About Position

Position is a boutique retained executive search firm focused on early stage startups primarily in consumer, crypto/fintech, climate tech, and SaaS. We have placed leaders across the executive suite giving us a unique perspective on how management teams fit together and differ from one industry to the next. Most recruiters at big firms will talk about their network of people. Yes, we’ve got 23k+ connections here on LinkedIn but that proves very little. We know companies… how and when they were built, when they hit inflection points, when they struggled, and how they overcame those struggles. The story behind each one of those data points is a person or a team of people. We then have a remarkable track record of engaging these highly targeted people and getting them excited about our client's opportunities and challenges. Finally, we guide candidates through the interview process and help our clients close the perfect hires.
