Our Approach
Greylocke & Company’s staffing and search advisors are seasoned accounting, finance and operations professionals who thoroughly understand the pressures CFOs, controllers and compliance professionals face each day. The need for hiring competent and trustworthy employees has never been greater in response to the ever-changing business climate we see today.
Our recruiters work diligently to understand the culture, leadership, strategic goals and environment of our clients, in addition to confirming and validating the technical requirements at the front end of each search mandate. This information plays a critical role in directing our a permanent search, selecting an interim professional, or shaping a project staffing plan involving multiple professionals. We listen, we challenge the status quo, and we reach a clear understanding with each client before taking action.
When Greylocke & Company’s clients require a permanent addition to their team, we are ready to lead or assist the search effort from the early stage of developing and completing the position profile, to screening candidates and managing the process through to the final stage of negotiating an offer of employment.
Greylocke & Company also has the ability to respond quickly for both interim assignments as well as project-specific requirements and tap into our network of professionals with whom we connect on a regular basis. Temporary-to-hire engagements can be a favorable approach for both candidate and company in the right circumstances. We have seen many great careers begin this way.
The underpinning of any long-lasting business is competency, uncompromised ethics, and the upstanding personal character of the individuals who make up the organization. We firmly believe that “you are known by the company that you keep.” To that end, Greylocke & Company recruits and builds career-long relationships with the best and brightest candidates who are worthy of trust – both ours and yours.

“We have successfully worked with Greylocke & Co. for nearly eight years, and they have consistently addressed our hiring requirements for Contracts Management and Accounting professionals for both project work and permanent hires. I can always count on them to deliver quality staff within a short timeframe.”
“I have partnered with Greylocke & Co. for close to 7 years, engaging consultants in support of our SAP conversion; hiring a team to manage a multi-billion dollar grant initiative; and hiring a host of permanent financial professionals in an ever-growing department. I even worked with them to successfully identify my replacement after announcing my retirement.”
“Working with Greylocke & Co. to search for our first Chief Financial Officer was a wonderful experience. We knew exactly what we wanted in a CFO for our rapidly growing company, and the Greylocke team acted on our requirement in a way that is simply uncommon. They heard us clearly and delivered for us with perfection. Now, nearly 2 years later, we are thrilled with our CFO and the trusted relationship we have Greylocke.”
“Greylocke has been instrumental in filling 3 of our senior leader positions and a front-line manager position over the last 3 years with a very short turnaround time for each hire. Greylocke made it a point of thoroughly understanding the skill set and qualifications needed for each of these roles so that we were presented with quality candidates whose backgrounds were closely aligned with our need. The hiring process for all 3 positions was very efficient and painless. Greylocke is my “go-to” firm when we are seeking experienced, qualified candidates.”
“After years of searching for the perfect career growth opportunity on my own, but to no avail, working with Greylocke & Company was a true success. They not only identified and matched me into my current position, but also into a company that is just right for me as far as culture, opportunity, growth and sustainability.”
