About the Role

Brio Group is seeking an Entry-Level Talent Scout to join our growing recruiting team. This is an ideal opportunity for someone who is early in their career and wants to build a strong foundation in executive recruiting, talent acquisition, sales, and business development.

No prior recruiting experience is required. We are looking for someone who is motivated, competitive, coachable, personable, and eager to learn. You will receive hands-on training and work directly alongside experienced recruiters supporting searches across the life sciences, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, medical device, and healthcare industries.

This role is designed to provide a clear path for career growth within Brio.

What You'll Do

• Identify and research qualified candidates for active searches
• Build candidate pipelines using LinkedIn, Bullhorn, and other recruiting tools
• Conduct outreach through phone, text, email, and LinkedIn
• Speak with candidates to learn about their experience, career goals, and interests
• Conduct initial candidate qualification and screening
• Maintain accurate candidate information and notes in Bullhorn
• Schedule interviews and coordinate communication between candidates and recruiters
• Support Executive Recruiters on Director, VP, and executive-level searches
• Conduct market research and talent mapping across the life sciences industry
• Build relationships with candidates and develop long-term talent networks
• Learn and apply recruiting strategies, sourcing techniques, and candidate engagement best practices
• Work toward individual and team performance goals

Who We're Looking For

This is an entry-level position, and we are open to candidates who are beginning their professional careers.

You may be a strong fit if you are:

• A recent college graduate or early-career professional (Bachelors degree required)
• Highly motivated and goal-oriented
• Comfortable talking to new people
• Confident, personable, and professional
• Competitive and driven by results
• Coachable and eager to develop new skills
• Organized and able to manage multiple priorities
• Persistent and comfortable with follow-up
• Curious about people, business, and career development
• Interested in building a career in recruiting, sales, or business development

Previous recruiting experience is not required. Experience in sales, customer service, hospitality, athletics, student organizations, or other people-focused environments can be valuable, but we primarily look for attitude, work ethic, communication skills, and a willingness to learn.

Training & Development

You will receive hands-on training in:

• Recruiting fundamentals
• Candidate sourcing and LinkedIn research
• Cold calling and candidate outreach
• Candidate screening
• Executive search

Career Growth

The Talent Scout position is the entry point into Brio's recruiting career path.

As you develop your recruiting skills and demonstrate strong performance, you will have the opportunity to take on more responsibility, manage more complex searches, develop candidate relationships, and progress toward an Executive Recruiter role.

We are looking for people who want to grow with Brio, not simply fill an entry-level position.

What Makes Brio Different

At Brio, you will have the opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment where you can see the full recruiting process from candidate sourcing to executive placement.

You'll work alongside experienced recruiters, gain exposure to senior leaders across the life sciences industry, and develop skills that can translate into long-term careers in executive search, recruiting, sales, and business development.
