Our search fee model:
Green Lion recruits on a contingency basis, meaning our clients only owe us a search fee if we successfully fill the open position. Most executive search firms operate on a retained model where clients are locked into a search fee before the firm produces quality candidates.
Advantages of our fee model for companies:
- Free to try us; no risk or commitment at the beginning of the search.
- Our total search fee is typically 24% less than our competition.
- If you decide to hire someone through your own network, you’re not on the hook to pay us a search fee (you would with retained firms).
- We have the highest motivation to work hard throughout the search as we are only paid for successful performance.
We believe the retained search model is flawed and have decided to offer the Austin market an alternative. We’re confident in our ability to find the best candidates for your next executive search.
*All services to candidates are always free.

Case Studies – Austin, TX Executive Search
VP of Finance – National Transportation Firm
Search Overview:
Large national transportation and logistics firm needed a VP of Finance with particular industry experience to take on a leadership role managing 50+ people. Over eight staffing agencies recruited on the position for over ten months.
Solution Summary:
We were able to find a spot-on candidate by networking with other similar candidates throughout the target market- one such candidate happened to know an individual who was not on LinkedIn or any other social networking platform. The search was successful and closed 6 weeks after we received the job order.
Chief Financial Officer – Top 20 US Venture Capital Firm
Search Overview:
High growth, large venture capital firm relocated their corporate headquarters to Austin, TX and simultaneously needed to hire a new CFO. Firms of this size are not prevalent in Austin, which makes it very difficult to find local candidates. The firm has complex funds and needed to revamp multiple processes to address significant growth.
Solution Summary:
We successfully sourced five strong candidates from different cities with interest in relocating to Austin. Our client then progressed through multiple interviews before deciding on two finalists. Final interviews occurred, and they successfully hired an all-star candidate from NYC with significant, relevant experience. Due to our success, we filled two more VP-level roles for the same firm!
Chief Financial Officer – PE Portfolio Company
Search Overview:
High, growth technology manufacturer needed to hire their first CFO to navigate growing revenue domestically and internationally. Multiple skill sets were needed, including technology manufacturing industry experience, PE relationship experience, international entity and foreign currency, and hands-on leadership experience.
Solution Summary:
We conducted a deep dive into direct industry competition, utilizing multiple data mining resources. We began actively reaching out to relevant candidates and started networking, sourcing multiple strong candidates with all the required skill sets. Three candidates ended up making it to the final round, and an incredibly talented candidate was successfully hired. Our client had a tough time deciding as all three were strong enough to get hired for the role and possessed different strengths that could all be useful.
