Kanbrick Talent Acquisition Role

Kanbrick is building something different: a network of exceptional leaders, relationships, and talent intelligence that grows more valuable with every company we partner with. You'll help us build and scale that capability from the ground up, combining entrepreneurship, relationship building, technology, and hands-on hiring. You'll work closely with business owners, CEOs, and our investment and operating teams, helping us find and develop relationships with the leaders who can build enduring businesses.

Kanbrick is a long-term investment partnership: we partner with a small number of family and founder-led businesses and support their growth through the Kanbrick Business System (KBS). Founded by Tracy Britt Cool and Brian Humphrey, Kanbrick was built to be the option they wished existed for their own families' businesses - one with a decades-long horizon, an operating team that does the work, and partnerships built to be truly win/win.

Our team works shoulder-to-shoulder with the leaders of our partner companies through KBS, our tailored approach for managing midsize businesses. We do the work, not just give advice. In addition - alongside our partnerships - we bring together a broader group of CEOs and owners of family and founder-led businesses to learn, share, and grow through the Kanbrick Community.

Joining Kanbrick is a chance to spend your career on work that compounds. We're a small team building enduring businesses. And because we partner for the long term, what you build here doesn't get undone at the next sale - it grows, year after year, in real businesses with real people in them. We hire for capability, character, and culture, and we keep our values simple: act like owners, get better every day, live with integrity, win together.

Kanbrick is growing, and so is the opportunity to build a differentiated talent capability across our businesses. We partner with a small number of companies for the long term, adding two to four businesses each year, while continuing to grow our own team.

We're looking for someone who loves building. Someone who sees an opportunity to create a better system, is comfortable starting with a blank page, and enjoys experimenting, learning, and improving as they go.

You'll be part of a small team with real ownership over how we identify, engage, and hire exceptional talent. Your work will span four areas:

• Build scalable leadership pipelines
• Identify and develop networks of exceptional operators across the functions and industries most relevant to our businesses. Build market maps, sourcing strategies, and proactive pipelines so we're developing relationships with talented people long before there's an open role.
• Grow the Kanbrick Talent Network
• Help design and grow a differentiated network of senior leaders who want to stay connected with Kanbrick. Experiment with how we build relationships, connect people with our broader community, and create value for talented operators over time. Turn what works into a repeatable program that can scale.
• Help our businesses hire exceptional leaders
• Partner with our team and business leaders on critical searches, from defining what success looks like to identifying, assessing, and closing candidates. Bring curiosity, commercial judgment, and rigor to the process. Use every search as an opportunity to strengthen the network and improve how we work.
• Build better tools, processes, and ways of working
• Develop practical systems that make us more effective as we grow. Use AI, automation, and data to improve how we find talent, manage relationships, and learn from our hiring work. Test new approaches, measure results, and build playbooks the broader team can use.
