Every search is powered by rouka, our proprietary intelligence platform covering 5,151 roles across 10 private market sectors with P25 to P90 compensation benchmarks, scarcity scores, and candidate pool data.

Sectors we cover: family office investment and operations, private household and estate staffing, executive protection, private aviation, yachting and superyacht crew, private banking, PE and VC, hospitality, and property operations.

Every engagement starts with a rouka intelligence brief delivered within 48 hours: complexity score, full compensation benchmarks, candidate pool assessment, and sourcing strategy. Before you commit to anything.
