Hire contracting and product executives in India
Hiring contracting talent is a margin decision. Screen for negotiated outcomes with numbers, and for judgement on allocation risk rather than pure relationship claims.
Why contracting and product executives are hard to hire
The pool is small, senior and rarely applies to open postings. Most moves happen through direct approach.
What we screen for
- Negotiated rate improvements with numbers
- Allocation and release judgement
- Supplier portfolio depth
What the contracting and product executive will own
- Negotiate rates, allocation and release periods with suppliers
- Load and maintain seasonal rates
- Build packages with defined margin structures
- Review supplier performance and renegotiate

Frequently asked questions
When do we pay?
Only when a candidate joins. There is no retainer and no fee for shortlists that do not convert.
What if the hire does not work out?
There is a replacement window on every placement, so a hire that drops off early is replaced rather than re-billed.
How fast can we see profiles?
Most mandates get a first screened shortlist within a few working days, because we recruit only inside travel and hold a live pool.
