Executive Search & Headhunting Agency - Hundred Plus HR
Finding the right leader isn’t just about resumes or titles. It’s about timing, trust, and, to some degree, intuition. At Hundred Plus HR, we specialize in executive search and headhunting that goes beyond keyword matching or shallow talent pools.
We’re not here to flood your inbox with profiles. We’re here to understand who you are, what your company actually needs, and then find the few people in the market (and sometimes outside of it) who can genuinely take you further.
We work with companies across the United States and Canada, offering cross-border insight and talent access that gives our clients a broader, and often overlooked, advantage.
Why Executive Search Still Matters
With AI-driven platforms and job boards everywhere, it might seem like headhunters are becoming obsolete. But that’s only true if you’re hiring to fill seats. If you're building a leadership team that can navigate uncertainty, shape culture, and make real decisions—that’s not a task for algorithms.
There’s nuance in assessing a senior candidate. A person might look perfect on paper, but... there's often more underneath. Sometimes it’s chemistry, sometimes it’s unseen limitations. You don’t always catch those things on a CV. We do.
We bring both experience and discretion to the process. Our team includes former C-level professionals, industry insiders, and career HR leaders who’ve sat on both sides of the table. We know the stakes. We’ve felt them ourselves.
What We Actually Do (And What We Don’t)
We're a premier executive search firm, yes. But that phrase gets thrown around a lot. So, here’s a clearer picture:
What we do:
-
Deeply consultative leadership search across sectors like tech, finance, healthcare, and consumer goods.
-
Strategic headhunting for passive talent, those not actively looking, but open for the right opportunity.
-
Confidential placements (very common at the executive level).
-
Cultural alignment assessments, an underrated, often missing piece in many failed hires.
-
Cross-border executive search in both U.S. and Canadian markets.
What we don’t do:
-
We don’t rush. A senior hire made too quickly often becomes a senior exit later.
-
We don’t copy-paste shortlists. Every search is tailored.
-
We don’t push candidates to fit just to close the search. That’s short-term thinking, and we’re not interested in it.
Our Process (It’s a Bit More Personal)
Most firms use a three-phase model: research, approach, deliver. We use that too, but, perhaps this sounds obvious, it’s how you do those things that makes the difference.
We start by asking the uncomfortable questions. Where has your hiring gone wrong before? What’s not working at the leadership level now? Who are your internal champions, and who might resist a new hire?
From there, we map the market, yes, but also adjacent markets. It’s not uncommon for a great COO to come from a completely different sector. Innovation often comes from the outside.
We spend time on storytelling. Your brand story, your leadership culture, it all needs to align with how we pitch the role. Top talent doesn’t just need a job; they want a mission that feels worth their time.
And no, we don’t “ghost” clients. Or candidates. Communication is consistent. Even if the update is, “Still waiting,” we say so.
Why Choose Hundred Plus HR?
There’s no single answer. Some clients come to us after failed hires. Others come through referrals. A few find us simply because they searched “top executive headhunting agency USA” or “executive recruiters Canada” and, well, landed here.
But if we had to sum it up?
We care more about getting it right than getting it fast. We do the work behind the scenes, the quiet calls, the second and third conversations. We challenge assumptions when needed. We listen more than we talk.
We’re not the flashiest firm. But we are relentless, thoughtful, and, for the right client, a powerful ally.
Let's Talk (Even If You're Not Sure Yet)
Whether you’re actively hiring, just starting to consider a change, or simply frustrated by what hasn’t worked before, we’re happy to start a conversation. No pressure.
Hundred Plus HR is here to help companies across Canada and the United States grow through leadership. Not just leadership in name, but in actual impact.
