For Employers
Hire the people who will build your next chapter.
From a single critical leadership hire to building out a team, Lotus Scout runs focused, confidential searches that put strong candidates in front of you fast.
Roles we fill
Practice areas
Executive Leadership
C-suite, VP, and general management hires, where one decision shapes the company for years.
Management
Directors and people leaders in operations, finance, HR, and project delivery.
IT & Technology
Software engineering, infrastructure, cloud, data, security, and technology leadership.
Engineering
Electrical, mechanical, civil, controls, and project engineers, from individual contributors to department heads.
Sales & Business Development
Account executives, sales leaders, and BD teams who carry a number and grow revenue.
Energy
Solar, storage, wind, grid, and utilities talent. Our roots are in energy recruiting through Verde Talent.
Engagement options
Choose the model that fits the hire
Every engagement starts with a scoping call. We'll recommend the model that makes sense, which isn't always the most expensive one.
Retained Executive Search
For C-suite, VP, and other critical leadership roles. You get a dedicated, exclusive search with market mapping, a structured candidate slate, and regular progress reports.
Contingency Recruiting
For management, technical, engineering, and sales roles. You pay only when you hire, and you still get candidates we've screened properly.
Team & Project Hiring
For multiple hires: a new office, a product launch, or scaling a sales or engineering team. One partner and one process, with pricing for the full scope.
Our process
What working with us looks like
Discovery
An in-depth intake with you and key stakeholders on scope, must-haves, culture, compensation, and timeline.
Market mapping
We build a target list of companies and people and run direct, personal outreach. Posting a job ad is not the strategy.
Shortlist
Screened, interested candidates with written summaries covering experience, motivations, and compensation expectations.
Offer & onboarding
We coordinate interviews, run references, help close the offer, and check in after the start date.
What you can expect
Our commitments to every client
One point of contact
The person who scopes your search is the one who runs it.
Regular updates
A clear view of pipeline and progress, without having to chase us.
Confidentiality
Discreet handling of replacement and stealth searches.
Candid advice
Straight feedback on compensation, the market, and the role itself.
