Why Concentriq?
Concentriq was founded with a guiding principle of putting its clients' needs first. While it may seem intuitive, having previously been a buyer of talent identification firms and other third party consulting services for many years, our experience, like many others, was consistently inconsistent. Seeing where others fell short, we set out to develop a long-term, transparent approach that insures alignment with our clients, resulting in their organization's long-term success.
Our key advantages include:
- 25 years of financial services experience serving in executive level roles.
- 12 years of executive search experience in individual hires, team lift-outs, and acquisitions.
- Highly competitive search fees that can be structured as a percentage of base salary (not total compensation) or a flat fee with caps.
- Heavy emphasis on success-based fees rather than up-front retainers or date-based payments.
- Flexible, long-term consultative partner rather than a transaction-oriented vendor.
- Deep candidate networks which are accessed efficiently resulting in shorter search times.
- All candidates are personally vetted internally by our senior team with no outsourcing.
- Minimal off-limits restrictions.
- Management consulting background spanning organizational design, compensation and incentives structuring, succession planning, product creation/distribution, and vendor management.

Thought Leadership
Follow our latest news and thoughts which focuses exclusively on talent identification, compensation planning, management consulting, and market research.
As former buyers of executive search services, we are well aware of the benefits and drawbacks of using such providers. Concentriq was founded to address what we see as the “pitfalls” of the search relationship. Our goal is to create a more personal connection with our clients by gaining a deeper understanding of their organizational culture, offering flexibility in partnership structure, and using our industry experience to personally vet each candidate we put forward to our clients. It is these aspects coupled with our long-term consultative approach that allows us to offer our clients a differentiated search experience.
