Meet Our Founders


Amy Marti Partner / Co-Founder

Dedicated to creating value for C-suite executives through expertise in strategy, leadership development, succession planning, recruitment, and retention.

“I guide thriving organizations to navigate change. I'm passionate about connecting exceptional talent with forward-thinking organizations, ensuring both professional and organizational success.”

April Sarraille Partner / Co-Founder

Experienced retained recruiter, spanning successful placements over all functional areas of an executive leadership team in wide-ranging companies: publicly held, private equity (PE)-backed, family offices, independent investors, non-profits, and foundations.

“I focus on fully understanding the company, role in question, challenges, success metrics, and culture to best determine the appropriate fit.”


“I wanted to reach out to you to thank you for your support, responsiveness, and care throughout this process. From the very beginning, you have been transparent and centered on my goals and needs. You made space to connect to debrief interview rounds, and ensure I had the information I needed to navigate a fast moving process. Each stage of the process had clear meeting structures and goals, and the videos with the CEO and other members helped me assess the opportunity quickly. Highly recommend working with April to find your dream job!”

— D.G., Head of Product

“April recently completed a Head of Product search for us in 72 days, 14 of which I was out of the office. Her team quickly understood our company and the challenges we needed to solve with this important hire. The three top candidates had vastly different backgrounds allowing me to evaluate the potential offeree from many perspectives. We are thrilled with our final selection and look forward to working with April and the team again.”

— J.H., CEO
