The hidden 70%
Industry research consistently shows 65–75% of executive positions are filled through internal promotion, networks, or retained search — never reaching a job board. By the time a JD is public, the brief is six weeks old and three agencies are already shortlisting.
HushHiring watches the signals that precede a posting: the £40M Series B that closed yesterday, the new CTO who started on Monday, the local-authority contract awarded last Friday. Every one of those is a backfill team waiting to be filled.

How it works
Every step is automated except the one that matters most — the call you make first.
A curated set of UK national, regional and sector-trade business sources, scanned every six hours. Funding rounds, leadership appointments, contract wins, expansions and launches — across every sector, classified automatically.
Every signal gets a 0–100 intent score from what happened (a Series B outranks a seed round), how big it is (contract value, round size, open senior roles), how fresh it is and whether the job is advertised yet. Each card shows the breakdown.
You tell us what you recruit — technology, construction, exec search — and the desk and the 7am briefing carry that lane across the whole UK.
Each signal maps its trigger to the senior roles it typically opens — the Head of Engineering a Series A needs, the VP Sales a Series B opens — so you know the brief before the JD exists.
The signal is your opener: reach out referencing the funding, the appointment, the contract win days after it's public — weeks before the role is posted and every other recruiter arrives.
Your 7am email
No dashboard to keep open, no tab to refresh. A scored briefing lands in your inbox every morning — this is what one looks like, built from today's live signals.
Top movements from the overnight scan, ranked by hiring intent. Reach out before the role is posted.

FAQ
Sales Nav and job boards show you what is already public. HushHiring surfaces the precursor signals — the funding announcement that closed yesterday, the director appointed last week, the contract awarded on Monday. These predict a hiring need 4-8 weeks before any role is posted, and your competitors don't see them.
From public and licensed UK sources — national, regional and sector-trade business press, funding databases, and official public filings. No scraping of LinkedIn or paywalled content, and fully UK GDPR compliant.
Pick one of six specialisms and the desk carries that lane: Technology & Digital; Finance, Legal & Professional Services; Construction, Property & Energy; Industrial, Manufacturing & Consumer; Life Sciences, Healthcare & Public Sector; or Executive & Leadership, which follows C-suite moves in every sector. A Desk plan follows one, a Firm up to five. If your lane runs thin, tell us and we add sources.
The pipeline refreshes every six hours, and a scored digest reaches your inbox each morning at 7am — typically before other recruiters have noticed the public event.
That fee is your competitive moat, but only when you reach the client first. The recruiter who calls the day after a funding round closes — before the hiring manager has even briefed their usual agencies — wins the exclusive brief. HushHiring doesn't replace your network; it tells you where to point it, weeks before anyone else.
