mad Information

mad is an executive search firm for startups and scale-ups. We recruit the leadership roles nobody fills by posting a job ad, and very often the teams built around them: CTO, CRO, CFO, CPO, COO, CMO, VP Sales, Country Manager, then the tech, product and sales profiles that follow. making ambition deliver Our fees are public, which is rare in this business: 25% of the annual package, success-based, with a 20% deposit deducted from the final invoice and a 3-month replacement guarantee. Three models: success-fee mandate, RPO with a recruiter embedded in your team, or equity-based fees. We publish what others keep for sales meetings: a compensation benchmark for C-level roles in French startups with sources and methodology, and a comparison of fourteen search firms where our competitors are named, including the cases where you should choose them. What makes a hire possible is not the message, it is the timing. The best people are not available when you look for them, they become available when something moves above them. Our job is to know that market continuously. 499 placements and 2.63M euros in fees over 2022-2026. 85,000 profiles in our database. Offices in Paris and Montpellier, mandates in France and internationally. Expanding to France?
