What's the next ten years of your career worth in real ownership?
The Wilkinson Firm (TWF) is an enterprise workforce strategy and staffing firm. Two divisions today: HR Advisory for the mental health industry and Premium Hospitality Staffing. A GovCon vertical is emerging across both. Headquartered in NC and Atlanta. We launched in April 2025 and we are now in Year 2 of operations. Three active staffing contracts in delivery. FY26 trajectory $425-525K. Zero loans, zero institutional debt. A healthy valuation already on the table. Defined path to $5M+ over the next 24 months. This is a true ground-floor seat for the right CRO who wants to win together and build something great with us.
Partnership structure (LLC member with profit distributions)
This is a partnership role, not an employment role. You join as an LLC member with a defined membership interest. Cross-division CRO membership lives either at the holding-co level or pro-rata across division LLCs, negotiable based on revenue allocation.
The membership interest tiers are the headline. Tier 3 (3-8%) grants at hire if you clear a 6-month trial against the 5-gate evaluation. Tier 4 (8-15%, true partner level) progresses at month 18-24 with sustained firm-wide revenue performance. Vesting runs four years with a one-year cliff. Zero institutional debt means no forced dilution from future investor rounds, so your membership stays your membership.
Profit distributions flow quarterly, proportional to membership. Direct attribution adds 3-5% override on total firm revenue and 5-10% on revenue you directly sourced. Bonus stack: $25,000 at first $1M ARR milestone, $50,000 at $2.5M ARR, $100,000 at $5M ARR.
Guaranteed monthly distributions are the honest read on cash. We're a startup. Day 1-90 is $0 while you ramp on revenue attribution + membership vesting. Months 3-4, $3,000-$5,000/month activates once first division-wide revenue uplift is measurable. Months 6-12, $5,000-$10,000/month at $750K+ firm-wide attributable revenue. Year 1 OTE at target performance: $100,000-$250,000 cash + membership vesting.
Tax structure is K-1, not W-2. Self-employment tax applies. Talk to your CPA before signing. The founder takes no guaranteed monthly distributions today either. We share the upside as members.
