Career intelligence that moves you forward,
and brings opportunities to you.
Most senior openings are filled before they're ever public. Waypoint runs both sides for you: opening doors with named decision-makers and live hiring signals, while your brand pulls the right recruiters in. Built around you, delivered in days.
The next wave of senior hires is being discussed right now — in boardrooms, private DMs, and "quiet" searches. The people who move this week get the conversation. Waiting costs you the seat.
The moments that brought you here.
If you've sat with any of these, you don't need a better CV. You need access. That's what comes next.
You apply for the right role within an hour. By the end of the day there are 800+ other applicants. You know your CV will not get read.
Most large companies use software to scan CVs before a human sees them. If your wording does not match the keywords, you are rejected automatically, even if you are qualified.
You apply for a role and never hear back. No rejection email, no feedback, no signal that anyone read your CV. Weeks later you see someone else got the job.
Recruiters check LinkedIn before they read CVs. If your profile is thin, they scroll past you. Less qualified people get the calls because they look more visible online.
Your company announces layoffs and you may be one of them. You cannot post on LinkedIn or tell colleagues, but you need to start a serious job search this week, quietly, with no warning.
You moved to a new country and your network stayed behind. You do not know which companies are hiring at your level, who the good recruiters are, or where senior roles get filled.
Months go by and no recruiter has reached out. Your inbox is full of automated rejections. You start to wonder if better roles are getting filled before you ever see them.
Most senior roles never reach a job board. They get filled through search firms and referrals. If the right recruiters do not know who you are, you do not get considered.
You have wanted to move roles for months but the search feels overwhelming. You open LinkedIn, scroll for ten minutes, and close it. Nothing has moved in six months.
Each one is the same problem wearing a different face: senior careers move on access, and you don't have it.
Career intelligence is what changes that.
The hiring market you can see is only the tip.
Public roles are the surface. Every senior hire starts with a signal weeks or months before a job spec exists: a resignation, a failed probation, a counter-offer that unwound the plan, a funding round, a merger. Waypoint reads those signals and shows you where your next role is forming, so you arrive before the shortlist is drawn.
9 signals that decide your next role.
Two sit on the surface. Seven are decided in private. All of them shape the shortlist long before a job spec is written.
Roles anyone with a browser can find. Already seen by hundreds by the time you apply.
The noisy part. Mass outreach, scraped contact lists, and roles already half-filled.
The hunt starts inside the company before the seat is even empty.
The role is still open. And now it's urgent.
The seat reopens quietly. Same recruiter, same brief, no public post.
The company restarts the search quietly, in a hurry, and off the boards.
Leadership teams get rebuilt within 90 days. The hiring brief is already written.
Senior hires happen before anything public goes up. Access is won or lost here.
Dozens of new seats exist before any job spec is written. The inside track closes fast.
Three things hidden from job boards.
All three, in your hands.
The right information, delivered at the right moment, to reach the right person. Built around your brief in 5 days or less.

who are done guessing.
Waypoint adapts to who you are and where you're going. Here's how different people use it.
Senior Executives
Your Waypoints surface who's moving, who's hiring, and where opportunities are forming — before they go public. Stay ahead of your market without spending hours on LinkedIn.
Competitive Job Seekers
Tired of applying into a black hole? You're going after roles where everyone looks the same on paper. Waypoint gives you the edge — the right person, the right timing, the right approach.
Relocators
Moving to a new country or city with zero network? Your Waypoints cover the companies, decision-makers, and hiring signals in your target market — so you land with a plan, not a prayer.
Career Changers
You've got transferable skills but no idea which companies actually value them. Your Waypoints identify the organisations where your background is an asset, not a question mark.
Returning Professionals
Took time out for family, study, or life? The market moved — but so did you. Your Waypoints show exactly where your experience fits right now, with contacts who'll take the meeting.
Chart your own Waypoints.
Every brief is built around your exact situation, target market, and the companies you want inside. One human strategist, your proprietary research stack, 5 days or less.

You Share Your Brief
Share your background, your target market, and where you want to go. The more detail, the sharper the Waypoints — but even a short brief is enough to start.
