We agree on a plan

The first 30 minutes are free. You share your hiring challenge - I'll tell you exactly how I'd approach it and whether I'm the right partner for it.

Does this sound familiar?

You've been interviewing for months. No one quite fits.

Your job posts attract applicants - but not the ones you actually want.

You don't have a dedicated recruiter, and hiring is eating your founders' time.

Senior specialists don't apply to companies they've never heard of. You need someone to headhunt them.

You've tried agencies before. The process felt impersonal. The CVs were generic. The fit wasn't there.

You need 5 developers in 3 months, but you can't justify a full-time internal recruiter.

How I'm different

I don't send you 30 CVs and disappear. On average, I present 5–7 candidates - and 8 or 9 out of 10 are a genuine match. I work as your partner, not your vendor. Your company's story, culture and values are what I sell to candidates - not just the job description.

FAQ

Common questions

What types of roles do you specialize in?

Tech and product roles - engineers, tech leads, product managers, data specialists, and C-level positions. I work best when the role requires niche expertise or a targeted headhunting approach, not just posting and waiting.

What industries do you work with?

Primarily tech, SaaS, fintech and digital product companies - from early-stage startups to scale-ups across Estonia and Europe.

How does full-cycle recruitment pricing work?

My fee is a percentage of the hired candidate's annual gross salary. An upfront engagement fee applies. Every placement includes a 4-month guarantee period. All fees include VAT 24%.

What happens during the guarantee period?

If the hired candidate leaves or the placement doesn't work out within 4 months, I run a replacement search at no additional fee.

How quickly can we start?

Typically within 1 week of signing the agreement. I move fast once the briefing is done.

What's the difference between your two recruitment options?

Full-cycle headhunting is for companies that need one or a few key hires - I work per placement and charge a percentage fee. Fractional embedded is for companies that need sustained TA support over a period - I join your team on a fixed rate and run multiple recruitments simultaneously.

Do you work with companies outside Estonia?

Yes. I work with companies across Europe. Sessions and briefings happen online; sourcing is done remotely across any market.
