candidate sourcingscreeningpipeline management
Responsible for sourcing and early screening of candidates for executive searches across portfolio companies.
О компании
- is a Boston-based growth equity firm with more than $2.5 billion in assets under management. The firm leads minority capital raises, typically at Series A and B, investing $15–70M in founder-owned, capital-efficient B2B technology companies with $5M+ in revenue. Because Volition invests minority capital, founders retain majority ownership and control — the firm's role is to be a genuinely useful partner, not a typical control investor. About half of the portfolio is bootstrapped founders, which means the team spends significant time earning trust well before any capital event ever happens.
Обязанности
- Volition's talent function runs executive searches across roughly 40 portfolio companies. This role exists to give that function the sourcing and early-screening capacity it needs to keep pace — someone who can take a search from an open role to a qualified slate of candidates ready for a senior-level conversation.
- The person in this seat is accountable for the front half of the search process: building candidate lists, conducting outreach, running initial screens, and keeping the pipeline organized and current so that senior interviewers only see candidates worth their time.
- This is a junior seat with real responsibility attached — candidates will experience Volition's talent brand through this person first, often before anyone more senior gets involved. It reports directly to Chris Fahey, and works in close, day-to-day partnership with the Senior Manager, Talent on live searches.
- The right person is organized, dependable, and genuinely curious about how a structured executive search comes together — someone looking to build real search skill inside a small, high-trust team rather than run a high volume of low-stakes reqs.
Требования
- ● 2+ years of recruiting experience, agency or in-house.
- ● Manages high-volume outreach and follow-up without dropping details.
- ● Detail-oriented — pipeline hygiene and scheduling accuracy are non-negotiable, not afterthoughts.
- ● Comfortable in a fast-paced, metrics-driven environment; treats pipeline throughput and candidate quality as personal accountability.
- ● Proactively flags status and pipeline health to stakeholders without being asked.
- ● Clear, professional communicator — with candidates and senior stakeholders alike.
- ● Eager to learn a structured, senior-level hiring methodology and grow into more responsibility.
Условия
- ● A ground-floor seat learning executive search inside a structured, disciplined program — not a high-volume agency mill.
- ● Direct mentorship from Volition's talent leadership on live, senior-level searches.
- ● A clear growth path toward more senior recruiting responsibility as the function scales.
- ● Exposure to a growth-stage investment firm and its portfolio of roughly 40 companies.