Your Waypoints Are Built
A strategist researches your market, hand-selects companies across three tiers, identifies the right decision-makers, sources their direct contacts, and builds your personalised intelligence report — all inside a proprietary stack we built in‑house. Delivered in 5 days or less.
You Start Conversations
Your dashboard goes live — companies, contacts, signals, and a tailored strategy for approaching each one. You know exactly who to talk to and why.
This is what the signals look like.
Your Waypoints aren't a static document. They're live access to what's moving in your market — the events that create the opening before the role is ever public.

All prices in USD. Only a small number of briefs are taken each week to protect research quality — once the slots are full, new briefs roll to the following week.
Every day you wait, a shortlist closes without you.
The roles you actually want are being decided in conversations you're not in. Private calls, warm intros, an internal shortlist tightening by the week. By the time one of those seats becomes a job posting, the decision is effectively made — and you're applying into a slot that's already spoken for.
Every week you wait is an opportunity that goes to someone who moved earlier. Waypoint puts you in front of the decision-makers before the role is ever public. The window is open this week. Next week it belongs to someone else.
Build My Waypoints — Move FirstQuestions you're probably asking.
Waypoint is a bespoke career intelligence service. You share your background, seniority level, target sectors, and ambitions — and a strategist personally builds you a completely custom set of market access points. That includes hand-selected companies, named decision-maker contacts, hiring signals, and a tailored strategy for approaching each one. Think of it as commissioning a private intelligence operation around your career, instead of scrolling LinkedIn hoping something shows up.
No one can honestly promise you a job. What Waypoint promises is access — and at senior level, access is the entire game.
The professionals who land the right roles aren't the ones with the best CVs. They're the ones with the best information: which companies are hiring, who decides, and when to approach. Most candidates search blind, applying into shortlists that closed weeks ago. Waypoint hands you the map a senior recruiter would build for a paying client — target companies, named decision-makers, live hiring signals — except it's built around you, in days, not months.
You still have to walk in. We just make sure you know where the door is, who's behind it, and when to knock.
Recruiters are brilliant when they have a specific mandate that fits you — a good recruiter moves fast and gets you in the room. The limitation isn't effort, it's scope: they can only introduce you to the roles they've been briefed on. Waypoint is the other half of the equation. Instead of one mandate, you get full access to your target market — every relevant company, named decision-makers, live hiring signals — so you can see the roles that aren't with an agency yet, and approach them directly. Use both, and you've covered the public and the private sides of the market.
Every brief is built around you. If you're in a niche sector, the approach adjusts — fewer companies but deeper research, more signals, more contacts per company. Your Waypoints fit your market, not the other way around. Some of the strongest briefs have been for ultra-specialist roles where only 15 companies in a region are relevant.
It depends on your tier. Discovery briefs land in 48 hours. Starter, Plus, and Pro briefs are delivered in 5 days or less from the point your brief is confirmed. Each one is personally researched and quality-checked by a human strategist, powered by a proprietary intelligence stack we built in-house so nothing gets missed. You'll get access to your live dashboard as sections are completed, so you can start reviewing before the full brief is delivered.
It depends on whether you want a taster or a full brief, how much research you need, and whether the personal-brand layer matters.
Discovery ($199) is for testing the waters — 5 named companies in 48 hours. A taster, not a full brief.
Starter ($739) is the foundation: 25 companies tiered and scored, full intelligence report, outreach strategy, dashboard. Delivered in 5 days.
Plus ($1,099) adds our proprietary Jobs Intelligence Engine with 30 days of live access on top of 45 companies. Right pick if you want live job signals as well as the map.
Pro ($1,799) is the full unlock: 65 companies, live job openings, complete CV redesign, LinkedIn overhaul, content engine, and 3 months Waypoint Live included. Right pick if you also want the personal-brand layer rebuilt.
Most senior professionals start with Starter or Plus. Discovery is the right pick if you want a low-commitment proof point first.
Discovery is the taster: $199, 5 named companies, delivered in 48 hours. You get verified decision-maker contacts, an intelligence report on each company, and a one-page strategy summary. Hand-curated by a human strategist, but intentionally scoped narrow — enough to show you the quality of the research, not the full market map.
