At the Hired Guns, candidate success is as important as client success. This formula has contributed to a great work environment and off-the-charts growth. (Besides being named one of 2017’s Best Staffing Firms to Work For, we are also on Inc. Magazine’s list of fastest-growing firms in the country.)
Now we’re on the hunt for a digitally-minded recruiter with experience covering UX, Design or Product Management. So, if you are looking for a home at a staffing agency with top-tier clients, minimal bureaucracy, and a real moral compass, this is an opportunity you won’t want to pass up.
Nitty Gritty
This role is high-visibility and client-facing, focusing on true account management: Meaning that it isn’t about sales, it’s about expanding client and talent relationships by taking taking a consultative approach to each gig, mapping the needs of the organization, understanding the business and culture — then finding the perfect candidate is who just the right fit.
Because of the unique ‘full-desk’ approach that is the hallmark of The Hired Guns, the expectation is that every recruiter will be proactive, entrepreneurial, and collaborative — while possessing a full understanding of both the business and the marketplace.
Hired Guns Profile
This gig is perfect for a recruiter or staffing account exec with at least three years experience at an agency, preferably covering emerging-technology disciplines, such as product management, UX, design or the creative side of digital marketing and tech.
The ideal candidate is someone who is as comfortable going to a Design MeetUp as a trip to SourceCon, and can play LinkedIn and an ATS (Bullhorn, Compas) like a fiddle. This is an especially good role for someone who feels siloed by human resources departments and would love a direct line to the hiring managers.
Inside Skinny
The Hired Guns is a shop that values both emotional and analytical intelligence. So, if you’re someone who loves the feeling of matchmaking great talent with great teams, your heart is in the right place. But, if you don’t know your numbers (like gross margin), this isn’t the gig for you.
Net-Net
The clients are top-tier; the team is highly accomplished and loads of fun; the work is self-directed, entrepreneurial and well-compensated. The position comes with an expense account for client/candidate entertaining, a LinkedIn recruiter seat, and support for educational development opportunities. The only question is, “Are you ready to level-up your game?”
