About Fieldhouse

Built by people
who lived the problem.

Not a gap we found on a market report. A problem we watched happen — on the recruiting side, the finance side, and the product side — and couldn't find a tool that actually fixed it.

What we actually believe

Broken hiring isn't a people problem.

It's an infrastructure problem. Bad tools create bad processes — not the other way around.

Adoption is the only metric that matters.

A platform nobody uses is worse than no platform at all.

We'd rather lose the deal than the wrong fit.

If Fieldhouse isn't right for you, we'll say so on the first call.

The handoff is where hiring falls apart.

We built the whole lifecycle in one place so nothing gets lost in translation.

The founding story

Hiring is broken in a very specific way.

It's not that teams don't care. It's that the tools they're using weren't built to work together. Recruiters source in one tool, manage relationships in another, track candidates somewhere else, communicate through email, and rebuild context every time work moves between systems. Whether you're running a search firm, staffing agency, or internal talent team, the same problem keeps showing up: the recruiting process is fragmented.

We watched this happen — in search firms, in staffing agencies, in lean in-house talent teams, in organizations that were recruiting well but managing it badly. The problem wasn't effort. It was infrastructure.

So we built Fieldhouse: one system connecting the work before the application, through the recruiting process, and beyond the hire.

The Team

The team behind Fieldhouse.

Every demo, every onboarding call, and every support conversation still comes from one of us — not a sales team we hired to talk about a product we built.

Chris Thornhill

Co-Founder & CEO

Chris spent years on the recruiting side watching great candidates fall through the cracks of broken processes. He built Fieldhouse to solve the problem he couldn't stop running into — and leads the company with the same directness he wishes more tools had.

Chad Hammock

Co-Founder & CFO

Chad brings the financial and operational rigor that keeps Fieldhouse honest — about pricing, about commitments, and about what it actually costs to build something that lasts. He's the reason our numbers mean something.

Sara Johnson

CPO

Sara develops the product — every screen, every workflow, every decision about what Fieldhouse should feel like to use. Her focus on getting the details right is why teams actually adopt it instead of abandoning it after week two.

How we operate

A few things we actually believe.

Not wall art. Things that come up on calls, in product decisions, and in how we talk to customers.

🎯

Adoption beats features

A tool with 200 features that nobody uses is worse than a simple one that gets used every day. We build for how people actually work, not how they say they work in a discovery call.

🔍

Honest about fit

We'd rather tell you Fieldhouse isn't right for you in a 30-minute demo than have you figure it out three months in. Bad-fit customers are bad for everyone — especially them.

🤝

We stay through setup

Handing someone a login and a help doc isn't onboarding. We're in the room — virtually or otherwise — until your team actually feels confident using the platform.

📐

Details are the product

The difference between a tool people trust and one they tolerate usually comes down to the small things. We sweat them — because the people using this platform are making decisions about people's careers.
