From Fortune 500 enterprises to first-hire startups, the leadership problem changes with the phase. We bring off-market reach, defensible comp, and a process that fits where you are, whether you're standing a GCC up, scaling it past the bar, or competing for talent against centres ten times your size.

Who We Serve · Fortune 500

At Fortune 500 scale, a senior mis-hire is a board-level problem.

Your GCC runs mission-critical work and the leadership bench is watched from headquarters. The hires that matter are senior, scarce, and visible. We bring off-market reach, comp you can defend, and a process built for governance.

01 · Reach the few
Off-market search for settled senior leaders
The leaders you want are inside peer companies, not on the market. We map the qualified universe and approach discreetly, with a reason your enterprise is the right next move, so the shortlist is people no advertised search would have reached.
02 · Defend the number
Comp intelligence finance can stand behind
We build the band from comparable placements with the working shown, so it's a number headquarters and finance can defend, not a guess. Credible to the candidate, and to the people who have to sign off on it.
03 · Run a governed process
An audit trail that stands up to scrutiny
We run a structured, documented process with a clean trail, so the search holds up to enterprise governance and the decision is one you can explain. Rigour where it matters, without slowing the hire that matters more.
Who We Serve · GCCs in Set-Up Phase (0–100)

The first ten hires decide what the next two hundred look like.

Standing up a GCC in India is a leadership problem before it's a real-estate one. The anchor hires set the bar, the culture, and the credibility everyone after them is recruited against. We bring the market read and the senior bench to start it right.

01 · Read before you commit
City, supply, and comp for the build
Before the first hire, we give you the availability and comp picture across the cities you're weighing, so the location and the bands are set on evidence. The market read that tells you the build is viable, and where.
02 · Land the anchors
Senior leaders who'll bet on a plan
We approach the senior people who can anchor a new centre, and we make the case credibly, scope, ownership, and the comp that justifies the move. The first leaders set the standard the rest of the build is measured against.
03 · Build the rhythm
From first hires to first hundred
Once the anchors are in, we help you scale the bench beneath them without losing the bar, with managed hiring that holds quality as volume climbs. The set-up and the scale follow the same standard.

Who We Serve · GCCs in Growth Phase (100–1,000+)

Moving from executing the work to owning it needs a different leader.

A growing GCC reaches a point where the parent wants it to own outcomes, not just deliver tasks. That shift needs second-wave leaders who can take charge of a charter, and a hiring engine that scales the team beneath them without letting the quality bar slip. We bring both.

01 · Find the owners
Leaders who take charge of a charter
We find senior people who have moved a centre from execution to ownership before, and assess for the judgment that shift demands, not just functional skill. The leaders who can hold ambiguity and lead other leaders.
02 · Scale to the bar
Managed hiring that holds quality under volume
As the team grows, we run hiring that keeps the standard intact, screening to the bar even when the volume pressure is highest. So the centre's reputation with the parent strengthens as it grows, instead of softening.
03 · Hire for tenure
Retention-aware in a market that poaches
Growth markets churn, and a scaling centre is a target for every competitor hiring nearby. We weigh tenure and motivation, not just the CV, so the people you add stay through the next phase rather than leaving for the next offer.
Who We Serve · Mid-Market GCCs (500–2,000+)

You're hiring against centres ten times your size, and you can still win.

Mid-market GCCs compete for the same senior leaders as the giants, often without the brand recognition or the deepest band. What you have is scope, proximity to decisions, and a real seat at the table. Told well and priced sharply, that wins more often than size does.

01 · Sharpen the case
Make your scope the reason to join
We help you frame what a senior leader actually gets at your centre, more ownership, closer access, room to shape, and we carry that story credibly to candidates. The pitch is where the mid-market out-competes the giant.
02 · Price to the rupee
A band with no room for error
With less margin on comp, the band has to be exactly right, high enough to win the person, not a rupee higher than it needs to be. We benchmark precisely so you compete without overpaying your way past a mistake.
03 · Target the right fit
Find the people your scope suits best
Some senior leaders want the marquee logo; others want the seat where they can actually shape the work. We find the second kind, the people for whom your centre is the better move, not a consolation prize.
Who We Serve · Startups & Scaleups

You need a leader who can build it and scale it, not one or the other.

A startup or scaleup hire has to do two jobs: get hands dirty building from nothing, and have the range to lead the team that comes next. We find the people with both, and we make sense of comp and equity in a market that prices them every which way.

01 · Assess for range
Builders who can also scale
We assess for whether someone can genuinely do both jobs, build from nothing and lead the team that follows, not just claim the stage they're most comfortable in. So you hire once, for the next two years, not the next two months.
02 · Move at your pace
Fast enough for a fast company
Startups can't run a three-month process for a role they needed last quarter. We come in with the market mapped so you move quickly, while still assessing for the range that matters. Speed without the cost of a re-hire.
03 · Make the package legible
Cash and equity a candidate can weigh
We help frame the cash-and-equity offer so candidates can compare it honestly against a big-company alternative, instead of over- or under-valuing the equity. Fewer offers lost to a number neither side understood.
