Testimonials

We are proud to partner with companies across industries to deliver
recruiting solutions that make a difference.

“Our experience with Quovis has been enjoyable and highly successful. Dan and Brian take the time to dig in and understand our company culture, as well as the key success factors for the roles we are looking to fill. Our organization is stronger today, thanks to great teammates brought to us by Quovis.”

Pete Murray

“Leveraging a strong relationship with our company, Quovis took time to really understand our needs, presenting us with strong slates of credible candidates. Through the process, the team was flexible, responsive and communicative, partnering with us closely, but also giving us space as needed, at the tail end. Despite ITW setting a very high bar, Quovis has been able to help us secure key talent. Would happily recommend.”


Chris Webb

“We have used Quovis in the past for multiple executive level searches and have been extremely pleased with the results. Both Brian and Dan have a good understanding of industry and they spent the time necessary to fully understand the requirements of our open positions. And beyond the technical requirements they understand the importance of cultural fit. Particularly like the approach they take to screen candidates and present to us their “slate of candidates”. Multiple check-ins kept us and them aligned throughout the search.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Quovis primarily focuses on organizations in the industrial manufacturing sector, including engineered products, industrial equipment, food production, consumer products, and other related businesses. Within those environments, we recruit across functions such as finance operations, engineering, supply chain, IT and software, sales, HR, and executive leadership. We also support select clients in technology-enabled industries, including SaaS, AI, and blockchain, that value the same hands-on, operations-minded leadership profile found in modern manufacturing. If you are unsure whether your industry fits our focus, we are happy to walk through recent, relevant searches to determine fit.

Retained Search is our exclusive, partnership-driven model ideal for executive and senior leadership roles. We charge an upfront retainer to dedicate specialized resources to deeply map the market, target passive high-performers who are not actively job-hunting, and manage the full process, including search strategy, shortlisting, negotiations, and onboarding support, to ensure the best cultural and strategic fit.

Contingent Search, by contrast, is a non-exclusive agreement. No payment is made until a successful hire occurs. Under this model, multiple firms, or even the internal team, may compete to submit active candidates quickly, often with less vetting or market depth. This model rewards speed over long-term fit and accuracy, so it is usually better suited for lower-level or urgent hiring needs.

At Quovis, we champion Retained Search, delivering a 95% success rate along with ongoing market insight and talent intelligence. Under our model, we stay dedicated to the client until we find the right fit. That leads to precision hires that drive long-term results, not just quick fills.

For most leadership and critical professional roles, our searches typically run about 8–12 weeks from kickoff meeting to accepted offer, depending on role complexity, market conditions, and your team’s availability for interviews and decisions. In the first 2–3 weeks, we focus on discovery, defining the role, and mapping the market. The following 3–5 weeks are spent actively approaching, evaluating, and presenting a shortlist of qualified candidates. Final interviews, references, and offer negotiation usually add another 2–4 weeks, especially for executive or hard-to-fill positions. Some searches move faster and others take longer, but we align on an expected timeline at the outset and provide clear weekly progress updates throughout the process.

Yes. We support organizations across the U.S. and internationally, including Canada, Europe, and Asia.

RPO provides organizations with embedded recruiting expertise to manage part or all of the hiring process.

RPO involves outsourcing recruiting, screening, interviewing, and even onboarding to Quovis, freeing your HR team to stay focused on higher-level strategic work while we manage volume hiring or specialized recruiting needs. Models can range from end-to-end recruitment ownership to project-based support or flexible on-demand help.

Leveraging RPO can deliver faster time-to-fill, lower cost-per-hire, and access to broader talent pools through advanced technology and recruiting networks. Your team also benefits from compliance support, data-driven insight, stronger employer branding, and reduced turnover through better-vetted, culture-fit candidates.

Our principals bring deep experience as both external search consultants and internal corporate HR leaders, with a strong track record supporting clients in the U.S. and internationally, combining rigorous search methodology with a high‑integrity, partnership‑based approach that emphasizes understanding your culture, operations, and business goals before launching any search.

Quovis specializes in leadership and professional roles from Manager through C‑suite across key functions such as Operations, Finance, Engineering, Information Technology, Sales & Marketing, Human Resources, Supply Chain, Purchasing, and Quality.

We take time up front to clarify requirements and success factors, then develop a tailored search strategy, proactively identify and assess targeted candidates, manage interviews and feedback, and support offer, acceptance, and onboarding to ensure a smooth, successful hire.

Before sourcing, we invest in understanding your organization’s culture, leadership style, and performance expectations, then evaluate candidates not only on skills and experience but also on alignment with your environment, values, and long‑term objectives.

Quovis is headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and we place a strong emphasis on supporting companies across Wisconsin and Illinois, where we have deep relationships with manufacturers, industrial firms, and digital companies. In addition to this core Midwest footprint, we regularly partner with clients across the United States, from coast to coast, and have extensive international experience, having successfully completed assignments and provided recruitment support for organizations with operations, facilities, and leadership teams in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Whether you are hiring for a local leadership role in Wisconsin or Illinois, a national function, or a multi‑country executive search, we are equipped to manage searches that span multiple time zones and regulatory environments while maintaining a consistent, high‑integrity, partnership‑based approach.

We offer manageable, high‑value pricing for retained executive and professional search and customize Recruitment Process Outsourcing and consulting solutions so clients can control costs while still gaining access to top‑tier talent and proven recruiting expertise.
