- 8+ years of full cycle recruiting experience, with a heavy emphasis on scaling corporate functions (e.g. Marketing, Government & Affairs, HR, Finance, Legal , etc.) within the technology sector
- Proven track record of partnering directly with Director-level business leaders to provide high quality hiring strategies for corporate infrastructure
- Significant experience navigating the scaling challenges of a high growth, high stakes environment where regulatory and financial precision is paramount
