Spokane – February 23, 2017 – SmartRecruiters Inc., the leading provider of recruiting solutions, today announced the opening of a new office in downtown Spokane, Washington. This addition will support SmartRecruiters’ rapidly growing business in North America, and its focus will be sales operations.
In Spokane, SmartRecruiters has all of the right ingredients to build out a great software sales operation – great talent, universities and affordability. “The growth that I have seen in Spokane in the last 21 years has been incredible,” says Bob Memmer, Senior Vice President of Commercial Sales at SmartRecruiters. “I would love to see Spokane become the next Austin or Nashville – both are thriving communities with a focus on technology, and neither grew up that way. With all of the young talent in the area from several universities, Spokane is ready to take a step forward in becoming more tech-savvy. This new SmartRecruiters office will open so many doors for the community and the company – it is a win-win for everyone.”
The new Spokane office is expected to open in March with about ten employees and will grow from there to support SmartRecruiters growth. The office will comprise a mix of software sales professionals, sales development representatives, renewals professionals, pre-sales engineers and marketing and professional services team members.
The expansion follows strong demand for SmartRecruiters’ Talent Acquisition Suite. Over the past two years, SmartRecruiters has acquired more than 700 customers, including VISA, Alcoa, Skechers, BIC and other well-known and successful companies.
SmartRecruiters has recently expanded its leadership team in Europe and announced the acquisition of Berlin-based data science startup Jobspotting. With offices across the globe and over 700 customers, SmartRecruiters is changing the talent acquisition industry with its focus on accelerating the replacement of legacy enterprise applicant tracking systems.
“We are very excited to expand our team once again and open a new office in Spokane,” said Jerome Ternynck, SmartRecruiters’ Founder and CEO. “SmartRecruiters is growing globally at a rapid rate and is eager and ready to meet the hiring needs of companies all over the world.”
