What we do

One partner for both hiring models.

Permanent hiring or contractor staffing: you choose the model per role. We run both with the same team and the same quality bar.

Permanent Recruitment

Direct hire for technical and leadership positions, from developers to executives. Active search in the market, not a resume database.

  • Software, data, cloud, security and IT management
  • Leadership and executive search
  • Shortlist of 3 finalists with written assessments
  • Success fee: you only pay when you hire

Contractor Staffing

Staff augmentation in Brazil with a fully transparent markup. We source, screen, contract and manage the professional; you receive one monthly invoice.

  • Transparent markup, visible on every invoice
  • One monthly invoice per contractor
  • Zero local labor overhead for your company
  • Scale the team up or down as demand changes

Candidate Assessments

Standalone behavioral and competency assessments (DISC, behavioral inventory and situational judgment) you can plug into any hiring step.

  • DISC behavioral profile for every finalist
  • Single consolidated report per candidate
  • Comparative ranking for the same role
  • Open pricing, no subscription required

Contractor Staffing · Staff Augmentation

Staff augmentation with a transparent markup.

In this market, hidden markups of 50% or more are common, and they create exactly the problems you end up managing: underpaid professionals, low motivation and early turnover.

We do it differently. You always see what the contractor is paid and what our fee is, on every invoice. A fair margin in the open keeps your contractors well paid, engaged and easy to retain.

  • Transparent markup, visible on every invoice
  • One monthly invoice per contractor, zero local labor overhead
  • Sourcing, screening, contracting and management on our side
  • Ongoing, multi-role engagements with a partner-level point of contact
