Who We Serve
Two contexts. The same operating model.
Venn delivers experienced fractional recruiting directors across venture-backed and PE-backed companies. The lifecycles are different, the decision-makers are different, the clocks are different — but the operating model that delivers a search is the same in both contexts.
One operating model. Calibrated for both contexts.
The Venn operating model — calibrated intake, structured slate, twenty-four-month retention — runs the same across both buyer types. What changes is the calibration: a venture-backed company at Series A and a PE-backed company at year three of a hold period have different hiring conversations. The director leading the search reads the context, then runs the same process tuned to it.
Choose your context
The lifecycles run on different clocks. The two pages tell you how.
Venture-backed
From Seed through Pre-IPO. The shape of every senior role shifts with the round. Venture-backed companies hire in patterns shaped by their next round, not by their last one.
For venture-backed companies →PE-backed
From post-close 100-day plans through exit prep. The hiring conversation is shaped by the value creation plan and the hold-period clock, not by the founder’s vision. Operating partners and portco CFOs run the search alongside Venn.
For PE-backed companies →Not sure which fits?
Talk through the role with a recruiting director who knows what changes between the two. No pitch — just a working conversation about the hire.
