The RoleAs a Partner, you own your own practice end-to-end — from winning clients to delivering the hires that close them out.

You bring the network, credibility, and commercial instincts to build a book of business in your function or geography, then lead delivery (personally, and over time through a team) to make sure it lands.

ResponsibilitiesOwn revenue and P&L for your practice, function, or geographyWin new clients — founders, executives, hiring leaders — by leveraging your existing network and credibilityGrow existing accounts into long-term, repeat partnerships with TechTreeSet commercial terms, pricing, and proposals for the deals you bring inAct as a senior advisor to owners, C-levels, investors, founders, and executives on hiring strategy and market conditionsLead delivery on your projects and hold the quality bar across every search in your practiceClose deals and close hires — you own the revenue on what you sign and deliverBuild, and over time manage, your own practice team as your book of business growsThis Role Wins WhenClients sign, accounts grow, hires land, and the practice is profitable.

That means deals you bring in convert into long-term partnerships, not one-off searches — clients keep coming back because you deliver, not just because you sold well. Your book of business grows through referrals and expansion as much as new logos, delivery quality stays high across every search in your practice, and the P&L reflects it: healthy margins, not just top-line revenue.
