Omada Search

When Katie Marriott and Jessyca Shuttleworth met as co-workers, they realized recruiting wasn't just about filling as many jobs as possible. Omada was formed on the foundation that recruiting is about building relationships. Katie and Jessyca value their clients and work to build relationships based on trust and collaborative energy. As their recruiting style developed, they realized it centered around one theme: TEAM. ?? Omada" is the Greek word for "team". Katie and Jessyca explored many options when naming their company. They sought a name that would show who they are and what they stand for. Ultimately, no matter how many words, names, or phrases they came across, they continued to come back to "Omada". And that is why Omada exists today – to help you build and grow your team to ensure your company’s longevity and success! ?? Looking to succeed in 2024? Contact us today!

Hiring for on-site roles in remote areas comes with unique challenges—fewer candidates, limited local talent, and higher competition. That’s where true headhunting makes the difference. Here’s how we make it happen: ?? Targeting competitor networks – We identify companies with similar roles nearby and proactively reach out to potential candidates. ?? Leveraging referrals – In small towns, connections matter. Even if a candidate isn’t the right fit, they often know someone who is. ?? Looking beyond job titles – A Manager at one company might be a Senior elsewhere. We focus on skill sets, not just titles, to find hidden talent. ?? Digging deeper with technology – Many professionals don’t update their LinkedIn profiles, but past experience matters. We track career histories to uncover the right fit. ?? Earning client trust – The best candidates don’t always look perfect on paper. Our vetting process ensures they have the right skills, even if their background looks different at first glance. Recruiting for tough-to-fill locations takes creativity, persistence, and a true headhunter’s mindset. And that’s exactly what we bring to every search. Struggling to hire in a remote area?

January was a big month for Omada Search! Two of the placements we made – with two separate clients – were because the company had initially made an offer to a candidate they sourced themselves and both of those candidates declined. Why did they decline? Because of salary misalignments. They weren’t working with an external recruiter, like us, and didn’t have the compensation intel to make a competitive offer. Cue the frustration and time wasted. Too many companies are waiting until the offer stage to talk about compensation. And it’s costing them great hires. Here’s the truth: Compensation should never be a last-minute conversation. Candidates deserve clarity, and companies need to align expectations early to avoid wasted time. That’s why at Omada Search, we reinforce salary discussions at every stage—so there are no surprises when an offer is made. If you’re hiring, don’t make compensation an afterthought. Let’s set the right expectations from day one. Need a hiring partner who gets it?

Something that’s been on my mind lately: job titles. I can’t tell you how often candidates come to me looking for their next opportunity, driven by the desire for that next title—whether it’s Manager, Director, or VP. But here’s the thing: titles don’t always tell the full story. What matters is the scope of the role. A Marketing Coordinator at a small company might do everything from social media to PR, while at a large company, that same title might mean handling just one specialized function. In accounting, a Controller at a small company might be an individual contributor, handling everything from A to Z, while a Controller at a Fortune 500 company is likely managing teams without doing anything hands-on. At Omada Search, we dig deeper. When working with clients, we don’t just match job titles—we understand the true responsibilities behind them. That’s how we ensure candidates find the right fit, not just the right title. So, before making a career move, ask yourself: Do I want a new title, or do I want real career growth? Let’s talk about it. ?? #jobtitles #executiverecruiter #recruiting #careergrowth

We thrive on helping companies find the right talent to drive their business forward. Recently, we partnered with several organizations to fill key roles that required a mix of industry-specific experience, leadership, and strategic vision. ? Chief Financial Officer – A mid-market company needed a hands-on CFO to streamline accounting processes and serve as a strategic business partner. ? Controller – A private equity-backed healthcare company was looking for someone with strong accounting expertise, leadership skills, and private equity experience. ? Production Manager – This role required a specialized candidate with a chemical background and deep knowledge of safety regulations. ? Program Manager – A critical role focused on process improvement and influencing others without direct reports. ? Assistant Controller – Another private equity-backed company needed someone with strong synergy with the Corporate Controller and expertise in process improvement. ? Customer Service Specialist – A temporary project-based role with a trusted client we’ve partnered with before. ? Regional Controller – A rural-based opportunity that required true headhunting to source the right local talent. What stands out across these placements? The demand for specialized expertise, particularly in private equity-backed companies, process improvement, and people leadership. Every placement represents more than just filling a role—it’s about making an impact. Whether you're hiring or looking for your next opportunity, we’re here to help.

The right questions uncover the right connections. ?? When we interview candidates, we’re not just checking boxes. We’re diving deep into what drives them, their goals, and what they’re truly looking for. Take this question, for example: 1?? What’s important to you in your next career opportunity? This question helps us uncover insights beyond job titles and resumes. A candidate might say they’re seeking remote work because they’re balancing caregiving responsibilities or that they want to step back from leadership because they’ve been in high-pressure management roles for years. We also ask: 2?? What are your compensation expectations? Let’s face it—money can be an awkward topic, but it’s why we work! One candidate recently shared they’d been underpaid for years and weren’t sure how to voice their worth. We helped them feel comfortable discussing their salary expectations, which ultimately matched what our client could offer. 3?? Why did you leave previous roles? We once met a candidate who’d had three jobs in two years, all due to industry-wide layoffs. While the frequency was concerning on paper, their story painted a picture of resilience. There are also situations where their reasons for leaving are cause for concern. Recruiting is about more than filling roles—it’s about understanding people and creating long-term success stories.

Talking about compensation can feel like walking a tightrope, but it doesn’t have to be. ?? We’ve mastered the art of salary conversations—not just for candidates, but for our clients too. Here’s how we make this process a win-win: For candidates, when we ask 'What would make this role worthwhile to you?' we uncover more than just numbers. For example, a recent candidate shared their salary target was $130,000 but they were also prioritizing a shorter commute and flexible hours over everything else. By knowing the whole picture early, we matched them with a client who not only offered a competitive salary, but also the flexibility they needed to thrive. Even after receiving multiple offers, some higher than our clients, the candidate still accepted our clients offer because it encompassed all the elements of what they were looking for. For our clients, this clarity eliminates the guesswork. Imagine getting to the final stages of hiring only to find out the expectations don’t align—it’s frustrating and wastes precious time. We avoid this entirely by: ?? Screening candidates whose expectations match your budget. ?? Managing difficult conversations with professionalism and care. ?? Saving you from investing in candidates who won’t be a fit long-term. Recruiting is about making the process seamless for everyone involved. With Omada Search, you can trust us to handle these critical conversations so you can focus on finding your next great hire. Learn more about our process at omadasearch.com ??
