Start your search with CharterSlate

CharterSlate recruits experienced professionals at manager level and above for professional services firms across the United States, including consulting and advisory practices, CPA firms, law firms, and marketing agencies. When you submit a hiring brief, you give our consultants the foundation to scope the role, map the market, and approach qualified candidates discreetly.

A strong brief covers the essentials. Start with the job title, practice area or function, seniority, and reporting line. Set out the must-have experience and credentials, the compensation range, and your hiring timeline. Confirm the work location, your hybrid or remote policy, and whether the search is confidential. The more precisely you define these points, the sharper the shortlist we can deliver.

Use this checklist as a starting point for your brief:

  • Role definition: job title, practice area or function, seniority, and who the role reports to.
  • Requirements: must-have experience, technical skills, licenses or credentials such as CPA or bar admission, and the qualifications you treat as nice-to-have.
  • Compensation: base salary range, bonus or partner track, and any equity or profit-share arrangement.
  • Logistics: office location, hybrid or remote policy, travel expectations, and start date.
  • Process: your hiring timeline, interview stages, decision makers, and whether the search is confidential.

What happens next

Once we receive your brief, a CharterSlate consultant reviews it and contacts you to confirm requirements, discuss current market conditions, and agree on a search approach. If you would prefer to talk first, call us at +1 888-202-9809 or email contact@charterslate.com. Experienced professionals exploring their next move are welcome to reach us through the same channels.

From there, the search follows a clear sequence: we map the relevant market, approach and assess candidates against your criteria, and present a shortlist with written assessments. We stay involved through interviews, offer discussions, and resignation, up to the start date.
