  • Costs ~60% less than traditional agencies.

  • Removes ~90% of your hiring workload.

  • You own 100% of the process, knowledge, and candidate pipeline we build together.

Fees are agreed upfront — and if we don’t deliver, you don’t pay.

Scale support up or down. No tie-ins. No fixed overheads.

“How can Cohort cost less than agencies?”

Because our model is different.

We’re designed to work with the right companies over time, rather than maximising margin on individual hires. That lets us price fairly, focus on delivery, and invest in doing the work properly.

We choose to work with teams we believe in, and take full responsibility for making hiring work. That removes the need to price for short-term engagements, failed searches, or inflated commissions.

The result is high-quality in-house hiring, delivered through simple, proven practices — executed properly, every time.

    Working as your in-house talent function - if we don’t fill the role, you don’t pay.

    Well suited to one-off hires — and to teams who want to use low-volume hiring to start building long-term talent acquisition capability.

  • Group of people gathered around a wooden table in a modern, cozy cafe or kitchen, engaged in conversation, with bottles, bowls, and napkins on the table. The setting features natural light, wooden shelves with dishes and bottles, and a background of a kitchen area.

    Guaranteed scaling

    Best for: committed hiring plans
    Price: volume rate + delivery locked in

    For teams planning multiple hires, we guarantee both the hires and the price — with volume economics that significantly reduce the cost per role.

    We act as your in-house talent function, running hiring end-to-end, while strengthening how you hire with every role filled.
