Pitch N Hire's executive search helps Izmir, Turkey companies hire senior engineering and leadership roles — heads of engineering, architects, and functional leaders — through a discreet, research-led process. PNH maps the market, approaches passive candidates and runs structured assessment, so a Izmir business fills business-critical leadership roles with rigour rather than relying on inbound applications.
Executive search is a targeted, research-led method for hiring senior and hard-to-fill leadership roles, where the best candidates are usually employed and not actively applying. Instead of posting a job and waiting, Pitch N Hire maps the relevant talent market, discreetly approaches qualified passive candidates, and runs structured, evidence-based assessment against the role's real requirements. This is used for engineering leadership, architecture, and specialist senior roles where a wrong hire is expensive and confidentiality matters. PNH's search process pairs experienced recruiters with structured interview tooling to keep the assessment consistent and defensible, whether the role is based locally or leads an offshore team.
We work with you to define the mandate — responsibilities, the outcomes the leader must deliver, and the competencies and experience that predict success in your context.
PNH researches and maps the relevant talent market, building a longlist of qualified people in comparable roles at comparable organisations — including those not actively looking.
Candidates are approached confidentially and professionally, protecting your employer brand and the candidates' current positions while gauging genuine interest and fit.
Interested candidates go through structured, evidence-based interviews and scorecards against the success profile, so the shortlist is comparable and defensible, not gut-feel.
You interview a small, high-quality shortlist; we support referencing, offer negotiation and a careful close, given how much a senior hire matters.
Research-led search suits senior and business-critical roles where a mis-hire is costly:
Izmir is Turkey's third-largest city and a major Aegean trade and manufacturing centre whose technology sector is expanding steadily, helped by a lower cost of living than Istanbul and a growing remote-work culture. Its economy blends port logistics, agriculture and industry with a rising software and startup community, creating demand for web, e-commerce and integration engineers alongside industrial and logistics technology roles.
Izmir's talent pool is smaller than Istanbul's but growing, with strengths in web and e-commerce development, integration and a rising base of remote engineers who work for firms elsewhere while living on the coast. Graduates come from Ege University, Dokuz Eylül and the Izmir Institute of Technology, and lower living costs help retention, though senior specialist depth remains more limited locally.
Izmir developer pay typically runs below Istanbul, reflecting lower living costs — senior engineers often roughly 65,000–120,000 TRY per month, with high inflation increasingly nudging senior packages toward USD reference. Teams needing to widen a smaller local pool or add specialist skills quickly frequently combine Izmir hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced through PNH.
For Izmir scale-ups and trade- or logistics-tech teams, PNH offers offshore engineering capacity: vetted India-based developers employed through an Employer of Record on near-full TRT overlap, so a coastal team can grow delivery and add specialist skills without relying solely on a comparatively small local talent pool.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Izmir team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
