Business Owner to Director: An Unexpected Opportunity, Thoughtfully Negotiated

 “I wasn’t seeking a new position when an unexpected Director‑level opportunity at another organization came my way. After 10 years of running my own practice, I knew I would only consider transitioning if the opportunity clearly exceeded what I already had.

Evie helped me assess the role, review the business agreement, negotiate my full compensation and benefits package, clarify the job requirements for a role that hadn’t existed before, and secure the working hours I needed, including both on‑site and remote flexibility. Her strategic support as a seasoned recruiter made a major transition I wasn’t even looking for, to feel grounded, achievable, and the right next step for me.”  - L. Anne
