• Build market maps and creative sourcing strategies to reach high-caliber marketers in competitive markets where the best people are rarely looking.
• Build proactive pipelines of Product Marketing and Demand Generation talent so TRM can move quickly as new priorities, segments, or regions emerge.

• Proven success recruiting in high-growth, fast-paced environments where priorities shift frequently.
• Experience partnering with senior leaders and executives, including CMOs and marketing VPs, as a strategic talent advisor.
• A working understanding of how modern marketing teams operate and are measured, so you can tell the difference between a strong pipeline builder, a sharp storyteller, and a great operator.
• The ability to ramp quickly on unfamiliar specialties and turn business needs into clear, credible hiring profiles.
• Strong sourcing skills and the ability to build pipelines in markets where top talent is passive and in demand.
• Comfortable managing a high volume of niche, strategic searches without sacrificing attention to detail or candidate experience.
• Excellent communication and a structured, proactive, async-friendly working style.
• Sound judgment, high ownership, and the composure to operate with urgency and ambiguity across a globally distributed team.
