Requirements

• 7-10+ years of recruiting management experience
• Proven experience sourcing and closing profiles in executive level positions
• Strong knowledge of recruitment best practices, sourcing techniques, and candidate evaluation methods.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and negotiation skills.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple recruitment projects simultaneously.
• Proficiency with applicant tracking systems (ATS), recruitment software, and other HR technologies.
• Relentless drive to find and connect with the best talent
• Ability to connect and effectively communicate with people of all levels
• Exceptional teamwork and multi-tasking skills
• Experience thriving and prioritizing in a constantly changing environment
• Strong attention to detail

Nice To Haves

• Advanced degree or certifications (e.g., SHRM, HRCI) are a plus.
• You know the talent market cold and keep pace as it shifts. You build search strategies using AI tools, and you can explain why one sourcing approach beats another.
• You have built search methodology yourself. Target company lists, talent maps, outreach frameworks and you can point to what you made and what it produced.
• You are a recruiter first and a strategic advisor by instinct. You have managed full-cycle executive searches before, and you can make a complex role requirement simple without losing what makes the hire hard.
• You move fast — like, really fast — without letting standards slip. High volume, high pace, and high quality are not a trade-off here, they are the baseline. You own 10 to 12 active searches simultaneously and get sharper, not shakier, when the pressure is on and timelines are tight.
• You communicate at a bar where your candidate notes and client updates could be published. Clear enough that a hiring manager can act on them the same day they read them.
• You hold strategy and execution in the same week. Designing the search on Monday and running interviews by Wednesday.
• You source with discipline and urgency. That means building and working a pipeline of 150 to 200 targeted prospects per role and maintaining consistent outreach cadences that keep the top of funnel full week over week, not just at kickoff.

Responsibilities

• Develop and execute search strategies to identify and attract top executive and senior level talent
• Partner closely with founders, leadership teams, and hiring managers to understand role requirements, team dynamics, and success profiles
• Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified candidates for current and future searches
• Source candidates through direct outreach, professional networks, referrals, industry research, and social platforms
• Conduct candidate outreach, screening conversations, and in depth assessments to evaluate fit and leadership capability
• Manage the full candidate lifecycle including interviews, feedback loops, and communication with both clients and candidates
• Ensure a thoughtful and positive candidate experience through clear, timely, and transparent communication
• Manage expectations with candidates regarding search timelines, interview processes, and compensation discussions
• Support offer development and negotiate compensation packages in partnership with clients
• Facilitate a smooth transition for placed candidates by checking in at key milestones, including day 1 and the 30 day mark, to support early integration and alignment.
• Track and maintain accurate records of searches, candidate pipelines, and recruiting activity in the ATS
• Stay informed on industry trends, talent markets, and competitor landscape to provide strategic insights to clients
• Ensure all recruiting activities are conducted in alignment with legal and ethical hiring practices
