- Compile the weekly pipeline report and maintain the silver-medalist/bench tracker.
- Maintain a complete, well-organized search record and close-out file for every search.
- Contribute during intakes and debriefs by asking clarifying questions and flagging gaps, while leaving sourcing, assessment, and closing decisions to the recruiter, and scheduling/logistics to the coordinator.
Requirements

- Strong writing skills with a track record of turning rough notes or verbal input into clear, polished, professional documents quickly.
