Our executive search practice provides our clients with access to our global talent network and a selection of reputable, high calibre candidates whom we have come to know by being embedded in the tech community since 2007. We have led successful C-level, Site Lead, VP & Director searches for brand-name startup, growth stage & large tech leaders.
Our engagements are a collaborative partnership. Starting with our kickoff, we are aligned, provide full visibility, and deliver candidates that are on-the-mark. We maximize close rates in a highly competitive environment. gdR is the most trusted executive search partner in the tech industry.
We understand that our client wants to ‘raise the bar’ with each new team member. gdR’s clients range from startups needing to build their team with people that can excel in a startup environment to established leaders that need to add specialized talent from companies that have seen next-level scale. Ultimately, we are able to bring you a selection of high calibre candidates that have impact. Our team recruiting practice recruits individual contributors (e.g., engineer, data scientist, product manager, designer, etc), lead, staff, principal and manager positions.
Similar to our executive search engagement, we are a collaborative and committed partner our clients trust. While team recruiting is a contingent fee structure, our engagement takes on many attributes from our retained searches.
