Your Mission
Establish Pie as the preeminent commercial insurance among small business owners by building a best-in-class recruiting team that will produce top talent and grow our organization. You’ll be joining Pie at an exciting time as we were recently named to DC Inno’s 50 on Fire.
How You’ll Do It
Pie believes in the power of human potential. Hiring amazing talent is core to our ability to serve the small business community. As our Director of Talent Acquisition, you will have a direct and enormous impact on Pie’s ability to scale our business by recruiting exceptional fellow Pie-oneers. Who we recruit influences who becomes a Pie-oneer and, ultimately, the experience we deliver for our customers.

Pie's recruiting process is collaborative. Your hiring leaders are incredibly focused on finding the best person for the role and for the team. This position enables Pie to increase the speed in which we are able to respond to business demand. And, this increased speed will be done through the understanding and establishment of a best-in-class recruiting process.
