Senior Talent Partner - GTM
About The Position
Wordsmith is building a legal operations platform for in-house teams, bringing legal requests, AI-supported routine work, lawyer judgment, and work records into one system. More than 500 companies use Wordsmith, which is backed by $100 million from Index Ventures, General Catalyst, Highland Europe, and others. The Senior Talent Partner owns go-to-market recruiting from intake through signed offer, including hiring Account Executives, SDRs, sales leaders, Customer Success, and Partnerships. The role supports a revenue plan that depends on sellers who can build their own pipeline and close enterprise deals with General Counsels. It requires close partnership with sales leaders, disciplined assessment of candidates' deal evidence, and the ability to close sought-after candidates. This is not a coordination role.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, working on quota-carrying sales roles in B2B SaaS.
- A quantifiable track record, including hires per quarter, offer acceptance, and how recruited sellers ramped.
- Most recent hires were sourced directly rather than coming from inbound.
- Ability to assess sales CVs, including attainment, deal size, territory, and inherited book.
- Fluency with Ashby or a similar ATS.
- Practical use of AI in one's own workflow.
Nice To Haves
- Experience hiring Account Executives selling to legal, procurement, or other regulated buyers.
- Experience building a sales team in a new office or market from zero.
- Understanding of MEDDPICC or similar sales methodologies sufficient to assess candidates.
Responsibilities
- Deliver bar-raising GTM hires each quarter.
- Own a robust, fair, and fast recruiting process optimized to hire the best talent rather than the best interviewers.
- Source sellers directly by mapping competitor sales teams, tracking attainment signals, and personalizing outreach with AI.
- Assess candidates' real deal evidence, including ACV, sales cycle length, self-sourced pipeline, and methodology, rather than relying on titles.
- Own the candidate experience from first message to first day, and close candidates on OTE, equity, and the opportunity.
- Partner with and challenge the business when necessary, while coaching it to become a better hiring team.
