What we’re looking for
- 5+ years recruiting for cleared National Security Sales roles, with a strong, active network of cleared talent.
- Demonstrated success filling hard-to-close roles through outbound sourcing, tailored messaging, and persistent follow-up.
- Strong command of pipeline metrics and conversion data, with the ability to diagnose funnel issues and adjust strategy in real time.
- Comfort operating in a quota-like environment, balancing multiple searches while prioritizing the highest-impact roles.
- Highly persuasive communicator who can influence senior candidates and hiring leaders, manage expectations, and build trust quickly.
- Grit, resilience, and a closing mindset—you don’t wait for inbound; you create momentum and drive outcomes.
About The Team
Our talent team is fully remote, embracing async communication and collaboration through Slack channels, thorough documentation, and proactive updates to keep work moving forward smoothly across time zones. We’re committed to structured alignment, holding weekly hiring syncs for each role, weekly team sourcing syncs, and bi-weekly team meetings to ensure everyone is on the same page and to solve challenges collectively. Driven by a dedication to our craft, we continuously refine our best practices and data quality to deliver an exceptional experience for both internal stakeholders and candidates, supported by precise, reliable reporting. All team members, regardless of location, maintain at least a 4-hour overlap with PST business hours to enable real-time collaboration and drive solutions effectively across the team.
