Search Associate

We are seeking a high-motor, intellectually curious Search Associate to join High Country Search Group. This is a foundational, "force-multiplier" role where you will support three of our most dynamic and high-stakes practice areas: Private Equity, Corporate Affairs, and Engineering & Construction. You will act as a strategic partner to our leadership, serving as research and business development support.

Core Responsibilities: The "Phone-First" Professional

While this role offers a masterclass in professional and executive search, it requires a "street smart" professional who can quickly discern criteria for success, has high recall, and excellent follow-through.

• Direct Source Recruiting & Candidate Identification: You will be responsible for candidate identification and development. This includes developing target lists using the phone and online resources to identify and penetrate high-value talent pools.
• Top-of-Funnel Execution: You must be a "phone-first" professional, comfortable making calls when needed. This involves assertively navigating organizational structures to conduct preliminary recruitment screens for high-level roles.
• Market Intelligence & Analytics: You will help produce data-driven reports and compelling pitch decks tailored to specific RFPs. You will proactively identify and track industry trends to provide market data and analytics to our team.
• Search Strategy & Business Development: Actively participate in designing search and business development strategies with leadership, from initial pitch to final candidate placement.
• Database Management: Consistently input and update candidate records and proprietary databases, ensuring all research outcomes are meticulously recorded.

Who You Are

• Educated & Highly Ambitious: You hold an undergraduate degree from a well-regarded institution and have a desire to apply academic rigor to a fast-paced environment.
• Communication Powerhouse: Outstanding telephone skills are essential. You must demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication skills when drafting reports, executive summaries, or specifications.
• Grit & Resilience: You are "hungry" for experience and possess the resilience required to thrive in a high-rejection, high-reward, and often unstructured sales environment.
• Intellectually Curious: You have the ability to quickly learn industry and functional fundamentals and understand the criteria for success in complex organizations.
• Discretion & Poise: You will interface with senior executives and must protect the confidentiality of client and candidate information at all times.
• Money Motivated: You want a career path where hard and smart work result in higher earnings.

The Career Path: Choose Your Own Adventure

We do not believe in a one-size-fits-all career track. This role is a launchpad that, depending on performance, can evolve into:

• Executive Recruiter: Take full ownership of the search process and manage high-level placements.
• Business Development Lead: Focus exclusively on high-level territory expansion and client acquisition strategy.

Market Intelligence Manager: Lead the firm’s data strategy, industry tracking, and knowledge systems.

• Partner with consultants to define search strategies, target organizations, and candidate profiles
• Conduct detailed market mapping and talent identification within the life sciences sector
• Build target company lists and identify high-potential leadership candidates
  
  

• Conduct outreach and initial screening conversations with prospective candidates
• Build and maintain strong candidate pipelines
• Present candidate insights and recommendations to the consultant team
  
  

• Conduct competitive intelligence and industry research
• Identify emerging leaders, subject matter experts, and conference speakers
• Track talent movement and leadership trends within relevant sectors
  
  

• Support the full executive search lifecycle
• Participate in project kickoff meetings and progress updates
• Assist with the preparation of candidate reports, reference summaries, and search updates
• Maintain accurate candidate and client information within the firm’s CRM system
  
  

• 1-3 years of experience within executive search (researcher, research associate, or similar role)
• Strong research and analytical capabilities
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• High attention to detail and strong organizational ability
• Ability to synthesize large amounts of information and prioritize effectively
  
  

• Exposure to life sciences, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, or healthcare sectors
• Experience researching scientific or technical leadership roles
  
  

• Base salary: ~$90K – $125K depending on experience
• 401(k) with company match
• Healthcare: 100% company-paid
