The leaders who actually move PWin — in seat when you need them.
Search, direct-hire placement, and fractional leadership for govcon firms. Built by people who have run capture, hired the bench, and lived through diligence.
Three tiers, one outcome.
Most firms need a mix — a long-term hire here, a fractional executive there, surge specialists in between. The Aptos talent ladder is built that way.
We don't do volume recruiting. We work shortlist-first, with screens calibrated to govcon reps, mission fit, and the leadership traits the next 18 months actually demand.
Where Aptos is strongest.
Chief Growth Officer
Owner of pipeline, capture, and revenue strategy across the firm.
VP / Director of Capture

Reps over résumés.
Mission and customer fit
Has the candidate operated in front of the customers and missions you're prioritizing?
Capture and proposal reps
Real, scoped pursuits — with PWin outcomes — not just titles on a profile.
Operating leverage
Can the candidate build a system that lasts — or only run themselves into the ground?
Boardroom credibility
Will this leader be legible to your board, your bank, and a future buyer?
Three ways firms work with us.
