About the role

This is a high-visibility role for a sourcing professional who thrives on building relationships with executive-level candidates and advising Hiring Managers on market strategy at the top of the house. You will own the full sourcing strategy for senior leadership hiring, partnering directly with Hiring Managers and HR leadership.

• Work at the Managing Director, Partner, and Principal level, engaging some of the most senior talent in professional services
• Shape both immediate search execution and the firm’s long-term external sourcing relationships and pipeline
• Play a visible, trusted-advisor role — this is subject-matter-expert-level sourcing, not transactional recruiting

Responsibilities

• Execute work with a significant degree of independence
• Exercise influence and/or manage others in the execution of sourcing strategy
• Responsible for short-term sourcing initiatives and the long-term external sourcing relationships
• Provide value-added sourcing-related insight on market-specific nuances during the goal-setting process
• Participate actively in recruiting activities in assigned markets and business units
• Actively contribute to national sourcing programs and projects
• Own and maintain pipeline of candidates for specific business units
• Accountable for the relevant sourcing budget and sourcing risk management, with alignment to the overall sourcing budget

Requirements

• 5-7 years of sourcing or recruiting experience, with a strong preference for candidates who have sourced or recruited at the executive level (Managing Director, Partner, Principal, or equivalent senior leadership roles)
• Prior experience recruiting or sourcing within a Big 4 or professional/consulting services environment strongly preferred
• Demonstrated ability to work independently, exercise sound judgment, and act as a trusted sourcing advisor to Hiring Managers and HR
• Comfortable owning candidate pipelines and sourcing relationships for high-stakes, senior-level searches
• Bachelor’s degree required
