• Experience hiring leaders across multiple functions, including GTM, R&D, and G&A, or within mission-driven, highly sensitive environments.
• We move fast and own the outcome. Recruiters are expected to drive their searches forward, surface risks early, and proactively bring solutions rather than wait for direction.
• We operate as true partners to the business. We work closely with hiring managers and leaders to challenge assumptions, use data to inform decisions, and hold a high bar for the talent we bring into TRM.

• Within 72 hours of a new leadership search, you’ve aligned deeply with the hiring executive on the mandate, mapped the market, and identified 5–10 high-conviction leaders who sharpen our view of exceptional.
• Within the first 2 weeks, you’re actively engaging exceptional leadership talent and bringing real-time market intelligence on candidate motivations, compensation, and competitive dynamics back to the hiring team.
• Within your first 90 days, you’ve closed your first leadership hire and are already raising the bar on how TRM identifies, assesses, and wins exceptional leaders as we scale.
• If you’re interested in joining TRM, we encourage you to apply directly. Every application is reviewed by our Talent team.
• If you send your resume directly to someone at TRM, we can’t guarantee it will reach the appropriate hiring team. Applying directly is the best way to ensure your application will be considered.
