Strategic Growth Partner (independent)

Job Description

Job Description

Project Overview

HireScale is building the infrastructure for a more flexible, mobile, and outcome-based workforce—making it easier for companies to engage high-quality independent talent while giving professionals greater access to opportunity, mobility, and economic independence.

HireScale is opening multiple Strategic Growth Partners for established independent operators who want to help build the next generation of the talent and work economy.

This is not a traditional sales or employment role. Partners operate as independent business advisors, leveraging their existing expertise, relationships, and market presence to introduce HireScale to companies that can benefit from outcome-based access to independent talent.

Partner Categories

We are looking for one partner in each of the following areas:

Consulting & Workforce Services

• Big Four / Management Consulting
• VMS / Workforce Technology
• Staffing / Talent Services

Independent Business Consulting

• Talent Acquisition
• Human Resources / People
• Operations
• GTM / Revenue

Independent Technical Consulting

• AI
• Engineering
• Product
• Data Analytics

Partners will work directly with HireScale to develop opportunities, build relationships, activate accounts, and grow revenue within their area of expertise.

Scope of Work & Core Capabilities

Strategic Growth Partners will identify and introduce qualified companies and decision-makers, develop relationships with HR, TA, People, Operations, Technology, and executive leaders, and generate and qualify new business opportunities.

Partners will conduct discovery conversations, introduce HireScale's platform and engagement model, help organizations identify opportunities to engage independent talent for outcomes, and support proposals, engagement briefs, and account development.

Partners may also manage accounts they originate or actively develop, promote HireScale through their professional networks and communities, participate in strategic growth initiatives, and provide market intelligence to help shape HireScale's products and programs.

The strongest partners will do more than make introductions. They will create opportunities, actively engage and push LinkedIn content, develop relationships, and build a repeatable commercial channel for HireScale.
