Executive Search Manager (Proven Rainmaker) — Chicago, IL | On-site About the Company At Crucial Hire, we’re not here to be the biggest; we’re here to be the best. For nearly a decade, we’ve been trusted advisors to CHROs, CEOs, and Boards across Fortune 500s, PE-backed firms, and high-growth companies. We operate with precision, discretion, and results—and we’re inviting an established search professional to raise the bar with us. About the Role This is not a role for researchers or junior associates. It’s a stage for a proven rainmaker —someone with loyal clients, a history of $600K+ in annual billings, and the drive to own their success without corporate politics. Be the bigger fish — Your clients see you, not layers of account managers. Elite work, no politics — Partner directly with our Founder on marquee retained searches. Limitless upside — Uncapped earnings and the freedom to run searches your way. C-suite credibility — Leverage Crucial Hire’s 20+ years of warm CHRO/CEO relationships while deepening your own. Responsibilities Convert warm introductions into retained engagements and expand your portfolio. Lead national HR leadership searches ( $100K–$500K+ total comp). Own and grow relationships with senior executives and Boards. Operate with autonomy in a high-trust, entrepreneurial culture where results speak louder than politics. Qualifications Proven record of $500K+ annual billings in retained executive search ( $600K+ preferred). Established network of CHROs, CEOs, and decision-makers in the Fortune 2000 and PE-backed companies. History of loyalty and repeat business—clients who already call you first. Precision, follow-through, and boardroom-level presence. Degree from a respected university; experience with top search firms or corporate talent environments valued. Required Skills Demonstrated ability to win, deliver, and retain $500K+ in search revenue annually. Preferred Skills Experience leading high-stakes HR leadership searches. Strong consultative client relationship skills. Pay Range & Compensation Package Base/Draw: Minimal or negotiable (role is primarily commission-driven).

Structure: High commission, low bureaucracy—built for proven rainmakers. Location On-site in Chicago (Gold Coast & Loop) with client visits; remote-only candidates will not be considered. This Role Is Not For Job-hoppers looking for training wheels. Remote-only candidates, who cannot come to the Chicago Office or see clients in person. Recruiters without a proven retained (or high-end contingent) client portfolio.
