How to use
Open the template for the role being issued. Replace every [Square Bracket] placeholder with the individual's details (name, desk, vertical, dates, numbers). Keep or remove the OPTIONAL sections based on what applies (Desk Lead overlay, Backup Sourcer, DLiT, etc. — each is clearly marked with both an HTML comment and a visible amber banner). Attach the compensation framework as Section 09 before signing. Templates are signed annually.
Consultant Track
APB's client-facing, full-cycle (360) recruiters. Three tiers — Executive Consultant → Senior Consultant → Principal Consultant — with optional Desk Lead overlays. Owns the client and the Job Order; hands the candidate side off to an allocated Talent Partner.
4-floor model · EC/SC stretch = Goal + 1 · PC stretch = Goal + 2
Talent Partner Track
Candidate-only delivery — Source · Screen · Set. Three tiers — Talent Partner → Senior Talent Partner → Team Leader. Allocated to a consultant's Job Order; hands the candidate back after the first interview. Consolidates the former EC (PH) and Senior Specialist roles into one legible track.
3-floor model · Activity · Quality · 24-hour SLA · 0.5% desk-cash-above-budget share
Managing Director
The firm's leadership seat — above both tracks, not a tier on either. Three Pillars (Full P&L Ownership · Staffing & Team Building · Process Development & Execution). Optional overlays for Director, Operations, Accounts, and interim Desk Lead. Firm-level KPIs only — no personal placement target, no PM section.
