Executive Search & Leadership Recruitment

Targeted Executive & Niche Talent Acquisition

Senior executives and niche experts are often passive rather than active applicants. Peopable builds a target-market map, identifies relevant leaders, conducts discreet direct outreach and assesses interest, scope and leadership fit before candidates enter the formal interview process.

The intake defines the business outcomes, leadership scope, reporting relationships and evidence needed to assess each candidate. Target companies and candidate segments are refined against market feedback rather than relying only on job titles or inbound applications.

Discreet & Strategic Approach

Executive searches can support confidential succession, a new-market launch, transformation, functional leadership gaps or rare specialist hiring. We agree the disclosure approach with the client and manage market mapping, first contact and candidate communication in stages so sensitive business information is controlled throughout the search.

Before outreach, we agree when the company name, role context and sensitive details may be shared. A clear disclosure plan supports consistent candidate communication and helps protect confidential leadership changes.

C-suite and functional leadership search

Executive search can cover CEO, CFO, COO, CTO, HR and Talent Acquisition leaders, sales directors, operations leaders and other business-critical appointments. Each assignment is calibrated to company size, growth stage, decision-making responsibility and the outcomes expected from the role.

Leadership screening considers the scale of previous teams, transformation experience, commercial or functional results and motivation for the next appointment. The shortlist provides context for client interviews, including strengths, open questions and areas requiring further assessment.

Executive search process, timing and fees

A search typically includes intake, market mapping, direct outreach, structured interviews, shortlist presentation and client interview coordination. Reference checks, additional assessment and offer support are included where agreed in the assignment scope.

Timing depends on the leadership profile, market depth, candidate availability and client decision speed. Fees and payment stages are scoped around geography, complexity and delivery responsibilities; the engagement terms and reporting cadence are agreed before launch.

International executive search

Searches can cover Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, the Nordics and wider Europe, the USA, Canada and Australia. We choose target markets with the client based on role location, local market experience, language, compensation and relocation or remote-work requirements.

Cross-border assignments also need agreed communication hours and candidate mobility criteria. Recruiting support does not replace the employer's local employment, immigration or legal advice; those responsibilities should be defined alongside the search scope.
