Job description

Salary Range: $83,000-$110,000

Location: Remote within US, Eastern or Central Time Zones Preferred

Build the teams that build a better world.

We're a home for people who want their work to mean something.

Behind every campaign that moves people to give, act and show up is a team that believes in the work. At VeraData Holdings, our enterprise (VeraData, Avalon, FaircomNY, Teal Media, AcuityIM and JCR) partner with nonprofits and mission-driven organizations working to create meaningful, positive change in the world. Together, we bring the data, fundraising strategy and creative that help their causes grow.

Our people choose this work because they care about it. They're curious and talented, and proud of the missions they help move forward. They're why our work succeeds and why our clients trust us.

Now we're looking for a Talent Acquisition Lead to bring in talented people with fresh perspectives who share our commitment to meaningful work. If you want your work to build something that matters, and you love connecting great people with purpose, we'd love to meet you.

Why this role matters

You'll lead recruiting across our whole enterprise. You'll find the analysts, strategists, creatives and client partners who care about the mission as much as the craft. You'll own hiring from first conversation to accepted offer. You'll also help shape how we tell our story to the people we want to hire.

What We Stand For

• Purpose-driven impact. We exist to help mission-driven organizations create meaningful change and build stronger, more equitable, inclusive and resilient communities.
• Human dignity and inclusion. Everyone deserves dignity, respect and the chance to thrive. We build a culture where people feel safe asking questions, raising concerns and offering different points of view.
• Extraordinary people, exceptional work. We hire talented people, invest in their growth and give them room to do the best work of their careers in service of missions that matter.
• Trust through transparency. We communicate openly, follow through on our commitments, and own it and make it right when we fall short.
• Better because of each other. We're a family of companies with different histories and strengths, building something together that none of us could build alone.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with hiring managers across our companies to define what great looks like before a role opens
• Source, screen and guide candidates through a hiring process that is structured, fair and respectful of their time
• Build lasting talent pipelines and communities for the roles we hire most often and the ones that are hardest to fill
• Research market pay, prepare offers with our Total Rewards team, and negotiate within approved ranges
• Champion internal mobility so our own people can grow their careers with us
• Lead our employer brand across careers pages, postings and social media, and represent us at recruitment and industry events
• Set consistent interview standards and scorecards, train hiring managers, and teach interviewing to our hiring teams.
• Track the metrics that matter (time to fill, source of hire, offer acceptance, quality of hire) and keep improving how we hire
• Keep our hiring compliant with EEO, pay transparency and background check requirements, and keep our ATS records clean

What You Bring

• 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting, including in-house recruiting across multiple functions or business units
• Strong skills with applicant tracking systems, LinkedIn Recruiter and sourcing tools; HRIS experience (such as UKG) is a plus
• A candidate-first mindset, and the judgment to balance speed, quality and fairness
• Enthusiasm for partnering with nonprofits and mission-driven organizations, and for finding people who are excited to advance their missions
• Bonus points for experience recruiting for agencies, consulting firms, data organizations or nonprofit-serving organizations; building employer brand programs; or recruiting across multiple companies or after an acquisition
• AIRS, LinkedIn Certified Professional Recruiter or SHRM-CP certification preferred

What We Offer

Base salary of $83,000 - $110,000.

Insurance coverage that starts fast: medical, dental, vision, life and disability coverage all begin the first of the month after you join.

Health coverage that puts you first

• $0 premiums for employee-only coverage on our high-deductible health plan, plus a contribution from us to your Health Savings Account (HSA). The HSA is yours to keep, grow and use for health costs now or later.
• A generous contribution toward coverage for your family, so adding your spouse, partner or kids is more affordable.
• Choose the plan that fits your life. Want lower costs when you get care? Pick our $1,000-deductible plan, or our $0-deductible plan for the most predictable costs. We contribute toward your premium on every plan.
• Free counseling sessions, virtual therapy and 24/7 virtual care

Dental and vision, covered

• $0 premiums for employee-only coverage on our base dental and vision plans
• Buy-up options for more coverage, including orthodontia and larger allowances for glasses and contacts

Protection at no cost to you

• Basic life and AD&D insurance, short-term disability and long-term disability, 100% paid by VeraData

Investing in your future

• Retirement savings with a strong match. After three months, contribute 5% of your pay to your 401(k), and we'll add 4%. Our match is fully vested immediately, so it's yours to keep from the moment it lands in your account.

Time to recharge

• 10+ paid company holidays each year, starting day one, plus a few bonus days off when we can.
• Flexible Time Off after three months, to support work-life harmony. We encourage new team members to take three weeks of vacation in their first year.

Location

This is a remote role with occasional travel to connect with teams and attend events. We prefer candidates based in the Eastern or Central time zone so you can collaborate in real time during our core hours of 9:00 AM-5:30 PM Eastern.
