How the desk runs
One platform, from the market map to the offer.
Map the market
Build the target list on the assignment record — the clubs, the head coaches, academy managers and heads of performance inside them, and who has already been spoken to.
Confidential approaches
Approaches, conversations and declines are recorded against the assignment, so a discreet search still leaves a trail the team can work from.
Longlist to shortlist
Camps and seasons repeat, so the coaches who worked the last holiday programme are the fastest to rebook. Move candidates through the assignment stages with the reasoning attached, and send a formatted shortlist from the record.
Assessment and interviews
Interview stages, feedback and assessment notes sit on the candidate within the assignment. At this level the club is judging whether the coach is cleared and qualified for the age group, and the evidence for it belongs on the record.
Retained milestones
Retainer stages are tracked against the assignment, so what has been billed and what is due sits with the work rather than beside it.
The client report
Dashman shows fill-rate by club, cover by session and the qualifications you are short of, so the update is drawn from the record rather than assembled before the call.
Checks and clearances
Safeguarding confirmed before any placement
Where a role involves children or vulnerable adults, clearance and first aid gate the placement. Both sit on the worker record with expiry alerts.

Questions
Executive Search Sporting recruitment software questions.
Does it support retained assignments?
Retainer milestones are tracked against the assignment alongside the stages, so what has been billed and what is still due sits with the work.
Can approaches be kept confidential?
Approaches and conversations are recorded against the assignment with the access controls you have configured, so a discreet search still leaves a usable trail.
How is market mapping handled?
The target list of clubs and coaches is built on the assignment record, including who has already been approached and what they said.
What does the client see?
Assignment progress is drawn from the record stage by stage, so the update is reported rather than reconstructed before each call.
What checks does a sporting placement need?
Where a role involves children or vulnerable adults, clearance and first aid gate the placement. Both sit on the worker record with expiry alerts. The desk holds enhanced DBS with expiry alerts where the role requires it, coaching qualifications with expiry alerts, first aid certification on the worker record, references confirmed on the worker record.
