Our services.
Deep focus on contingency based permanent placement, supported by retained search and additional capabilities when the engagement calls for them.
Services
We built Schepmont Group around one primary service: contingency based permanent placement, done well, for companies that take hiring seriously. Our additional offerings exist to serve that core work and to support clients when their needs extend beyond a standard contingency search.
Industries we serveContingency Permanent Placement.
Our primary offering. Contingency placement means we are retained to find the right person for your role on a success-based model: no fee is owed unless and until you hire a candidate we present.
What is included in every contingency engagement:
- A detailed discovery call to define the role, the company, and culture fit
- Targeted sourcing and candidate outreach
- Full candidate screening and vetting before introduction
- Three to five top candidates presented within 5 to 10 business days of search start
- Interview scheduling and coordination through all rounds
- Feedback management between client and candidate
- Offer coordination and negotiation support
- Onboarding handoff and follow-through
- A 60-day replacement guarantee on every placement
Fee structure is discussed during the initial discovery call. Our rates are competitive within the executive search market and align with industry standards for the sectors we serve.
Retained Search.
For senior leadership roles, confidential searches, or specialized mandates where discretion and dedicated focus matter most, we offer retained search engagements.
Retained search is appropriate when:
- The role is at the executive or senior leadership level
- The search must remain fully confidential, including from current staff
- The candidate pool is highly specialized and requires exclusive focus
- The hiring timeline is time-sensitive and must be prioritized
Retained engagements are structured with an upfront commitment and a tighter service model, including dedicated search team hours, more frequent updates, and formal search progress reporting.
Additional capabilities.
Beyond our core placement work, we support clients with:
Market Intelligence
Understanding what the talent landscape looks like for a given role, geography, or industry. Useful for planning hires, benchmarking, and strategic workforce decisions.
Compensation Benchmarking
Current, grounded data on what roles are commanding in your market. Available during an active engagement or as a standalone exercise.
Confidential Searches
Discreet replacement searches, succession planning searches, or any situation where the search cannot be made public.
Our 60-day guarantee.
Every placement we make on a contingency basis is backed by a 60-day replacement guarantee. If a placement does not work out within 60 days of their start date, we return to work on the search at no additional fee.
The guarantee reflects how we approach every placement. Our incentive is to find the right person, not just to fill the seat. The structure of our business depends on candidates who stay.
What we do not do.
We do not place temporary or contract workers. Every engagement at Schepmont is for a direct hire, permanent placement.
If you are looking for temp staffing, contract-to-hire, or project-based labor, we are not the right firm. We will gladly point you toward one that is.
