• Set, monitor, and achieve recruiting benchmarks, metrics, and service-level agreements (SLAs), ensuring timely fulfillment of searches and consistent pipeline health.

• Prioritize multiple concurrent searches effectively, balancing urgency with quality and adjusting focus based on business needs and data insights.

• Build and maintain long-term candidate networks and talent communities to support current and future hiring needs across go-to-market functions.

• Own and drive recruiting programs such as referral campaigns, networking events, and conference engagement to strengthen the overall talent pipeline.

• Demonstrate proactive ownership by identifying process gaps, proposing improvements, and implementing workflow enhancements to increase efficiency and impact.

• Use data to influence stakeholders, including pushing back constructively on hiring decisions or processes when necessary, and backing recommendations with evidence.

• Collaborate with senior hiring managers and leaders, demonstrating strong executive presence and structured communication in meetings and updates.

• Document and share best practices around sourcing methodologies, outreach strategies, and candidate engagement to uplift the broader recruiting team.

• Ensure all candidate and hiring activities align with high standards of professionalism, confidentiality, and customer service for both candidates and internal stakeholders.

Essential Skills

• Demonstrated ability to manage, prioritize, and fulfill multiple job searches against defined timelines and service-level agreements.

• Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey information clearly, concisely, and professionally to candidates and stakeholders.

• Executive presence and polished communication style suitable for partnering directly with senior hiring managers and business leaders.

• Demonstrated organizational skills, including the ability to manage multiple requisitions, tasks, and priorities with a strong sense of urgency.

• Evidence of proactive ownership, such as building processes, improving workflows, automating tasks, or using data to influence decisions.

• Fluency with AI tools beyond basic administrative use, including leveraging platforms such as ChatGPT or similar tools to enhance sourcing workflows or recruiting outcomes.

• Experience improving or automating recruiting workflows, such as creating templates, building sourcing automations, or implementing new tools.

• Ability to provide specific, detailed examples of past sourcing strategies, candidate journeys, and process improvements rather than high-level generalities.

• Background in human resources or talent acquisition functions, with familiarity in both high-touch and complex hiring environments.
