• Market Intelligence: Serve as a talent market expert, tracking competitor hiring trends, compensation benchmarks, and talent availability to inform sourcing strategy and advise recruiting partners.

Basic Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years of recruiting or sourcing experience (agency and/or in‑house), with a proven track record supporting Sales or GTM hiring in a high‑velocity environment.
• In‑Office Availability: Ability to work from the local office a minimum of 3 days a week.
• Sourcing Depth: Demonstrated expertise sourcing passive candidates through advanced direct‑sourcing techniques—Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, talent mapping, and competitive intelligence.
• Agility & Resilience: Proven ability to adapt to shifting priorities and thrive in a highly fluid, ambiguous environment.
• Outreach Craft: Strong ability to write compelling, personalized outreach that converts passive candidates into active conversations—including cold calling and phone‑based relationship building.
• Market Knowledge: Familiarity with technology/SaaS markets and the ability to articulate the Agentic Enterprise value proposition to passive candidates.
• Execution: Ability to manage a high volume of sourcing workstreams simultaneously and deliver pipeline on deadline.
• Tools: Proficiency with LinkedIn Recruiter, Workday ATS, Slack, GoodTime, and Google preferred.
