Best Workplace Solutions offers two options for Executive and HR Leadership Recruitment services, both providing a unique declining fee structure, unmatched in the recruiting and search industry.
Option One: Retained Executive Search
Executive Search services are conducted remotely by an award-winning VP/Director of HR with extensive experience placing executives and C-suite candidates in a multitude of industries. Our declining scale fee structure is based on a twelve (12) week search window at a flat-fee of $36,000; independent of the target base salary of the executive being placed.
With our unique declining fee structure, if a qualified candidate is not located in the initial 12-week window, an amount of $1,000 per week of the original flat-fee is refunded to the Client, to a maximum of $18,000 refunded over an additional eighteen weeks of search services.
Option Two: Insourced HR Leadership Search
Our most popular service, and specific to Human Resources positions, we simultaneously conduct your retained search while working onsite to provide interim HR Leadership services — assuring continuity and the completion of critical functions delivered your HR department.
Insourced Search services are provided on a part-time basis (16-20/hours per week) by a qualified HR professional with experience and educational background suitable for the specific position being back-filled. This service is offered for executive-level roles (Directors, VPs, and similar-level) at a flat-fee of $6,000 per week for the first 16 weeks; and offered for HR Leadership roles (Managers, Associate Directors, and similar-level) at a flat-fee of $4,500 per week for the first 16 weeks.
If a qualified candidate is not located within the initial 16 weeks of service, additional weeks of Insourced Search Services are rendered at the following declining fee structure:
| ROLE LEVEL | Weeks 17-20 | Weeks 21-24 | Weeks 25-28 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Executive Level Insourced Search |
$5,000 Weekly | $4,000 Weekly | $3,000 Weekly |
| HR Leadership Insourced Search |
$3,500 Weekly | $2,500 Weekly | $1,500 Weekly |
If after 28 weeks, the Client wishes to continue Insourced Search Services, or simply continue Interim services without a search component, the fees for said rendered services will resume at the individual consultant’s regular hourly rate, which will be clearly communicated in a proposal letter.
