Phyton Talent Advisors Joins LevelUP HCS Family of Brands

New York, June 1, 2026  —  LevelUP HCS and Phyton Talent Advisors announced that Phyton has joined the LevelUP family of brands, bringing together two talent organizations with shared roots and complementary areas of expertise.

Phyton will continue to operate under its established brand, with the same leadership, team and relationship-driven approach its clients have known for years. Its partners remain actively involved in the business and its client relationships.

For clients, the biggest change is not who they work with, but what they can access.

Phyton brings deep expertise in executive and professional search, direct hire and contract staffing. As part of the LevelUP family of brands, its clients can now tap into LevelUP’s broader capabilities across Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO), Embedded Recruitment, Total Talent, Contingent Workforce and HR Advisory, along with global delivery and technology-enabled recruiting capabilities.

LevelUP clients similarly gain greater access to Phyton’s specialized search and staffing expertise.

“Phyton and LevelUP have a long shared history, including common founding partners and a similar philosophy about how we serve clients,” said Curtis Grajeda, Founder and CEO of LevelUP HCS. “Bringing the brands together allows us to offer clients a broader range of solutions while preserving the specialized expertise and relationships that make each business distinct.”

The connection between the two organizations goes back to their earliest days, with shared founding partners who remain actively involved today. That continuity is an important part of the next chapter for both brands.

“This gives us an opportunity to expand what we can do for our clients without changing what they value about Phyton,” said Nicole Bambace, President of Phyton Talent Advisors. ““Our leadership, our team, our relationships and the way we work with clients remain the same.”

Together, the LevelUP family of brands can support organizations across a wider spectrum of talent needs, from a single critical hire or specialized search to project-based recruiting, flexible workforce programs and enterprise-scale talent acquisition.
