## About the role

The most important and most difficult part of building a successful company is assembling an exceptional team. In today's knife-fight market, talent density requires the same level of strategic focus and creativity as product development and go-to-market. As Talent Strategy Lead, you will work directly with our CEO to help make Forus one of the best companies in the world at identifying, attracting, and hiring extraordinary people.

## What they're looking for

- Have a track record of doing high-quality work in a demanding and talent-dense environment, whether as a founder, 0 -> 1 operator, investor, product manager, or in another high-performance role
- Exceptional judgment about people and evidence that you have identified, recruited, backed, hired, or chosen unusually strong people before others recognized them
- Strong written and verbal communication, including the ability to understand what motivates a specific person and communicate why Forus may be the right place for them
- Enough technical and analytical fluency to understand unfamiliar roles quickly, evaluate evidence critically, work effectively with data, and test new tools or approaches
- High agency and creativity — when the obvious channels do not produce the right people, you create different channels
- A track record of moving quickly, finding shortcuts, and going to unreasonable lengths to deliver on goals