Starter is the foundation brief: $739, 25 companies tiered and scored, full contact discovery, hiring signal intelligence, a complete intelligence report, personalised outreach guide, and your interactive dashboard. Delivered in 5 days.
Most people use Discovery to see if the research lands for their specific market before committing to Starter. If you upgrade within the dashboard, your $199 is credited toward the next tier — so trying Discovery costs nothing extra if you decide to go bigger.
Yes. Every contact is cross-referenced against multiple sources to confirm the person is in-seat and the contact details resolve. Each contact on your dashboard is flagged as direct or researched, so you always know what you're working with. No guesswork, no scraped data, no generic inboxes.
Live keeps your Waypoints current after delivery. New signals, new contacts, and new job openings — refreshed constantly so you're never working from stale data. You also get the prediction engine, integrated email outreach, and weekly job lead prioritisation.
Pro tier includes 3 months of Live free, then $70/month after if you want to keep it. For Discovery, Starter, and Plus, Live is an add-on at $70/month, available inside the dashboard once your brief is delivered. Cancel anytime. If your search wraps up quickly, you may not need it. If you're playing a longer game, it keeps your intelligence fresh.
Your Waypoints get revised until you're satisfied. If a company doesn't fit, it gets replaced. If a section needs reworking — different seniority level, different sector angle, different geography — it gets rebuilt. Your brief is the benchmark, and the work isn't considered complete until it matches what you asked for. Revisions are part of the service, not an add-on.
Completely. Your personal data is automatically deleted once your brief is built — it's not stored or accessible to anyone. Your information is never shared with employers, recruiters, or third parties. Billing is handled securely through Stripe, so payment details are never seen or stored on our side. If discretion matters — and at senior level, it usually does — you're in safe hands.
Career intelligence is the practice of gathering strategic information about your job market — which companies are hiring, who the decision-makers are, what signals indicate upcoming opportunities, and how to position yourself to reach them. It's the difference between applying blind and approaching with precision. Waypoint pioneered career intelligence as a service, delivering bespoke market access that gives senior professionals the same data-driven advantage recruitment firms have always kept to themselves.
Most tools available to executives — LinkedIn Premium, job boards, networking events — are passive. They show you what's publicly listed and hope you find something relevant. Waypoint takes the opposite approach: a strategist actively researches your specific market, identifies companies that match your background, verifies the contacts who make hiring decisions, and surfaces the signals that suggest they're about to hire. It's bespoke intelligence, not a software subscription. Waypoint serves senior professionals globally — wherever your target market is, your Waypoints are built around it.
Finding decision-makers requires going beyond LinkedIn searches. You need named contacts, confirmed job titles, and context about each person's hiring authority. Waypoint's briefs include named decision-maker contacts for every target company — cross-referenced across multiple data sources and presented with role context so you know exactly who to approach and how. Each contact is flagged as direct or researched so you can prioritise your outreach.
Waypoint is international. Your Waypoints are built around whatever market you're targeting — whether that's New York, London, Singapore, Dubai, Sydney, or anywhere else. Built by a team with over a decade of executive recruitment experience across the UK, Americas, Gulf, APAC, and beyond, each brief adapts to how hiring works in your target region — local decision-maker networks, regional hiring cycles, and market-specific intelligence that generic global platforms miss.
Yes. Waypoint works across every industry and every major market, because every brief is built from scratch — not pulled from a database. Whether you're a Technology VP entering the UK, a Finance Director targeting New York, a Healthcare CFO moving into Singapore, an Automotive CEO targeting the Gulf, or a Hospitality executive targeting Southeast Asia — the research starts fresh, every time, built entirely around your background, your sector, and your geography. The companies identified are specific to your industry. The contacts surfaced are the people who actually make hiring decisions in your space. The signals tracked are what's moving in your target market right now. If the companies you want to reach exist and the people making hiring decisions have verifiable contact details, Waypoint works. Industry, seniority level, and geography have never been a limitation.
