What is the fee?
At Cause Leadership, we believe fixed-fee executive search and recruitment beats social impact organizations’ traditional percentage-based fee model.
Unlike the traditional model of search consulting, we charge a fixed fee for our executive search services, which eliminates the conflicts of interest of percentage fees. As a result, you don’t have to pay high commission fees to uncover top talent. You deserve pricing you can trust.
Our goal is to transform the way recruiters, employers and job seekers connect and improve the hiring and recruiting process for everyone involved.
