Chairturn

The day a top job opens at a public company, you know.

When a chief executive, finance chief, or other senior officer leaves or arrives at a US public company, the company must tell the government within four business days. It does that in a public filing. Chairturn reads every one of those filings as it lands and tells you the same day, in plain words, with a link to the filing itself.

How it works

Four steps, and the first one is the law, not us.

The company files

Within four business days of a senior officer or director leaving, arriving, or getting a new pay deal, a US public company files a short public report with the SEC. About two hundred of these arrive every week.

We read it

Chairturn picks up each filing within minutes, finds the part about the person and the job, and works out what happened: someone left, someone was appointed, someone is filling in for now, or a successor was named.

You get told

An email or a message in Slack, the same day, with the company, the job, what the filing says in its own words, and a link to it. Choose which jobs, industries, and states you care about.

You keep track

Every senior job at every public company has a page: who holds it, since when, whether it is open or covered by someone temporary. Your firm can add notes and mark which ones you are working on.

What you get

  • The same-day alert, in plain words, for every senior job change that matches what you care about.
  • The exact sentence from the filing, quoted, with a link. We never paraphrase what happened to a person; we show you what the company wrote.
  • A Monday list of the week, free, whether or not you pay for alerts.
  • A page for every senior job at every public company, with its history back to 2020, so you can see a company has had three finance chiefs in four years before you pick up the phone.
  • Temporary appointments flagged. When a filing says "interim", a permanent hire usually follows within a year.
  • Notes and a "we're on this" mark your whole firm can see, so two partners never chase the same seat.

Who this is for

People whose work starts the moment a senior job changes hands.

Executive search firms

Small and mid-sized firms that place chief executives, finance chiefs, and other senior officers, and want to know the day the seat opens rather than the week the news breaks.

Interim executive firms

Firms that supply experienced people to cover a senior job while a company searches. A filing that says "interim" is your signal.

Coaches and advisors

Executive coaches, onboarding specialists, and investor-relations advisors who work with newly appointed leaders in their first months.

Straight answers

Where does the information come from?

From the companies themselves. US public companies must report senior officer and director changes to the Securities and Exchange Commission on a form called an 8-K. The section about people is called Item 5.02. The filings are public and free; anyone can read them on the SEC's website. We read all of them so you don't have to.

Can I just read the filings myself?

Yes. There are about two hundred a week, written in legal language, and they arrive at all hours. Chairturn reads them within minutes, finds the part that matters, puts it in plain words, and sends you only the ones you care about.

Do you say anything about the people involved?

No. We report what the filing states: the role, the dates, and the company's own words. We never add opinions about a person, and if someone asks to be left out of our pages we remove them.

Does this cover private companies?

No. Private companies do not have to file these reports. Chairturn covers companies that report to the SEC, which is roughly every company listed on a US stock exchange plus some that are not.

What if you get one wrong?

Every alert quotes the filing and links to it, so you can check in one click. If we misread a filing, we say so in the next Monday list and correct the page. Anything we are unsure about is reviewed by a person before it goes out.

Will you send emails to companies on my behalf?

No. Whether and how to contact a company is entirely yours.
