A focused delivery lead aligns to your goals, directs the recruiters on your search, and stays accountable to you as your single point of contact. Scale from one contingent search to a fully embedded team.














Plenty of firms now lean on AI to screen candidates at volume. We use good tools too, but we don't let them make the call. Software can sort resumes; it can't tell whether a senior hire will thrive on your team. Every search is led by an experienced recruiter whose judgment is the point.
Your search gets real attention from one senior point of contact who knows your business.
We screen for capability and cultural fit, then stay engaged through the first 90 days.
First submissions in about 3 business days on PartnerHire, 5 to 7 on DirectHire — each one personally reviewed before it reaches you.
We focus on mid-level to senior professional and cleared roles, for teams that want senior attention on every search.
A sample — we've filled 80+ distinct role types. Don't see yours? Ask us — chances are we've placed it or one close to it.
Government contractors (primes and subcontractors), AI and technology companies, and commercial firms, from small and mid-size businesses to large service providers. Rooted in Northern Virginia and the D.C. metro, placing nationwide.
You need high-volume hourly, light-industrial, or temp staffing. We focus on professional and cleared hires where fit and retention matter more than headcount volume.
Named clients, real numbers. A few of the searches we've run.

The low-risk way to try us. One search, one role, billed only when a candidate is hired.
An embedded team inside your hiring process, scaling up and down with demand. A senior Client Delivery Lead is your single point of contact on every search.

Both PartnerHire Core and PartnerHire Complete charge a very low flat $1,000 per placement, never a percentage of salary. Many retained and RPO providers charge a steep 10 to 12% of first-year salary per placement fee on top of their retained fee. On a $150,000 hire, that is $1,000 with BizFirst versus $15,000 to $18,000 elsewhere.
