Walden represents experienced professionals through trusted relationships, not public job postings.

The network is private. Representation is selective. If the timing is right, submit your background to join the network.

๐Ÿ”’

Private Network

No public job board. Your background is never shared without your permission.

โœฆ

No Candidate Fees

Representation, introductions, and advice are always free for professionals.

โ—Ž

Reviewed Personally

Every submission is reviewed by Terrance Walden โ€” not screened by an algorithm.

[ TERRANCE โ€” Is "reviewed personally" accurate? As submissions grow, will you still review every one yourself? Let us know if we should soften this language. ]
โ†’

Selective Outreach

You will only hear from us when an opportunity genuinely fits your background.

Four steps from introduction to representation.

1

Join the Network

Submit your background. Terrance reviews every submission personally against active searches and future opportunities.

2

Relationship Review

If there is meaningful overlap, Terrance reaches out directly to understand your background, goals, and timing.

3

Search Opens

When a relevant search opens โ€” now or in the future โ€” your profile is considered before any outreach begins.

4

Direct Outreach

If the fit is right, Terrance contacts you directly. No surprises. No profile shared without an explicit conversation first.

Representation is a relationship, not a transaction.

Walden does not post jobs. There is no public job board, no application portal, and no automated matching system. Representation means that Terrance Walden actively considers your background when relevant opportunities emerge โ€” and reaches out directly when the fit is right.

The network is built on discretion. Profiles are not shared without explicit conversation. Every opportunity discussed is one that fits your background, your interests, and your timing. You will not receive a flood of irrelevant outreach.

There is no fee to candidates. Walden is paid by the hiring company when a placement is made. Candidates are never charged for representation, introductions, or advice.

What representation includes

Active consideration when relevant searches open in your function and seniority level

Direct, private introductions โ€” your background is never shared without your knowledge

Honest guidance on opportunities and market conditions for your profile

No obligation to pursue any opportunity presented

Submit your background

LinkedIn is the fastest way for us to understand your background.

A direct link to your resume or executive bio. Leave blank if LinkedIn is sufficient.

Optional. The more context, the more useful we can be.

Submissions are reviewed personally. If there is a meaningful overlap with our active searches or network, we will be in touch. If the timing is not right, your background stays on file.

Senior professionals in the areas where the firm has earned the right to recruit.

[ TERRANCE โ€” The role list below (CIO, CTO, CFO, Controller, etc.) should only include what you actually recruit for. Please confirm these are right and remove any that are outside your scope. ]

Walden represents professionals at the director level and above in technology and AI, finance and accounting, and healthcare and life sciences. The network is not built for every function or every level. It is built for the areas where the firm's relationships run deepest.

The most valuable part of the network is not the people who are actively looking. It is the people who are not โ€” professionals who are well-employed and not responding to generic outreach, but who trust this firm enough to take a call when it comes.

Technology & AI

CIO, CTO, CISO, VP Engineering, Head of AI, Director of Architecture and above

Finance & Accounting

CFO, Controller, VP Finance, Director of FP&A, senior accounting leadership

Healthcare & Life Sciences

C-suite and VP leadership in clinical operations, healthcare IT, life sciences, and medical affairs

Your background is never shared without your knowledge.

Every introduction is preceded by a conversation. Walden does not submit profiles speculatively or share backgrounds without explicit permission. If an opportunity is not the right fit, you say so and we do not pursue it. Representation here is a relationship, not an automated process.
