The industry

Why the logistics and transportation sector calls for a specialized headhunter

Getting production from the farm to the port is one of the biggest challenges in Brazilian agribusiness. Trucking companies, railroads, waterways and terminals operate with harvest peaks, tight margins and heavy exposure to fuel costs, safety and regulation.

We map operations, fleet, terminal, sales and safety managers at transportation and logistics companies, considering the mode, the region and the type of cargo.

How it works

The recruitment and selection process, step by step

Full transparency at every step: you know exactly what happens from the first briefing to the hiring of the ideal candidate.

Client alignment

It all starts with a deep dive into your challenge: we understand the role, the business goals, the company culture and the ideal technical and behavioral profile. This initial alignment defines the search map and avoids rework down the road.

Market mapping

We map the agribusiness market in full: companies, competitors, regions and the professionals who stand out in each function. This is where we identify target talent, including people who are currently employed and satisfied.

Active search (headhunting)

We go after the best proactively. We combine direct headhunting, our own talent pool and AI-powered technology to approach qualified candidates no job posting would reach, with full confidentiality when the process requires it.

Behavioral screening (DISC)

We apply the DISC methodology to mapped candidates to understand how each person tends to act, communicate and make decisions. Only those whose profile fits the team and the challenge move on to interviews.

Interviews and assessment

We assess each candidate in technical and behavioral depth, validating experience, achievements, motivations and fit with your company culture. Only those who truly make sense for the position make the shortlist.

Shortlist delivery

You receive a lean shortlist with the best options in the market, each with a complete profile report. Instead of screening dozens of résumés, you choose among qualified finalists, with accuracy above 70%.
