Senior IT and leadership recruitment for mid-size companies — placed with precision, speed, and a written SLA you can hold us to. No CV dumps. No silence at offer stage.
Written SLA signed before sourcing begins. 96% adherence across all mandates.
Pre-screened for fit, motivation, and notice period. Not a CV dump of twenty.
We own the full cycle. Counter-offer handling. 30-day replacement guarantee.
Delayed deliveries. Overloaded teams. Missed quarters. The best candidate accepted an offer from someone who moved faster. Time-to-hire is a business metric — not just an HR one.
Job portal sourcing with no skill-match screening. Your hiring managers waste hours on profiles that were never going to work.
Slow process that costs you candidates and momentum simultaneously. The best senior professionals are off the market in 10–14 days.
Most agencies disappear precisely when counter-offers happen, notice periods wobble, and joining confirmations matter most.
Every week a Cloud Architect or Engineering Manager is missing, a delivery slips. The business cost is real and measurable — not abstract.
Your existing team absorbs the gap. Attrition risk rises. One open role quietly becomes two. The problem compounds.
Senior professionals make decisions fast. If your process takes six weeks, they accepted another offer in week two. Speed is a competitive requirement.
Committed in writing before sourcing begins. 96% adherence. We back our SLA because we know where the right candidates are before the search starts.
Pre-screened for technical fit, cultural alignment, motivation, and notice period. You interview fewer people and close faster.
Counter-offer handling, notice period management, weekly updates, and Day 1 joining confirmation. You never chase us for an update.
Not marketing claims. Commitments we put in writing and measure on every mandate.
We commit to a shortlist delivery date and sign it before we start. Speed comes from 18 years of knowing where the right candidates are — not from rushing.
Technical fit, cultural alignment, salary expectations, motivation to move, notice period — all confirmed before the profile reaches you. Every candidate is worth your time.
The right senior candidate for your role is almost certainly not applying anywhere. We reach them through 18 years of direct relationships — built mandate by mandate.
Candidate prep before every round. Feedback within 24 hours. Counter-offer handled. Joining confirmed. 30-day replacement guarantee in writing on every placement.
Every active client receives a weekly search update every Friday — pipeline status, profiles reviewed, candidates contacted. You never chase us for information.
18 years managing enterprise accounts for Fortune 500 companies, global banks, and leading technology brands. Our founder's active doctoral research in AI & workforce strategy means we understand not just who to hire — but why the right hire matters at each stage of your organisation's transformation.
The same SLA, the same process, the same accountability — whether you are hiring in Bengaluru, Sydney, Singapore, or Dubai.
One conversation. Tell us what you need. We come back with a search plan within 24 hours.
Scalex Consulting was founded in Bengaluru in 2026 — not as a startup figuring out how recruitment works, but as a firm built on nearly two decades of understanding exactly what great hiring looks like from the inside.
We place senior IT and non-IT leadership talent for mid-size companies across India, Australia, Singapore, and the Middle East — with a written SLA, a capped mandate model, and full-cycle accountability that most agencies have never offered.
Director & Founder — Scalex Consulting
After 18 years in enterprise staffing — managing recruitment and account relationships for Fortune 500 companies, global financial institutions, and leading technology brands — the answer to what mid-size companies actually need from a recruitment partner became clear.
Not a large agency where their mandate is one of hundreds. Not a junior recruiter learning on their time. A specialist who has sat in those rooms, managed those escalations, and built the networks that actually produce the right hire. Someone who treats every mandate with the rigour of a retained executive search — regardless of level.
Bhumika held senior roles at Adecco, Indeed, and leading staffing organisations, where she led large-scale staffing engagements, ran 60+ enterprise MSP accounts with full P&L ownership, and built the relationships and discipline that Scalex Consulting draws on for every search today.
Scalex was founded with one principle: cap the mandates, raise the standard, and deliver results the client can measure — in days, not weeks.
