About Progressive Dental Marketing

Progressive Dental Marketing helps high-performing dental practices scale through industry-leading marketing, sales training, events, and technology. As we expand our marketing services, SaaS platform, and national events portfolio, we’re building a world-class internal team to support that growth.

We are looking for a Talent Acquisition Lead to own and scale our hiring engine. This is not a transactional recruiter role. This is a strategic, embedded partner to leadership who will help us build teams across Marketing, Sales, Product, Engineering, Operations, and Events.

The Role

You will be responsible for end-to-end recruiting across the organization, including:

• Marketing & Creative
• Sales & Revenue Operations
• SaaS / Product / Engineering
• Operations, Finance, and Leadership
• Events & Production Teams

You will partner closely with department heads to forecast hiring needs, define roles, attract top-tier talent, and continuously raise the talent bar at Progressive Dental.

Key Responsibilities

Talent Strategy & Workforce Planning

• Partner with leadership to forecast hiring needs tied to growth plans, product launches, and event expansion.
• Help define org structure, role scopes, and leveling frameworks.
• Advise leadership on market compensation, role design, and hiring strategy.
• Recruit across a wide range of roles: marketing, paid media, creative, sales, operations, tech, and leadership.

Sourcing & Talent Pipeline

• Build proactive talent pipelines using LinkedIn, referrals, communities, and outbound sourcing.
• Develop and maintain bench strength for critical roles.
• Create a repeatable sourcing engine rather than reactive hiring.

Hiring Process & Quality Bar

• Design and run structured interview processes.
• Train hiring managers on interviewing and selection.
• Ensure consistent evaluation standards and high hiring quality.

Employer Brand & Candidate Experience

• Help position Progressive Dental as a destination workplace.
• Create strong candidate experiences from first touch to offer.
• Partner with marketing to improve careers page, job postings, and employer branding.

Systems & Process

• Build scorecards, interview templates, and hiring playbooks.
• Track metrics: time-to-fill, quality of hire, source performance, offer acceptance rate.

What Success Looks Like

• Hiring is predictable, fast, and high quality
• Leadership trusts recruiting as a strategic function, not a bottleneck
• You’ve built deep pipelines for key recurring roles (PPC, SEO, AMs, Sales, Product, Tech, Events)
• Time-to-fill is down, quality-of-hire is up
• Progressive Dental has a strong reputation in the market as a great place to work

Experience

• 3–7+ years in internal recruiting or talent acquisition (agency + in-house is great)
• Experience hiring across marketing, sales, and/or tech roles
• Comfortable recruiting both individual contributors and leaders
• Highly organized and process-driven
• Strong stakeholder management and executive communication skills
• Data-driven, but also high-EQ and brand-minded
• Startup / scale-up or high-growth company experience preferred

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience in SaaS, marketing agencies, or fast-growing services companies
• Experience building recruiting processes from scratch or scaling them
• Familiarity with ATS systems, structured interviews, and hiring scorecards
