• Build Talent Pipelines: Support the full top-of-funnel recruiting process, from building target lists and sourcing strategies to initial outreach and engagement tracking.
• Act as a Talent Scout: Assess alignment to our values and the unique needs of each portfolio company through candidate research and conversations.
• Conduct Market Research: Analyze talent markets and functional landscapes to inform sourcing strategy, competitive intelligence, and workforce planning.
• Leverage Tools & Systems: Maintain data accuracy within recruiting systems and tools, ensuring visibility across the team and quality candidate tracking.
• Collaborate Across Functions: Work closely with hiring managers, recruiters, and operators to understand role needs, share insights, and iterate on approach.
• Develop a Strong Talent Pitch: Build the core skills needed to effectively position ST6 portfolio companies to prospective candidates—refining your storytelling, influence, and value-based selling to attract mission-aligned, high-impact talent.

• How to deliver outcomes in a performance-driven culture.
• How to communicate with credibility and confidence across stakeholders.

 

What We’re Looking For

• A self-starter with strong curiosity and a hunger to learn.
• Someone who thrives in a “gym culture” - you like feedback, continuous improvement, and putting in reps.
• Deep interest in talent, recruiting, and how great teams get built.
• Excellent attention to detail, project management, and follow-through.
• Strong research capabilities - able to map markets, analyze patterns, and develop insights
• Collaborative and low-ego approach to team success
