ScalingPPLI help founders and C-level teams make critical hires without the typical headhunter markup or misaligned incentives.After watching too many startups burn 6+ months and 6 figures on the wrong recruiting approach, I built ScalingPPL: a white-label recruiting partner with fixed pricing, milestone-based payments, and zero incentive to push expensive candidates.What we do differently:→ 90% offer acceptance rate (industry avg:~60%)→ 24 days average time-to-hire (vs. 45-60 days market standard)→ 2 days to first interview (not weeks)→ Fixed-fee pricing (no % of salary games)→ Operator-led recruiting (business generalists, not classic headhunters)Who we work with:VC-backed startups (pre-seed to Series C), scale-ups, SMEs, and listed companies across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, USA, Canada, UK, and Australia. Clients include some of the fastest-growing companies in e-commerce, AI/ML, SaaS, and fintech.Specialties: Executive search, technical recruiting, go-to-market hires, leadership roles, hard-to-fill positions, founder-led recruiting, startup talent acquisition, scale-up hiring, white-label recruiting.If you\'re scaling, tired of the old agency model, and need a sparring partner who actually understands your business — let\'s talk. h•••@scalingppl.com | scalingppl.com