LinkedIn Premium and job boards show you what's already public — listed roles that thousands of other candidates can see. Waypoint gives you what isn't public: companies that match your profile but haven't posted a role yet, named direct contacts for the decision-makers, real-time signals that indicate they're about to hire, and a personalised outreach strategy. It's the hidden job market, charted and handed to you. Job boards are reactive — you wait for listings. Waypoint is proactive — you approach the right people before a role is ever posted.
Career market access is a structured set of the companies, contacts, and opportunities relevant to your specific professional profile. Unlike generic job searches, your Waypoints are built around you — your seniority level, sector expertise, geographic targets, and career ambitions. Every Waypoint brief includes target companies scored by relevance, named decision-maker contacts with direct details, real-time hiring signals, and a strategy guide for approaching each company. It's the tool that executive search firms build internally — now available directly to professionals.
No — Waypoint is the exact opposite. Mass-apply tools flood job boards with the same CV, hundreds of times, competing against thousands of others doing the same thing. That's the problem, not the solution. Waypoint doesn't apply to anything on your behalf. A strategist researches your specific market, identifies companies worth your time, finds the actual decision-makers, confirms their direct contact details, and builds you a personalised outreach strategy. You send every message yourself, from your own inbox, to people you've chosen to approach. It's precision, not volume.
AI chatbots can suggest company names — but they can't confirm whether those companies are actually hiring, whether the contact details they generate are real, or whether the person they name is still in that role. They have no access to real-time hiring signals, no way to cross-reference sources, and no understanding of how hiring works in your specific market. Waypoint's value isn't generating names. It's the human research, the live signals, the verified access to the right decision-maker, the judgement about which companies are genuinely worth your time, and the strategy for approaching each one. AI is a brainstorming tool. Waypoint is an intelligence operation.
Completely. All messages are sent from your own inbox — there's no mention of Waypoint anywhere in your outreach. The messaging strategy is professional and conversational, designed to read like informed networking. Many Waypoint users are employed senior professionals who need absolute discretion. Your personal data is also deleted after your brief is built — it's not stored, shared with employers, or accessible to anyone. If discretion matters — and at senior level it usually does — the entire service is built with that in mind.
Because you get the full deliverable up front — not drip-fed content or gated features. Your career intelligence brief, named contacts, hiring signals, and outreach strategy are all delivered in days (not weeks) and yours to keep permanently. There's no login to lose access to, no monthly renewal, and no expiry date. Every brief is built from scratch by a strategist who researches your target market, curates the companies, confirms decision-maker contacts, and assembles a strategy specific to your goals. That's weeks of specialist work compressed into days. For context, LinkedIn Premium costs over $700 a year and you still do every minute of research yourself. Career coaches charge $3,000–$10,000+ with no concrete deliverable. Recruiters only know about the specific mandates they've been briefed on. Waypoint is the only service where you walk away with a complete, actionable asset from day one — at a fraction of what most professionals spend on tools that deliver far less.
Six months. Thousands spent.
No calendar invite.
Before Waypoint, senior professionals almost always try this first. Here's what the standard playbook costs, month by month, bill by bill, and what it still doesn't give you at the end.
Weekly Zoom calls. Accountability check-ins. A sharper story about your strengths. Zero named companies, zero direct contacts, zero warm introductions. Three months in you are a more self-aware version of yourself. Still not a hired one.
Templates. Group webinars. A login to a “premium job portal” stuffed with roles already public elsewhere. Nobody on the package has picked up the phone and asked who is quietly hiring at your target company this quarter.
Twelve months of InMails that sit unread. Filters that surface the exact same list every other applicant is working from. Still no answer to the only question that matters: who do I reach out to, right now, and why would they reply?
A beautifully typeset CV going into the same ATS black hole. Same companies. Same silence. The polish is real. The problem is upstream — you still have no way to reach the person who actually decides.
Time. Lost earnings. Roles that closed while you were prepping.
Named decision‑makers reached: zero. Calendar invites from the people who actually hire: zero. A sharper CV and a tidier narrative, sold back to you by people who never picked up the phone.
Turn your next move into a plan — not a gamble.
