Otherwise, this role is remote. Position Summary Global Risk Solutions (GRS) leadership bench is one of its most important competitive assets. To support GRS needs, we are hiring an Executive Recruiter, who is a seasoned, full life-cycle executive recruiter and strategic talent partner responsible for the most senior and business-critical searches across the organization. Beyond delivering on active executive searches, this role serves as a continuous, market-facing presence for Liberty Mutual — building and sustaining a pipeline of executive relationships, generating competitive intelligence, and creating meaningful connections between GRS senior leaders and top talent across the insurance and other industries, independent of immediate hiring need. This individual brings an established personal network within the industry talent community, directs the full executive search process — including confidential outreach, assessment, offer strategy, and negotiation — and acts as an extension of the GRS leadership team's external network. This role is measured by the strength of GRS's external leadership network and the caliber of its executive hires, not by requisition throughput. This role also operates as a collaborative member of the broader Talent Acquisition team, helping build market-mapping and networking capability across the organization through coaching and knowledge-sharing.

Build and sustain an extensive personal network of passive and active senior-level candidates, industry contacts, and search partners, creating a “warm bench” of relationships ready to activate when needs arise. Continuously map the executive talent landscape across the insurance industry — tracking key players, movement, compensation trends, and organizational structures at competitor and adjacent companies — to inform targeted, discreet outreach ahead of business need. Create and facilitate exploratory conversations and introductions between GRS senior leaders and external executives, positioning Liberty Mutual as an employer of choice and a connected industry player. Serve as an ongoing brand ambassador for Liberty Mutual in the external executive market — representing the company at industry events, in professional networks, and in one-off conversations — independent of any active search.
