Senior Talent Acquisition Consultant

We're looking for a Talent Acquisition Consultant to join the team. This is not a transactional recruiting role. Our clients come to us for judgment, not just resumes, and we need someone who can deliver both.

You'll own searches end-to-end: understanding the brief, mapping the market, engaging candidates, managing the process, and advising clients along the way. You'll need to be comfortable in a fast paced environment, creative without losing rigor, and confident enough to push back when the brief needs refining.

If you love the puzzle of finding someone who doesn't know they're the perfect fit yet, this role is for you.

What You'll Do Own full-cycle search execution across commercial biotech/biopharma mandates 0 from kickoff through offer

Develop deep market knowledge across therapeutic areas, company landscapes, and commercial functional roles

Source creatively beyond LinkedIn - building relationships, leveraging networks, and finding candidates others miss

Engage candidates with authenticity and intelligence; understand what motivates them, not just what's on their resume

Partner closely with clients to understand organizational culture, team dynamics, and the unspoken requirements behind every brief

Manage multiple searches simultaneously

Contribute to Algernon's reputation by representing the firm with professionalism and genuine warmth

What We're Looking For Based in the Boston area

3+ years of recruiting or talent acquisition experience, with meaningful exposure to the biotech or biopharma industry

Commercial life sciences experience strongly preferred

A natural curiosity about people and organizations; you ask good questions and actively listen

A problem-solver's mindset

High attention to nuance: culture fit, organizational readiness, candidate motivations, client dynamics

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

Comfort with ambiguity and a genuine love of a fast-paced environment
