We were founded on the belief that doing good is the pathway to doing well. Our success is a by-product of doing the right thing—treating people right, listening to new ideas, and keeping culture at the heart of our business. At True, building your own brand and shaping your professional journey isn't just an option, it's an expectation.

About the Role

The Executive Search Associate will act as a key team member working alongside Partners & Principals in search execution. Over the course of a search, an effective Associate conducts research, builds target company lists, sources and screens candidates, and manages the majority of data entry into our database. An Associate on the pathway to Senior Associate should own the entire candidate pipeline, the majority of candidate relationships and have more ownership on key search related activities with less Partner oversight.

Key Responsibilities

  • Work closely with a Partner and/or Principal and serve as a key strategic resource to the search team including but not limited to new candidate & company research, candidate pipeline development, candidate engagement and overall project management for each assigned search.
  • At the outset of a search, ensure completion of job description, target company list and market map.
  • Conduct detailed research projects to map candidates & companies from relevant industries.
  • In partnership with your Partner or Principal, be responsible for sourcing, screening & reviewing a significant portion of all candidates for each assigned search.
  • Work effectively with the Engagement Administrator on scheduling of candidate interactions and consistently engage with the Partner throughout the search.
  • Prepare for client update calls by creating a clear agenda with discussion topics and ensuring each search instance of our database is updated and error-free.
  • During every client update call, transcribe notes detailing company updates, candidate updates and client suggestions.
  • Outside of each assigned search, consistently discover & add qualified candidates outside of our network to our database.

Requirements

  • Organised and able to manage multiple projects with weekly results.
  • Ability to easily build rapport through strong verbal communication.
  • Altruistic and willingness to put others before yourself.
  • Desire to help foster and preserve a company culture where all are encouraged, included, and find success.
  • Inquisitive with a desire to learn.
  • Able to think quickly on your feet.
  • Self-motivated with the ability to work independently.
  • Excellent work ethic and the desire to advance your career.

Preferred Experience

Professional experience in an externally facing client management consulting role (change management, human capital, executive search, etc). Proven track record of managing numerous projects and competing demands with tight deadlines and daily/weekly deliverables.

Salary: $75,000 - $95,000

We are an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to cultivating a culture where all are welcomed, included, and given opportunity. We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform crucial job functions, and to receive other benefits and privileges of employment.
