Job Description
Principal Executive Recruiter at ServiceTitan leading executive searches for VP and SVP roles. Collaborating with C-suite to build a pipeline of executive talent in software for the trades industry.
Responsibilities:
- Own the Executive Search Function.
- Lead full-cycle executive searches for VP, SVP, and proactive roles globally, from intake through offer close and onboarding handoff.
- Serve as the primary point of contact and strategic advisor to C-suite hiring managers throughout each search.
- Design and execute bespoke search strategies for each role - including market mapping, target company lists, outreach sequencing, and candidate positioning.
- Manage a small portfolio of concurrent confidential searches with rigorous discretion and timeline discipline.
- Build trusted relationships with the CPO, CFO, CTPO, General Counsel, and other functional heads to deeply understand their organizational needs and long-term talent vision.
- Present candidate slates, market benchmarks, and competitive intelligence in polished, executive-ready formats.
- Advise stakeholders on organizational design, leveling, and talent availability when headcount plans are being built - not just filled.
- Influence offer strategy, compensation structure, and negotiation posture for critical executive hires.
- Maintain a living talent map of executive-level talent across key functions and geographies - including competitors, adjacent industries, and passive candidates in long-term relationships.
- Cultivate a proprietary network of executives who trust ServiceTitan as a destination employer, even before a role is open.
- Develop and deliver regular executive talent market reports covering compensation trends, supply/demand dynamics, and competitor moves.
- Track and report executive search metrics - time-to-fill, offer acceptance rate, diversity of slate, and source of hire - to the Head of TA and People leadership.
- Partner with Total Rewards and Finance on exec-level compensation benchmarking and equity modeling for offer scenarios.
- Serve as a brand ambassador to high-caliber executive talent, delivering a world-class candidate experience that reflects ServiceTitan's culture and ambition.
- Partner with Communications and Marketing on executive employer branding narratives for target markets.
- Represent ServiceTitan at executive-level industry events, forums, and networks to build brand credibility with senior leaders.
Requirements:
- 10+ years of experience, with 5+ years placing successful VP+ level leaders at high-growth technology companies - in-house, retained search firm, or both.
- Demonstrated ability to run confidential, complex searches with senior-level discretion and stakeholder management acuity.
- Expert-level command of executive sourcing strategies - direct outreach, network mapping, research methodologies, and LinkedIn Recruiter/Gem/similar tools.
- Experience advising C-suite stakeholders as a trusted thought partner, not just a transactional recruiter.
- Deep fluency in executive compensation structures, including equity programs and long-term incentive design at growth-stage and pre/post-IPO companies.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills - you write compelling outreach, give tight executive presentations, and know when to speak and when to listen.
- Strong command of executive search metrics and the ability to use data to drive decisions and report to leadership.
Benefits:
- Flexible time off with ample learning and development opportunities to continue growing your career.
- Comprehensive onboarding program, leadership training for Titans at all levels, and other programs and events.
- Great work is rewarded through Bonusly, peer-nominated awards, and more.
- Company-paid medical, dental, and vision (with 100% employer paid options and 90% coverage for dependents), FSA and HSA, 401k match, and telehealth options including memberships to One Medical.
- Parental leave and support, up to $20k in fertility services (i.e. IUI and IVF), surrogacy, and adoption reimbursement, on demand maternity support through Maven Maternity, free breast milk shipping through Maven Milk, pet insurance, legal advisory services, financial planning tools, and more.
