About The Position

We're looking for a Technical Recruiter to play a foundational role in scaling our team and ensuring we bring in the best people to support Gallatin's mission. As a member of our team, you own the full candidate lifecycle, care deeply about candidate experience, and act as a true partner to every hiring manager you support.

You thrive in fast-moving environments and are motivated by learning, growth, and the challenge of closing exceptional people.

Track record of closing candidates in competitive markets and managing complex offer negotiations.
You enjoy working with hiring managers and teams to improve processes.
Willingness and enthusiasm to travel for conference attendance and recruiting events.
Genuine motivation to grow — you want to get better, take on more, and build a career in talent, not just fill seats.
