Boutique executive search
When a hire really matters,
you want one person who knows exactly what you’re looking for.
Coterie partners with founders and lean teams at high-growth consumer, SaaS, and AI companies to build teams that last.
“With us, it’s just us — direct, hands-on, and genuinely invested in getting it right.”
— the two of us
Our approach
A network, built differently.
We’re former colleagues turned best friends, now business partners, running a search firm the way we always wished search firms worked. Relationship-first, hands-on, and genuinely invested in the outcome, not just the close.
That means acting as a strategic hiring partner to founders and lean teams as they scale. We get close to the mandate, the team, and the culture before a single candidate is sourced because finding the right fit, and one that lasts, is the whole point.
