KOV Career Agency
WHY KOV
Most career services work with professionals. Most search firms work with companies. KOV operates both practices.
For senior professionals, KOV provides private career representation and reverse recruiting. For companies, KOV provides independent global talent sourcing and passive executive research.
The two practices are distinct. The operating philosophy is the same:
Research deeply. Communicate directly. Execute carefully. Protect discretion.
FOR PROFESSIONALS
KOV's candidate-side practice exists for senior professionals who want a managed, deliberate search instead of spending every week searching job boards, rewriting applications, networking manually, and coordinating follow-ups.
KOV handles the execution. You make the career decision.

KOV's company-side practice identifies and approaches senior talent for organizations that need more than inbound applications. The focus is passive talent, research, target-company mapping, and discreet outreach.

WHAT CONNECTS BOTH SIDES
Although the engagements are different, both sides depend on the same basic discipline:
FOUNDER-LED EXECUTION
KOV is intentionally boutique and built around direct involvement from Daniel Ade.
This supports a more personal search experience for both clients and professionals.
OPEN FEES
For candidate representation, our fees are flexible and agreed individually based on your requirements and the scope of work. The fee, deliverables and expectations are agreed in writing before work begins. KOV does not charge a percentage of your salary.
For companies, each talent sourcing engagement is priced according to the role, research requirements, geography, timeline and agreed deliverables. The fee and scope are agreed in writing before work begins.
See PricingNOT A JOB BOARD
A job board tells you what has already been posted. A search strategy asks what is not being seen.
KOV's work is built around targeted research, direct communication, relevant positioning, and disciplined follow-through. That applies whether KOV is representing a professional or sourcing an executive.
