  • Stay current on hiring trends, compensation, and talent availability within the Finance & Accounting market.

What We’re Looking For

  • Prior staffing and recruiting experience is highly preferred.
  • Finance & Accounting recruiting experience is strongly preferred.
  • Experience sourcing, interviewing, and managing candidates throughout the full recruiting lifecycle.
  • Strong understanding of professional-level recruiting and the ability to work on specialized and complex searches.
  • Strong relationship-building and communication skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple searches and priorities simultaneously.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, metrics-driven environment.
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills.
  • Proactive, self-motivated, and competitive.
  • Someone who takes ownership of their work and enjoys building relationships over the long term.

What We Offer
