And we stand behind it.

If your hire leaves within two years, we run the whole search again at no additional fee. Same national reach. Same vetting.

FAQ
-
Our fee is 25% of the role’s first-year base compensation (salary plus housing allowance, if offered): half when the search begins, and the balance when your candidate signs their offer. No hidden charges.
-
In almost every search, you’ll be interviewing qualified, vetted candidates within six weeks. From there, the pace depends on your interview process, and we’ll keep things moving.
-
Every placement carries a 24 month replacement guarantee. If your new leader leaves within two years, we run a new search at no additional fee.
-
We encourage every church to run its standard hiring protocols on every finalist, including the background check it already uses for all new staff. We’re glad to support any additional due diligence, like extended reference conversations or a review of ministry history, always with the candidate’s knowledge and consent.
-
Yes. We serve evangelical and non-denominational churches of every stream, and we’ve placed leaders in multisite churches across the country. Confidential searches are normal for us; if you’re replacing someone who hasn’t been told yet, we know how to handle that with care.
-
Yes, and we do it carefully. The best leaders are usually not looking. We approach them personally, we never share their name with your church without their permission, and we never recruit from a church we’re currently serving.
-
A point person who can make decisions, a few hours of your leadership team's time early in the search, and honest answers about your church. We handle everything else.
-
No. Every search we run is for a full-time role.
