A sales hire fails in public. Everyone knows by the second quarter, and the real cost is not the fee, it is the territory that stood still for a year. Loom Haven Advisors has run sales search and executive sales recruiting since 2023, and it was built around that problem.
We build sales teams and we fill sales roles. Most of what we run is a passive search, because the people worth hiring are working and exceeding their number and are not reading job boards. The best person out there is almost never the best person that applied, and closing that gap is the whole job.
We look for true hunters: the people who open accounts that were not there before, hit the ground running, and create ROI fast. That is a different person from a good account manager, and we say which one a candidate is before you meet them.
We are a small firm and we intend to stay one. Good people, finding great salespeople, for companies worth the move.
Our network is deepest in building and home products, construction supply and distribution, and residential real estate.
Loom Haven is the search firm inside NovusMarc, our parent advisory practice. You can hire us for a search without ever speaking to NovusMarc.
The single hire. Chief revenue officer, VP of sales, national accounts director, commercial director, sales director, general manager, country manager, and the people who own a distributor, dealer or big-box relationship. Retained, or partly retained.
A whole desk, a new region, or a commission-only force built from nothing. Field sales, territory representatives and commission-only agents, hired against an agreed profile.
What we tell clients and candidates is true on the first pass. Fees, timelines, and feedback come with no surprises. Bad news travels as fast as good news, and it arrives with a plan.
The best person out there is almost never the best person that applied, so most of our searches are passive. We look for the people who open accounts that were not there before, hit the ground running, and create ROI fast.
We do not close the file when the offer is signed. We stay involved through the offer and the first ninety days, and if a placement leaves in that window we run the replacement search at no further fee.
Candidates are people, not inventory. Clients are partners, not transactions. That is why the people worth hiring, who are working and exceeding their number, take our calls.
Confidential mandates are a discipline, not a favor. Protected client identity and candidate privacy at every step. What we are trusted with stays trusted.
When we call, it's because we mapped the market and you're on a shortlist for a role worth leaving a good job for. We protect your confidentiality, tell you the truth about fit, and stay with you through the offer and the transition. If it's not right, we say so, and we remember you for the search where it is.
Whether you're hiring or exploring your next move, we'd like to hear from you.
