About Brandon Runkel
I work with companies to build recruiting into how they operate, not just something they outsource when they’re under pressure.My work focuses on fractional and embedded hiring models, helping organizations access senior recruiting capability without the rigidity or cost of traditional internal teams or high-pressure contingency firms.I’ve worked across Eyecare, Healthcare, Technology, and Executive Search, operating inside client environments to scope roles, execute searches, and deliver outcomes aligned with long-term business needs.In 2026, I began co-building Fractional Labs, a bench-driven model designed to deploy proven operators (Director, VP, C-suite) into organizations on a fractional, interim, or embedded basis. The model formalizes work I’ve been doing for years, turning recruiting execution into a scalable delivery system.I’ve worked across retained, contingent, and embedded models, but now focus on approaches that prioritize clarity, accountability, and durable results.If you’re looking for recruiting leadership, not just resumes, I’m always open to a conversation.
