How Are We Different?

At CJB Search Partners, we offer a unique combination of personalized service, broad access to top-tier candidates, and competitive pricing. Our approach ensures that our clients receive exceptional value for their investment.

Large National Firms

Charge 33-36% of first-year compensation plus expenses
Require payment within first 60 days, often before placement
Limited candidate pool due to client restrictions
Senior partners focus on sales while junior staff handle recruiting
Best suited for C-level searches at major corporations

Local/Smaller Firms

Fees range from 25% to large-firm rates
Mix of retainer and contingent payment models
Quality and capabilities vary significantly
Generally limited to local market recruiting

Fees

Our fees are significantly more affordable and are based solely on base salary, not total first-year cash compensation. We offer two flexible pricing plans and work on a more client-friendly basis ensuring fees are tied directly to success, not front-loaded costs.

Recruiting Ability

At CJB Search Partners, we limit ourselves to a select group of clients and ensure we never work with more than one or two clients per industry. This gives us the freedom and ability to recruit from the entire talent pool, without the restrictions faced by larger firms. Many candidates we present are not available to other search firms due to their recruiting constraints.

High-Touch Service

Because we intentionally limit the number of clients we work with, we are not overwhelmed by multiple, high-volume searches. This enables us to offer a personalized, hands-on approach for every search. Our clients benefit from dedicated, high-touch service and the full attention of our experienced team throughout the process.

At CJB Search Partners, we believe in providing exceptional service without the inflated fees or restrictions typically associated with other firms. Let us help you with a personalized approach tailored to your needs.