Bhumika is also a doctoral researcher in Strategic Management, studying how organisations navigate AI-driven workforce transitions — balancing employment continuity, revenue resilience, and employer brand integrity. This research gives Scalex Consulting a distinctive lens that goes beyond placement: an understanding of how the talent decisions companies make today shape their organisational capability for the next decade.
"The companies that hire right today are not just filling roles — they are building the organisational capability to survive an AI-driven decade. That is the intersection where Scalex Consulting operates."
— Bhumika Srivastava, Founder & DirectorBhumika is an active doctoral researcher in Strategic Management, studying how organisations navigate AI-driven workforce transitions — balancing employment continuity, revenue resilience, and employer brand integrity.
This research gives Scalex Consulting a perspective that most recruitment firms simply do not have: an understanding of not just who to hire, but what that hire means for your organisation's capability over the next three to five years.
For CHROs and CXOs navigating AI adoption, talent strategy, and workforce resilience — this means every conversation with Scalex goes beyond the mandate. It becomes a strategic dialogue.
How Indian and global organisations sustainably manage the shift to AI-augmented teams — without sacrificing employment continuity or employer brand.
A Cloud Architect hired today is your VP Engineering in four years. An AI/ML Engineer hired for a pilot becomes your platform lead when that pilot scales. We understand the trajectory — not just the immediate requirement.
"The companies that hire right today are not just filling roles — they are building the organisational capability to survive an AI-driven decade."
— Bhumika Srivastava, Founder & DirectorThe principles that govern every mandate we take on — and every candidate we represent.
A 7–10 day shortlist only has value if every profile in it is worth the client's time. We never sacrifice skill-match quality for turnaround speed. Both are non-negotiable.
No false promises. No inflated candidate counts. You know exactly where the search stands every week — because we send a written update every Friday, without being asked.
Every candidate gets a structured call, a prep session before every interview, and honest feedback after every round. We never ghost. Today's candidate is tomorrow's referral or client.
We cap active mandates deliberately. Every search gets senior, focused attention — not whatever capacity remains after managing twenty other clients simultaneously.
We turn down mandates we cannot do well. We prefer five excellent placements to twenty average ones. Our 94%+ client retention rate is the proof of that choice.
The same SLA, the same process, the same accountability — whether we are filling a role in Bengaluru, Sydney, Singapore, or Dubai. Geography does not change the standard.
Senior white collar and leadership hiring for mid-size companies — IT and non-IT, placed with a written SLA and full-cycle accountability.
Senior and leadership roles across IT and non-IT sectors — placed with the same rigour and accountability regardless of domain.

From signed mandate to Day 1 joining confirmation — we own every step so you do not have to manage the process alongside your own work.
30-minute mandate call. Role scope, team context, expectations, timeline, and what has failed before. Signed agreement before sourcing begins — no exceptions. We leave knowing the role better than most internal TA teams.
Passive network outreach, Boolean LinkedIn search, Naukri Resdex, and referral chains. We reach the senior candidate who is not applying anywhere. Target: 15–20 raw profiles per mandate.
Structured 30-minute call per candidate. Technical fit, motivation to move, salary expectation, notice period, and competing offers — all confirmed before a profile is submitted to you.
3–5 profiles with written commentary per candidate — why this person, key strengths, notice period, and any risk flags. Not just CVs. Every profile submitted is a recommendation, not a possibility.
We own scheduling, candidate prep before every round, and feedback collected within 24 hours of each interview. Friday search updates to every active client — without being asked.
Offer bridged on both sides. Counter-offer handled before it becomes a resignation. Weekly candidate check-ins through notice. Day 1 joining confirmed. 30-day free replacement guarantee in writing.
Deep familiarity with the roles, skill sets, and hiring dynamics of every sector we operate in — across IT and non-IT.
Give us the mandate that has been open 45 days — the one two agencies have already failed on. Let the shortlist speak for itself.
