Industries We Serve — Leadership Executive Search
A bad leadership hire doesn't just cost a salary. It costs momentum.
Directors, VPs, and General Managers set the pace for everyone under them. We help Piedmont Triad companies fill those seats with people who can actually run the room — not just interview well in it.
A director or GM who isn't the right fit doesn't fail quietly. Projects stall, good people start updating their resumes, and the org chart becomes a workaround instead of a plan. We recruit leadership-level hires the same way we recruit everyone else — by understanding your business first, not just the job description. Direct hire, thoroughly vetted, and matched to how your company actually operates.
Challenge
What happens when a leadership hire doesn't work out?
A mis-hire at the leadership level doesn't show up as one open req. It shows up as missed deadlines, a flight risk on your best people, and a six-figurere-hire six months from now — on top of the salary you already paid.
- A director who can't get buy-in from their own team stalls every initiative they touch, not just their own.
- Replacing a failed leadership hire typically costs far more than the placement fee — in severance, backfill time, and the team members who leave in the meantime.
Solutions
Contract-to-Hire or Direct Hire Recruiting Solutions
We staff two ways, depending on what the role — and the risk — calls for.
- Contract-to-Hire: We recruit, screen, and place your candidate on US Enhanced's payroll for the first ~90 days (480 hours). We carry payroll, taxes, and workers' comp while you evaluate fit before making it permanent.
- Direct Hire: We recruit and screen for permanent, salaried placements that go straight onto your payroll from day one. Built for experienced professionals and key roles where speed and precision matter more than a trial period.
