Search operations. Run the operational backbone of every retained search - co-develop the search strategy, collate all necessary materials & outreach collateral, stand it up in the ATS, structure the pipeline, hold the research and outreach cadence, and keep each search on track against its milestones from brief to onboarding. You are the person who always knows the true state of every search.
Systems & infrastructure. Own and continuously improve our tooling stack. Design the workflows, templates and trackers that let a small senior team punch far above its size. Build the playbook that makes our quality repeatable rather than heroic.
Client-grade outputs. Produce and quality-control the artefacts clients see - search strategy overviews, marketing materials, process documents, calibration lists, dedicated search dashboards & trackers, long-lists with assessment summaries, shortlist documents, candidate write-ups, interview preparation notes, reference summaries, status reports. Everything that leaves the firm should look like it came from the market leader in our space because - to our client partners - that’s who we already are.
Candidate experience. Manage extensive correspondence, coordinate scheduling across timezones, deliver decisions/outcomes, manage feedback processes. Help ensure that every person we touch - placed or not - comes away with a high opinion of us. Our reputation in small, referral-driven talent pools depends on it.
Data & reporting. Maintain pipeline metrics and search dashboards, run the firm’s reporting rhythm, and turn search data into something the founder and clients can act on.
Compliance & vendor operations. Own data protection, candidate data hygiene, vendor onboarding and the operational admin that keeps a cross-border firm clean and credible.
