The concept

What is a liftout?

A liftout is hiring an entire high-performing team from another company—not just individuals who used to work together, but the whole team with their trust, chemistry, and track record intact.

It's been happening in law firms, investment banks, and consulting for decades. In 2024, it went mainstream in tech.

Research shows stars who move alone see immediate performance decline. Teams who move together maintain their success.

Liftouts happening right now

Not ancient history—these deals happened this year.

Big Tech is spending billions to acquire teams intact. Law firms are moving 40+ lawyers at once. The pattern is clear: when you need to move fast, you hire a team.

What changes when you move together?

The difference between starting over alone and arriving with momentum.

Solo resume

  • One person, competing against everyone
  • Generic skills list, no proof of collaboration
  • Hope you mesh with strangers
  • Start from scratch building trust
  • 12 months to peak performance

Team profile

  • Complementary skills, proven together
  • Shared accomplishments you can verify
  • Trust already built over years
  • Day-one productivity, not day-one awkwardness
  • Skip forming, storming, norming—start performing

“Won't they just leave together too?”

Teams don't leave on a whim. They leave because something broke—wrong culture fit, broken promises, dead-end growth paths.

They're not looking for another stepping stone. They're looking for a home.

Be that home, and you inherit loyalty forged through years of working together—before they ever walked through your door.

Research shows only 20% of job changers are serial hoppers. The other 80% just want a better situation.

Why it works

A team board, not a job board

Job boards are for individuals. We built the first platform for teams—and the companies who want to hire them intact.

Chemistry you can't fake

No retreat or personality test creates what years of collaboration does.

Skip 12 months of hoping people gel

Teams that move together hit the ground running. No forming, storming, or norming.

Bigger budgets, better titles together

Negotiate as a collective. Your combined value exceeds what any individual could command.

You control who sees you

Go anonymous, selective, or public. Only verified companies can reach you.

“Stars do not develop in a vacuum; their performance depends heavily on the people with whom they work. If they can bring some of that firm-specific relational capital with them, their chances of maintaining their exceptional performance increase dramatically.”
Harvard Business Review

Boris Groysberg, Harvard Business School — “Chasing Stars”

Don't leave your best work behind. Bring it with you.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

We're building something new. Here's what you need to know.

Still have questions?

We respond within 24 hours

Yes. You control your visibility: go fully anonymous, selective, or public. Only verified companies can view anonymous profiles, and all conversations are NDA-protected from the first interaction.

Completely free. No sign-up fee, no charges to create a profile, no cost to connect with companies. You pay nothing—ever. The only investment is your talent.

Job boards are for individuals. Liftout is the first platform built for teams. Think of it as a team board—you post a profile together, and companies who want to hire intact teams find you. This didn't exist before.

That's okay. Teams can be as small as two people. Moving with even one trusted colleague transforms a lonely process into a shared adventure. Start with whoever's ready.

Scale. Behind closed doors, you're limited to who you know. Online, your team reaches companies you'd never meet through back channels—more offers, better terms, the right fit. Liftouts have always happened for the well-connected. We're just making it accessible to everyone.

Loyalty is earned, not owed. If your whole team is looking together, that says more about where you are than where you're going. Teams don't leave companies they love.

Teams who've developed a unique blend of specialized complementary skills, cohesive dynamics, and strong client relationships—but feel constrained from reaching their full potential together. Partners at law firms, specialized engineering squads, research units, creative teams—any group that performs better together than apart.

Create your team profile highlighting your collective skills, track record, and readiness for new opportunities. Companies actively searching for teams like yours will reach out when they see potential.

Yes. Liftouts have been common practice in law, investment banking, and consulting for decades—Harvard Business Review has written about them since 2006. But there was never a platform for it. We built one.

Need help with something specific? We're happy to answer any questions and walk you through the process before you commit.
