Executive Search FAQ

Why Our Executive Search Stands Out

Propel is a leader in recruiting top-tier tech executives for global leadership roles within the fast-paced global tech ecosystem. With 17 years of experience and an unmatched international network, we source executives who excel in expertise and leadership. Our global desk supports multinational companies in addressing their talent needs across the world, while we manage a thriving community of tech leaders.

What Sets Our Services Apart

We focus exclusively on senior executive roles, leveraging the global tech innovation ecosystem to access elite candidates not typically available through traditional channels. Our approach guarantees a strategic and cultural fit tailored to your organization's unique needs.

Why Choose Our Tech Executive Search?

We provide unparalleled access to top tech leaders, combined with deep industry insights and a strong commitment to confidentiality. Our focus is on aligning candidates with your strategic and cultural goals, ensuring long-term success for your organization.

Our Approach to Tech Executive Recruitment

Our process includes in-depth consultations, targeted research, and discreet outreach. For non-confidential roles, we actively promote your company’s brand in the global market. We conduct thorough candidate assessments, provide detailed reference checks, and offer comprehensive support throughout the final placement, with follow-ups to ensure a seamless integration and long-term success.

Our Specialized Tech Roles

We specialize in filling high-impact roles such as CTO, CIO, CPO, and VP Engineering, with a focus on leaders who can leverage the innovation potential of the global tech sector to drive your organization forward.

Timeline for Executive Search

Our searches typically take 8 to 12 weeks, with a focus on quality and fit. We are committed to completing the process, even if it takes longer for unique or challenging roles.

Service Costs Overview

Our fees are structured with a focus on transparency and professionalism, directly tied to the executive's first-year total compensation. Placements typically range from 125-165K CHF/Euro, ensuring you receive clear value for your investment. This approach reflects the high level of expertise we bring to securing top-tier leadership talent, providing you with long-term benefits and a significant return on investment.

Safeguarding Confidentiality Throughout the Search

Examples of Our Success Stories

We maintain strict confidentiality protocols to protect your strategic interests and candidate privacy. We share only essential information at each stage to facilitate progress without compromising security.

We provide anonymized case studies that showcase our proven success in the global tech sector. Recently, we led the establishment of an innovation and research lab specializing in top-tier cybersecurity talent for a leading multinational tech corporation. This reflects our ability to deliver impactful, high-level solutions that drive innovation and business growth.
