Build a Career in Executive Search

WilliamCharles Executive Search is looking for an Executive Search Associate to join our Grand Rapids team.

This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career who is interested in recruiting, sales, research, or relationship development and wants to learn the executive search business from an experienced team.

You'll work directly with recruiters and firm leadership while gaining exposure to both sides of our business: identifying and engaging talented professionals and supporting the business development efforts that lead to new client relationships.

This isn't a traditional administrative or scheduling role.

Coordination is part of the job, but we're looking for someone who enjoys connecting with people, is curious about business, isn't afraid to pick up the phone, and wants to take on more responsibility as they grow.

You'll support both the recruiting and business development sides of WilliamCharles, giving you exposure to how an executive search firm finds talent, develops relationships, and grows its business.

• Identify and engage prospective candidates through LinkedIn, email, and phone
• Generate interest in career opportunities and connect qualified candidates with our recruiting team
• Coordinate candidate conversations and client interviews while maintaining communication throughout the process
• Research talent markets and take on greater recruiting responsibility as you develop
