I love business building, from my first job building a search practice on Wall Street, to launching my first agency in 2009 to scaling and leading GTM teams at technology businesses like Hired.com, harri.com and porch.com.

I founded Beacon in 2019 not to create another recruitment agency, but as a vehicle to partner and build with ambitious founders and leaders.

Visionary leaders need builders who share their passion, care about their long-term success and are as invested in their business as they are.

Building and partnership are core to who we are and what we do. Exceptionalism, pride, craftsmanship, expertise, dedication – these are the traits we instill in our team, expect from our partners and seek on their behalf in the talent market.

Why work with us

We partner with VC/PE backed businesses operating in industries spanning; Saas Software, B2B Services, Consumer Software, Healthcare, and Fintech.

Within these industries, our specializations are 70% Go-to Market (GTM) and 30% Engineering, Product & Design (EPD).

Our partners bring us in when they have a critical leadership hire where they can’t afford to miss and when they are executing a scale-up and need a dedicated partner who can accelerate growth.

In both cases, we follow the same, simple process;

1. Aim — Agree on the business goal and turn it into a clear scorecard.
2. Find — Map the market and ask our network.
3. Reach — Targeted outreach written by operators, not bots.
4. Prove — Structured interviews and references tied to the scorecard.
5. Decide — We help you compare, pick, and design the right offer.
6. Onboard — 90‑day plan and manager coaching so the hire sticks.
