ТОП менеджер: содействие в трудоустройстве

What ТОП менеджер: содействие в трудоустройстве does

ТОП менеджер: содействие в трудоустройстве, operating commercially as Alexey Butenko | Job Hunting Partner via recryter.ru, is a Russian recruitment and HR-consulting micro-practice that has been continuously operating since 2011. The legal entity is a self-employed individual (Самозанятый) — Alexey Viktorovich Butenko — registered under Russia's professional income tax regime, with offices in Ufa and Moscow (Leninsky Prospekt, 125), and one named career manager (Nastasya Varlamova). The firm operates two integrated service lines from a single principal consultant: (1) Employer Services covering Executive Search, Management Selection, HR Business Partner support, Employer Reputation Audits, Mystery Applicant testing, HR Business Security, Special Business Projects, Key Employee Loyalty Verification, and Outplacement; and (2) Candidate Services covering full-cycle placement assistance for high-paid positions, the "Algorithm of Successful Employment" (Structured job-hunting methodology delivered via Zoom), Job Search Support (monthly retainer with personal career manager), and fixed-fee resume/LinkedIn services. Named employer clients include an international FMCG producer, a metallurgical holding, a furniture market leader, an international logistics company, a metalworking producer, a real-estate developer, and a construction/restoration materials firm — covering executive mandates such as Director of Investment Projects, VP of Strategy, Executive Director, CEO, IT Director, and Director of Sales Development.

The business model is purely services-based with no proprietary technology platform. Service delivery relies on conventional digital tooling: LinkedIn Recruiter, HH.ru, Google Docs for shared project tracking, Zoom/Skype for consultations, and messaging platforms (WhatsApp, Telegram, VK, TenChat, Viber). Revenue mechanics are split across three streams: (1) employer-side executive search and HR consulting fees (quote-based, not publicly disclosed); (2) candidate-side placement fees structured as a percentage of the successfully placed candidate's official salary, contingent on the placement being directly attributable to the consultant; and (3) fixed-fee candidate services — Attractive Resume at 4,700 RUB, LinkedIn Profile Audit at 700 RUB, and LinkedIn Setup & Administration at 12,000 RUB/month. The "Сопровождение в поиске" (Job Search Support) product is a hybrid with a monthly retainer plus success fee. The go-to-market is consultative and relationship-driven, leveraging Alexey Butenko's personal network, content marketing on recryter.ru and Yandex Zen, and organic social presence on LinkedIn, VK, Facebook, and YouTube. There is no external funding, no parent company, no corporate entity, and no solution to founder-key-person risk.
