What You Get

Executive Search Quality. Without the Retainer Pricing.

Private Candidate Portal

Every finalist has their own clean presentation page — executive summary, recruiter assessment, skills matrix. Share with your team via link. No attachments, no email threads.

Weekly Friday Updates

Every active search receives a structured Friday update. Pipeline status, interview feedback, next steps. You always know where your search stands.

Passive Candidate Strategy

The best candidates aren't applying anywhere. Our recruiters reach them directly through their professional networks — built over years in your market.

Offer Management

NRP leads the offer process. Negotiation strategy, competing offer guidance, counteroffers — we've seen every scenario and navigate them effectively.

Cultural Alignment Assessment

Beyond skills. NRP evaluates candidate work style, leadership approach, and cultural fit before a single resume lands in your inbox.

90-Day Replacement Guarantee

If a placement doesn't work out within the first 90 days, we replace them. No arguments, no re-negotiating fees. Our guarantee backs our confidence.
