Executive Search
At what pay level is "Executive"?
We generally use $100,000 in total cash compensation as the entry point for our Executive Recruiting practice. By "total cash compensation", we mean both base salary plus the target annual bonus amount. (eg: $80,000 base salary and a target bonus payment each year of 25% or $20,000 for a total of $100,000).
Are there any exceptions to the above?
Yes, there are two. First, the Executive Recruiting Division also helps clients find qualified members for their Board of Directors. Board Members are part-time and so are not paid $100,000 per year.
The second exception is Interim Executives. These are people who work in an executive capacity, but for a temporary period of time. An example is a person who performs the CFO role for a company over a six month period as a temporary replacement for the permanent CFO who is away ill. In these cases, the Interim Executive does not earn $100,000.
