OpenLoop is looking for a
Senior Executive Recruiter to join our team remotely. In this role, you'll drive research, candidate identification, and early engagement for our most senior and executive-level searches - partnering closely with our recruiting team from intake through close. The role is primarily sourcing-focused today, with real room to grow into full executive recruiting responsibilities as you build a track record and trust with the team.
What You'll Do:- Lead the research and early outreach on senior and executive-level searches
- Map talent across our space, uncovering strong candidates in unexpected places - overlooked companies, direct competitors, adjacent industries
- Think beyond LinkedIn Recruiter - tapping into industry communities, warm networks, referrals, and other creative channels to find talent others miss
- Be the first voice a candidate hears from us - credible outreach and initial phone screens before handoff
- Maintain clean, accurate pipelines in Ashby so nothing falls through the cracks
- Help shape job specs, scorecards, and other search materials alongside our recruiters
- Bring market and comp insight to the table to sharpen sourcing strategy
- Share what you learn from each search to keep our playbook - and our talent database - growing
- Team up with recruiters, hiring managers, and partners across the business as each search calls for it
- Take on more full-cycle ownership of executive searches over time, as your scope grows with the role
- Other duties as assigned.
Who You Are:- 4+ years of sourcing or recruiting experience - no executive search firm background required, but you understand what it takes to earn a senior leader's attention
- A natural at engaging senior and C-level candidates: clear, confident, and fluent enough in our business strategy to make the case to talent who isn't actively looking
- Sharp instincts and sound judgment - you know which questions actually reveal fit, and you're not afraid to push back when something doesn't add up
- Curious and resourceful; every search looks different, and you genuinely enjoy the hunt for where to look next
- Discreet and trustworthy with confidential searches and sensitive information
- Self-motivated and organized, with a genuine desire to grow from sourcing into full-cycle executive recruiting
- Proficient with an ATS (we use Ashby) - you know how to use it to keep a search sharp, not just organized
Our BenefitsIn addition, for salaried positions you would also be eligible for:
- Medical, Dental, and Vision plans
- Flexible Spending/Health Savings Accounts
- Flexible PTO
- 401(k) + Company Match
- Life Insurance, Pet insurance, and more
