The decisions you can't afford to get wrong.
You know what one great person can do for your organisation. You also know what the wrong one costs you: months of time, money, and momentum.
And most recruiters don't know your world. You end up explaining sport to them, then sifting through CVs that were never right.
You deserve better than that.
What you get with Cornerwork
People who already get your world
Every candidate you meet understands sport and what your organisation is trying to do.
A shortlist you'd hire from
A few strong people, each one worth your time. No sifting.
Your time back
You focus on running your organisation. You only step in to meet the best.
A hire that lasts
Someone who fits your team, not just the job description, so they stay and grow with you.
Let us know your needs
Two ways to work with us, depending on the role.
Key hire
You need one great person in a role that matters. You only pay when they start.
Executive search
You're hiring a chief executive, director or board member.
How it works for you
You tell us who you need
One short call about the role, your team and what good looks like to you.
You meet the best people
A shortlist of candidates already checked against your brief, with honest notes on each.
You make the hire
We handle the offer and the details, and check in once they've started.
Your search gets full attention
As a boutique business and talent advisory, we work with a small number of organisations at a time. So your role is never at the bottom of a pile, and the same senior person looks after you from the first call to the first day.
The best talent, brought to you
The best people in sport rarely apply to job adverts. We know where they are and bring them to you.
Your questions
What does it cost?
For key hires, a percentage of first-year salary, and you only pay once your new hire starts.

We are a global agency. We find talent for sports businesses all over the world.
Will my search stay confidential?
Always. Nothing about your role is shared without your permission.
