The firm that knows revenue talent.
We place sales leaders who close enterprise deals for IT services and consulting firms — specialists who understand the buy cycle, the territory, and the hire.
Not a staffing agency. A specialist search firm.
Deep domain knowledge, not generalist recruiting.
We place leaders who drive growth, not just fill seats.
Most recruiters place IT talent. We place the people who sell it.
That distinction matters. Revenue leaders require a different search — different networks, different evaluation criteria, different conversations. Purple Stack was built for exactly this.
Who We Serve
Built for two sides of the same deal.
Specialized in your space
We don't place everyone. We place revenue leaders for IT services, tech consulting, and digital transformation firms — and we know exactly who moves the needle in that world.
Retained and contingent options
Whether you need a dedicated retained search for a strategic hire or a contingent placement for an urgent opening, we flex to your timeline and budget.
Confidential when it matters
Leadership transitions are sensitive. We conduct searches with full discretion — protecting your competitive positioning and the dignity of every candidate in the process.
Quality over volume
You won't get a stack of 40 resumes. You'll get 3–5 thoroughly vetted candidates who can do the job, fit the culture, and hit the ground running.
How We Work
A search process built on precision.
Deep Intake
We go beyond the job description. We map your growth goals, team dynamics, and the profile of rep who's historically won in your market.
Targeted Outreach
We reach people who aren't on the job boards — senior sales leaders with proven books of business in IT services and consulting.
Rigorous Vetting
Every candidate is screened for track record, deal size, sector fit, and cultural alignment before you spend a single hour interviewing.
Through Close
We manage the offer process, navigate counteroffers, and check in post-placement to make sure the hire sticks.
Our Focus
We specialize so you don't have to explain.
Six practice areas. All within the IT services and consulting ecosystem.
VPs and Directors of Sales with proven experience in managed services, outsourcing, and IT staffing.
Client Partners and Account Executives with vertical expertise across manufacturing, financial services, and retail.
Sales leaders fluent in Adobe Commerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, BigCommerce, and Shopify ecosystems.
Practice leaders who can sell and deliver data, analytics, and AI services to enterprise clients.
Hunters and farmers for cloud migration, managed cloud, and infrastructure-as-a-service offerings.
Oracle, SAP, and ERP practice heads with combined pre-sales, delivery, and alliance management experience.
Why Boutique Matters
Large generalist firms send you a stack of resumes. We send you the right person. The difference is specialization — and the willingness to say no to work that isn't in our lane.
About Purple Stack →What Our Clients Say
Purple Stack understood our business in a way no other recruiter ever had. They didn't just find us a VP of Sales — they found us the right one for an IT services firm at our stage.
We'd worked with three other firms before Purple Stack. The difference was night and day. Every candidate they sent was genuinely qualified and understood the IT services sales motion.

No commitment. Just a conversation.
