Shared Success, Real Impact
This isn’t about us. It’s about what we can build together. In 2020, Lucy Ratoff and Paul Bryce founded Encore with decades of experience and one belief: people first, relationships second, and business third. Because when people feel valued and supported, they find work that inspires, and teams that thrive. Our operating system, built on connection, spark, and belonging, is more than a process. It’s how we create lasting impactful partnerships that match ambition with opportunity.
Your success fuels ours, and together, we shape the future. And with every placement, we give back. Two percent of our revenue supports social and environmental causes, showing how every successful match creates a greater impact.
Our Values
Connection happens when you feel truly seen. It’s the trust clients feel when we understand their team’s heartbeat and the relief candidates feel when their story is heard.
Connection isn’t a box to tick, it’s about knowing the person behind the job title and making it count.
Spark is what turns "good enough" into "perfect." It’s the energy of finding the one role that feels made for you or the one person who lights up a team.
Spark isn’t a lucky moment, it’s what happens when effort meets understanding, and everything clicks.
Belonging is finding your place. It’s candidates stepping into a role that just fits. It’s clients watching their teams thrive, not just work.
Belonging isn’t about blending in; it’s about standing out where it matters most. And when it’s right, it feels like everything falls into place.
