BUILDING SOMETHING GREAT
WITH PEOPLE I LOVE

We started Pursuit with a mission to serve and enrich our people & partners and are proud to have continued to hold firmly to that mission over the past 8 years. It’s a privilege to serve and watch people grow overall; whether that’s our internal staff, candidates, or clients. Pursuit exists so that our clients can focus on what they do best while we focus on finding the correct ‘WHO’ for their team. We believe building the right sales or marketing team is essential to any company and we are confident in our strategy to do just that. I’m so grateful to get to come into the office each day and build our dream with people I love.

core values

United in the Foxhole

Everyone plays a part in Pursuit seeing success. With that, everyone is linking arms so that not only can their opportunity grow, but so can their teammate's opportunity. Whether it’s inside or outside of work, we battle together when tough times arise. It’s having the mentality of supporting people when they need support, encouraging people when they need encouragement, and fighting alongside your teammate.

Others First

We believe servant leadership is someone who takes initiative for the benefit of others - we work hard to implement this within our culture. Our philosophy at Pursuit is to consciously strive to put the needs of people above our own. This ensures that our clients and candidates are getting the best level of service we can possibly provide.

3 C’s (Competitive, Confident, Coachable)

Competitive - Who doesn’t love a little healthy competition?

Confident -  we don’t play scared; we know that mistakes are inevitable, but we strive to be confident in our decisions and actions.

Coachable - We believe if you’re not willing, you’re not growing. A part of that is throwing out pride and allowing room for constructive feedback.

Relentless Pursuit of Excellence

There’s good, there’s great, and there’s excellent. We don’t believe excellence can be fully achieved but we hold our people to pursue that excellence. We’re constantly evaluating and equipping ourselves to be better performers in our craft.

Do the right thing

Simple as that. Operate with the utmost honesty & integrity.

Just own it

We believe there’s freedom in taking ownership of your role. An integral piece of this is having a ‘figure it out’ mentality.

"Our people are our greatest resource here at Pursuit and we strive to develop our team both professionally and personally! It has been one of the great joys of my life to be in a role where I get the chance to train, develop, and work alongside a group of individuals of this caliber who love to compete, and WIN!"

Morgan Burks

Sales Trainer

"Pursuit is my first job out of college and my opportunity for development is unmatched. I went from being burdened by student debt to debt-free and surrounded by mentors I respect at a fundamental level! When I walk into our office I am greeted by electricity and find my cup filled to the brim personally and professionally."
