In chess—and in business—every move matters.
But in hiring, the next move defines everything. The right leaders and high-impact contributors don’t just fill roles — they change outcomes. They determine whether your company scales, stalls, or gets left behind.
The Real Cost of Getting It Wrong

And every day a leadership or critical role sits open, momentum slips — decisions stall, teams drift, and your competitors advance.
It’s not just a missed hire; it’s lost time, lost confidence, and lost opportunity.

We’re a boutique firm by design — nimble, focused, and built for speed. With no layers and no handoffs, we deliver each search with rigor, precision, and execution that large firms simply cannot replicate.
Vivivantage is your advantage search partner—built for companies who expect more from their recruiting partners.
Our Services
Retained Search
When the stakes are highest, precision matters most.
Our retained model is built for C-level and mission-critical hires where confidentiality, rigor, and strategic alignment are essential.
We work as a true partner from intake to offer, leveraging deep networks and operator-level insight to deliver not just candidates—but the right leader.
Hybrid Search
The best of both worlds: The flexibility of contingency, the strategy of retained.
Hybrid search is ideal for high-impact roles where speed and quality must coexist. We tailor our process to your urgency and budget while still applying senior-level oversight, brand advocacy, and targeted outreach.
Contingency Search
Results first. You pay only when we deliver.
Our contingency model is ideal for fast-moving organizations hiring for roles below the C-suite.
With an emphasis on responsiveness and fit, we activate our network quickly to bring you vetted, high-quality candidates—backed by our commitment to excellence
