Associate Recruiter

Our boutique consulting firm, Sandbox, is a unique associate-led, partner-backed business practice with a track record and passion for helping venture-backed and venture-minded companies launch, grow, and monetize their businesses. Our clients benefit from our team's versatile expertise and diverse experience to guide them through periods of transformation and growth.

Our employees affectionately referred to as Sandboxers are a collection of repeat entrepreneurs, recovering corporates, reformed management consultants, and rogue college grads who believe in a creative approach to traditional consulting. What makes us great? Our sandbox is full of richly diverse skills, talents, thoughts, lifestyles, and experiences AND we all share a love for getting our hands dirty and doing what it takes to help our clients achieve their business goals.

As our client roster grows, so does our need for team members who are passionate about people and driven by curiosity. We're looking for an Associate Recruiter who is a relationship builder, storyteller, and creative problem-solver and eager to grow their career in recruiting and client services.

As part of our Recruiting team, you'll help connect talented candidates with companies on the cusp of growth. This role blends the art of recruiting with the fast-paced, ever-evolving world of our clients. On any given day, week, or month you will be :

  • Owning candidate sourcing and engagement across multiple client searches.
  • Crafting job postings that reflect each client's voice and attract the right talent.
  • Building and maintaining candidate pipelines to support both active and future searches.
  • Managing job postings, tracking applicants, and maintaining accurate candidate data in our applicant tracking system.
  • Participating in client meetings and calls to share updates, gather feedback, and align on search strategy.
  • Conducting phone screens and initial candidate interviews to assess alignment with client roles, skills, and company culture.
  • Supporting interview coordination and candidate communication throughout the hiring process to ensure a smooth and positive experience.
  • Collaborating closely with the Recruiting team on search strategy, candidate outreach, and market research.
  • Contributing to the development of recruiting collateral, surveys, and other resources that enhance the candidate experience.
  • Representing Sandbox at community and networking events to strengthen our employer brand and talent network.
  • Pitching in on other recruiting projects as needed - because that's the Sandbox way!

We are excited about you because

  • You have 23 years of experience in recruiting, HR, or a related field.
  • You're a strong communicator who loves connecting with people.
  • You have a keen eye for organization, with comfort juggling multiple searches and priorities.
  • You're familiar with LinkedIn Recruiter, applicant tracking systems, and other sourcing tools.
  • You're proficient in Google Suite (Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Slides).
  • You enjoy learning on the fly and applying new skills, even before they're "perfect."
  • You're proactive, curious, and unafraid to ask questions when something's unclear.
  • Bonus points if you have exposure to startups, consulting, or client-facing work!
  • You will love playing in the Sandbox if our core values resonate with you :

  • Curiosity | Be insatiably Curious. Sandboxers demonstrate a relentless appetite for the pursuit of understanding - we never settle for surface-level knowledge but strive to dive deeper, uncover insights, and explore new possibilities.
  • Scrappy & Nimble | Startuper's understand and speak Founder. Sandboxers are resourceful, creative, and resilient professionals who possess an entrepreneurial spirit, understand how to do more with less, and have a bias for action when it comes to solving startups' greatest challenges.
  • Growth | Growth is universal. Sandboxers fail forward through experimentation, innovation, and calculated risk-taking to challenge ourselves, push the boundaries, and constantly evolve to meet the ever-changing needs of our team, our clients, and our communities.
  • Welcoming & Authentic | Come as you are, we choose you! Sandboxers celebrate and value our employees' and clients' authentic selves to build strong foundations of trust, foster diversity, and create vibrant and inclusive relationships.
  • Reasons it pays to work at Sandbox (in addition to the pay itself) :

  • Comprehensive health benefits with employer contribution. It pays to keep your employees healthy.
  • Family-friendly, flexible work schedule with generous PTO and mental wellness days. Work-life integration is a thing and we are here to support.
  • Employer-matched 401K. No time delays & no vesting schedules. Enroll and keep all money on day one.
  • Ongoing professional development and networking opportunities.
  • Monthly team events - we sure know how to host a happy hour and we are never too busy to break for a volunteer opportunity.
  • Bragging rights that you are part of something BIG.
  • Most importantly, you get to go to sleep each night knowing you are helping savvy, driven entrepreneurs achieve their goals - how awesome is that??
  • Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every. single. qualification. At Sandbox, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and just workplace, so if you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with 100% of the qualifications listed, we encourage you to still apply. Our hiring philosophy looks to weed people INTO our process, not weed them out! Who knows, you may be just the right candidate for a future role inside or outside of the Sandbox. Just go for it... submit your resume!

    At Sandbox, we believe in transparency and fairness in compensation, which aligns with our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility. We are dedicated to providing all potential candidates with information about our salary ranges for each position to ensure that everyone, regardless of background or identity, has a clear understanding of what they can expect in terms of compensation. It is important to note that these salary ranges are based on a variety of considerations, including the candidate's experience, geographic location, and market demand. We feel that taking these factors into account ensures that our compensation practices are equitable and competitive. Sandbox believes that open communication about pay not only promotes fairness but also empowers employees to make informed decisions, contributes to closing wage gaps, and fosters a culture of trust within our organization.
