Job Description

Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America’s boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country’s biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society.

As Senior Recruiter, you will lead the recruitment for a portfolio of roles with our Executive and Strategic Recruitment capability. This role will operate in both a split-desk and full-desk model (role dependent): you will source, screen, and pipeline top-tier talent with a focus on quality of hire, speed, and a white-glove candidate experience for our priority talent needs.

You will apprentice with talent acquisition leaders and colleagues to build knowledge of the Stand Together community, our organizational priorities, ideal candidate profiles, and recruitment strategies. As a member of the Strategic Recruitment team, you will play a pivotal role in building and supporting teams and capabilities that are driving long-term, transformational change to drive progress on some of our country's most pressing problems.

How You Will Contribute

  • Build talent pipelines using LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, social media, and internal databases to find and attract active and passive candidates for nuanced, hard-to-fill roles
  • Manage multiple concurrent searches, prioritizing roles and candidates based on impact
  • Conduct initial phone screens using behavioral and skillset-based questions to evaluate knowledge, skills, and values alignment
  • Lead with a high-touch communication approach that will guide candidates through the interview process, prepare them for interviews, and manage ongoing expectations
  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date documentation and candidate notes on all candidates, searches, and recruiting activity in Lever (ATS)
  • Partner with the Strategic Recruitment leadership team to align on candidate feedback and role requirements, while sharing market insights to inform candidate recommendations and recruitment approaches
  • Build and maintain a working understanding of Stand Together’s strategies and goals to effectively match talent to the right opportunities

What You Will Bring

  • Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect.
  • 6+ years of candidate-centric recruiting experience in executive search and C-suite talent.
  • Proficiency with modern applicant tracking systems (ATS), customer relationship management (CRM) tools, and sourcing platforms like LinkedIn Talent Solutions.
  • High level of humility and integrity.
  • Proactive, entrepreneurial, and a high sense of urgency.
  • Exceptional communication skills, interpersonal skills, professionalism, and ability to work collaboratively with multiple stakeholders with a high degree of discretion and confidentiality.

What We Offer

  • Competitive benefits: Enjoy a 6% 401(k) match with immediate vesting, flexible time off, comprehensive health and dental plans, plus wellness and mental health support through Peloton and Talkspace.
  • A meaningful career: Join a passionate community of over 1,300 employees dedicated to improving lives and driving innovative solutions to complex social challenges.
  • Commitment to growth: Thrive in a non-hierarchical environment that empowers employees to discover, develop and apply their unique talents.
  • Competitive compensation: Our approach rewards the value you create through competitive salaries and bonus opportunities, allowing you to share in the success you help drive.
