Principal GTM Recruiter
WFA Digital Insight
Talentful’s Principal GTM Recruiter sits at the intersection of talent strategy and go‑to‑market execution. Unlike a generic recruiter, this role demands deep familiarity with GTM hiring cycles, from sales and marketing to customer success, and the ability to translate those needs into data‑rich sourcing plans using Excel. The position is embedded with a single client at a time, allowing you to absorb the company's culture and product nuances—a rare depth of immersion that many agencies lack. Expect to partner directly with senior stakeholders, shaping how they view talent as a competitive lever rather than a cost center. Candidates who can demonstrate both a proven GTM track record and strong analytical sourcing skills will feel most at home.
