Lead Talent Acquisition Partner

The Mission

We are looking for a powerhouse Lead Recruiter to own the end-to-end talent lifecycle. This is a high-impact role for a "player-coach" who loves the thrill of the hunt but also has the analytical mind to design a world-class hiring machine. You will serve as a trusted advisor to our C-Suite and Board of Directors, translating business goals into a sophisticated talent strategy that wins in a competitive market.

The Pillars of Your Role

Executive Search & High-Stakes Partnerships

• C-Suite & Board Liaison: Act as the primary talent partner for executive leadership. You’ll lead intake sessions, calibrate requirements, and provide candid market insights to the Board.

• High-Touch Candidate Experience: Manage the red-carpet journey for executive and specialized roles, ensuring every interaction reflects our brand’s prestige.

Hands-On Full-Cycle Recruiting

• The Hunt: You aren’t afraid to roll up your sleeves. You’ll lead the charge on "hard-to-fill" roles, using advanced sourcing techniques to find the passive talent others miss.

• Closing Specialist: Navigate complex negotiations, including executive compensation packages, equity structures, and relocation logistics.

Strategy & Scaling

• Talent Roadmap: Move beyond reactive hiring. You will design a proactive 12-month talent strategy that aligns with our long-term fiscal goals.

• Employer Branding: Work with Marketing to refine our "Why Us?" story, ensuring we are a magnet for top-tier talent.

Data & Operational Excellence

• Metrics that Matter: Move past "time-to-fill." You’ll track quality of hire, pipeline velocity, and diversity metrics to provide the Board with actionable data.

• Process Optimization: Audit and evolve our tech stack (ATS, CRM, AI sourcing tools) to ensure a frictionless experience for both hiring managers and candidates.

The Profile: What You Bring

• The Experience: 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with a proven track record of placing C-level executives and working directly with Board members.

• The Mindset: You are a data-driven storyteller. You don’t just report numbers; you explain what they mean for the business.

• Strategic Agility: You can pivot from a deep-dive sourcing session to a high-level strategy presentation without missing a beat.

• Negotiation Mastery: You understand the nuances of executive compensation and know how to close high-value candidates in a candidate-driven market.

• Tech Fluency: Expert-level knowledge of modern ATS platforms (e.g., Greenhouse, Lever) and data visualization tools.

Why This Role Matters

You are the gatekeeper of our culture and the catalyst for our growth. In this role, your influence won't just be felt in the HR department—it will be visible in the boardroom and reflected in the company’s bottom line.
