This position is an opportunity to make a significant impact in attracting and securing the best talent in the industry and will play an instrumental role in our current (and future) growth.

Were looking for a recruiting leader who will not only be a hands-on, full-cycle recruiter but who will also focus on big picture strategy as we continue to grow and expand into new markets in the visualization industry. Your reqs will include top artistic, technical, and specialty talent.
