PROformance OM
About the Role
We are hiring our first dedicated Executive Recruiter — an elite, high-impact hire who will own all C‑suite, EVP/SVP, and Board‑level searches in-house. This is not a volume or generalist recruiting role. You will function as our internal retained search partner, proactively hunting for passive, best‑in‑class leaders. You will have the autonomy, tools, and executive air‑cover normally only found at a top‑tier retained search firm.
Responsibilities
Personally lead 6–12 concurrent executive searches at any time (CEO direct reports, Department Leaders).
Be the primary talent advisor to the Founder/CEO and executive committee on leadership strategy, succession planning, org design, and competitive compensation.
Conduct deep intake sessions with hiring executives and committees to define success profiles and cultural fit.
Build original market maps and target lists of the exact 50–150 executives in North America who can do each job (zero reliance on job boards).
Directly source and engage passive candidates using LinkedIn Recruiter, proprietary networks, and high‑touch outreach (you still pick up the phone).
Run full candidate assessment process: in‑depth interviews, psychometric tools, 360 references, background checks.
Present shortlists, facilitate finalist interviews, lead offer creation and negotiation, and close candidates who weren’t looking.
Manage relationships with any external retained firms we occasionally engage, while keeping the majority of flagship searches in‑house.
Build and maintain proprietary “evergreen” pipelines of consumer, retail, supply‑chain, digital, and marketing executives for future needs.
Qualifications
5+ years of full‑life‑cycle executive recruiting experience with a proven track record of closing C‑suite and Ready Leaders.
You’ve come from either: A top‑tier retained executive search firm
An in‑house executive recruiting role at a high‑growth consumer, retail, food/beverage, or health & wellness brand.
Required Skills
Deep existing network of passive executives in Operations, Supply Chain, Marketing/CMO, Digital/E‑commerce, Finance/CFO, and General Management.
Master‑level sourcing skills — people say about you: “they can find anyone.”
Exceptional executive presence; you are comfortable advising a Founder/CEO and Senior members directly and holding your own in the room.
Entrepreneurial, high‑energy, low‑ego — you thrive in a fast‑moving, high‑expectation environment.
