Gratus Staffing represents employers, not candidates. We don't take candidate-initiated search assignments or provide job placement services on a candidate-paid basis. If you're a match for an active search, we'll reach out — the process always begins on our end.

For Candidates

We represent employers.
But we want to know you.

We maintain a network of senior Finance & Accounting professionals across our practice areas. If your background aligns with the roles we fill, we'd welcome adding you — we'll reach out when the right search arises.

How This Works

We reach out.
Not the other way around.

Our searches are conducted on behalf of client organizations — real estate developers, PE-backed platforms, financial services firms, and healthcare companies — who retain us to find specific leaders. We source from our network first, long before a role is ever posted publicly.

The best way to be considered for those searches is to be in our network before we're looking. Submitting your profile takes two minutes. We'll review it, and if your background fits what we place, we'll file you against relevant active and future searches.

There is no cost to candidates. There is no intake call. There is no process unless we call you.

What to expect after submitting: We review every submission. If your background aligns with our active searches, we'll reach out directly — typically within a few business days. If not, your profile stays in our network for future searches. We will not call you to pitch our services or follow up speculatively.
01

Submit Your Profile

Two minutes. Name, title, company type, comp range, and what you're looking for. No resume required — if we need it, we'll ask.

02

We File You Against Active Searches

We match your background against current and upcoming mandates. If there's a fit, we'll reach out directly to discuss the opportunity.

03

Confidentiality Is Absolute

Your information is never shared with any client without your explicit permission. We'll always tell you who we're presenting you to before we do it.

04

If We Move Forward Together

Full briefing on the organization and hiring manager before any call. Honest feedback throughout. Comp benchmarking if relevant. We represent you accurately — and tell you directly when a role isn't right.

What We Place

Senior Finance & Accounting roles
across four sectors

We focus on Director-level and above across Real Estate, Private Equity, Financial Services, and Healthcare. If your current title is below Director, we may not be the right fit — but you're welcome to submit and we'll let you know.
