OUR STORY
44 Years. 150,000 Placements. One Standard.
The Spearhead Group, Inc. was founded in 1982 with a belief that has never changed — the right person in the right role changes everything.
Since then we have completed over 150,000 successful placements for companies across higher education, government, energy, healthcare, and corporate sectors. We have grown from a Houston-based firm into a national executive search, staff augmentation, and recruiting operation — placing professional, technical, and administrative talent at every level, from entry-level contract workers to C-suite executives.
Four decades in, our standard has not changed. Right Time. Right Person. Right Company. Every time.
Our Process
How We Find the Right Fit — Every Time.
Most staffing firms send you resumes. We send you the right person. Here is how our process works.
We Learn Your Business
Before we source a single candidate, we take the time to understand your company, your culture, your team, and exactly what success looks like in the role. A great hire is about more than a matching resume.
We Source Beyond the Job Boards
Our recruiters tap into a deep, diverse network built over 44 years. We find candidates who are not actively looking — the ones your competitors cannot reach.
We Screen Thoroughly
Every candidate goes through background checks, reference verification, drug testing, and skills assessment. You only meet people who are genuinely ready for the role.
We Stay Accountable
Our 24-hour free replacement guarantee means if a placement does not work out, we make it right — at no additional cost. We stand behind every hire we make.
FOR EMPLOYERS
The Staffing Partner That Delivers.
Ready to hire? Submit a job order and we will respond within 24 hours.
24-Hour Free Replacement Guarantee
If a placement doesn't work out within the guarantee period, we replace them immediately at no cost. Zero risk to you.
Senior Leadership on Every Search
You work directly with our senior team — not a junior recruiter. Every search gets the attention it deserves.
Fast, Scalable Staffing
Whether you need one person or fifty, we mobilize quickly. One hire or a full team — we scale to match your pace.
Proven Across Multiple Industries
We have placed talent in higher education, government, energy, healthcare, finance, and corporate environments for over four decades.
Diversity-Forward Recruiting
As a certified MBE and WBE firm, we bring a genuine commitment to diverse hiring into every search — not as a checkbox, but as a competitive advantage.
When Companies Need the Right Person — They Call Us.
For over 44 years, The Spearhead Group has placed exceptional talent with leading organizations across the nation. We work for companies that need to hire — and for professionals ready for their next opportunity.
