Talent Partner

Who you are

• 1-3 years of experience in recruiting, sourcing, agency recruiting, sales/SDR, or another role where you had to hunt, persuade, and hit a number
• An exceptional sourcer who loves sourcing. Finding the right person for a hard role is a puzzle you can't put down, and you find real value in matching a business need to the right skill set
• You love a negotiation. You enjoy understanding what matters to each side and getting to a yes
• Exceptionally polished. You communicate with clarity, confidence, and professionalism with candidates and leaders alike
• Exceptional organization and attention to detail. You keep your pipeline clean, your updates timely, and every candidate moving
• Exceptionally competitive. You want to be the best, and you will do whatever it takes to get there. You measure yourself against the best on the team and the best in the industry, and you keep raising your own bar
• An exceptional work ethic and high intensity. You are the hardest worker in the room, you move fast, and you bring a sense of urgency every day
• Extremely coachable. You ask for feedback, take it in, and show up better the next time. When you don't know how to do something, you keep at it until you've mastered it
• Curiosity about the business. You want to understand how teams work, how the company makes money, and why a role matters
• A service-oriented mindset and high ownership. You take pride in making hiring managers and candidates successful, follow through without reminders, and raise problems early
• A high bar for yourself and the people around you. You notice when something can be better and you make it better

What the job involves

• Ivo is growing very aggressively, and hiring is at the center of that growth
• Our Talent team is early, and we are building it to be the best in the industry
• As a Junior Talent Partner, you will be a partner to the business: accountable for helping our leaders make the best hiring decisions possible, carrying the vision and goals of our leadership team into every search, and bringing back what only you can see from the market
• Every Talent Partner at Ivo plays two roles: protecting the hiring bar, and guiding the process while advocating for the candidate
• This role is built for someone early in their career who loves sourcing, is exceptionally competitive, works harder than everyone around them, and wants to be the best at everything they do
• You will do whatever it takes to be the best
• You bring a high level of intensity every day, you want to be coached hard, and you will keep pushing until you have mastered this craft
• You'll earn your seat at the table through sourcing and grow into owning full searches from intake to close
• Source exceptional talent: Build pipeline for GTM and technical roles. Map markets, find the people others miss, write outreach that gets replies, and test new channels until you find the talent. The harder the search, the harder you push
• Match business needs to skill sets: Show up to every intake prepared, get to what the business actually needs and why the hire matters, and match that need to the people and skill sets that will deliver it
• Partner with the business: Act as a trusted advisor to hiring managers and leaders. Apply leadership's standards to every search, report back what you see in the market (a comp band that's off, a role that's mis-scoped, a sourcing gap), and bring the data to the honest conversation when something needs to change
• Protect the hiring bar: Screen thoroughly and pressure test candidates against what they'll actually be held to on the job. Dig in when something doesn't add up, assess consistently, document the reasoning behind every call, and calibrate continuously so every outcome sharpens the profile and strengthens your sourcing
• Guide the process and advocate for the candidate: Own every step of the process. Make risks, concerns, opportunities, and upside visible so hiring managers make fully informed decisions they can confidently defend to leadership. Run a tight process, because speed is a form of respect to candidates and the business, and protect every candidate's time and dignity
• Close and negotiate: Understand what matters to each candidate, build conviction, and close them with confidence through offer and negotiation
• Deliver an exceptional candidate experience: Every candidate should know where they stand, what comes next, and when they will hear from you. Move fast, prepare candidates well, communicate clearly at every stage, and make sure every candidate feels respected and well informed, regardless of the outcome
• Keep a clean, up-to-date pipeline: Ashby is our source of truth. Every candidate on your roles is in the right stage, every note and status is current, and every next step is clear, so hiring managers and leadership always have an accurate view of your searches
• Stay on top of your roles: Stay up to date on every search you own, your hiring managers' priorities, and the talent market, and keep your hiring teams informed with regular, proactive updates
• Represent Ivo with polish: You are often the first person a candidate meets. Every conversation should be polished and professional, and every candidate should walk away thinking Ivo is an amazing company. Help run recruiting events and build relationships that turn into future hires
