About the Role

We’re looking for a Talent, Strategic Projects Associate to build systems from zero to one and take on some of recruiting’s biggest, most ambiguous bets. You’ll work alongside teammates to understand how they work, uncover problems, and identify practical solutions. From sourcing and candidate engagement to interview coordination and approvals, you’ll define the problem, ship the smallest testable version, and turn what works into a repeatable program with a clear owner before moving to the next challenge.
