I’m Jennifer Pesce — a talent leader who still loves the desk.
I am tech-raised, agency-honed, corporate-seasoned, and startup-obsessed. I’ve led teams, built functions, managed budgets, implemented systems, and advised executives—but I’m not removed from execution. I’m still in the trenches doing the work: sourcing, screening, closing, and delivering hires at scale against aggressive targets.
I work like a Head of Talent, Chief of Staff, and hands-on Recruiter in one. I stack the strategy, then I get in the trenches and build.
15+ years. Builder and operator. Startup speed. Enterprise discipline.

"Beyond Jennifer’s technical knowledge, she is a natural leader and collaborator. She has an exceptional ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and inspire those around her to embrace change and innovation. Jennifer’s positive attitude and dedication to excellence have made a lasting impact on our team and the broader organization."
- Tiffaney Perhala, Sr. Director Production Recruiting at Arthur J Gallagher
"Jennifer recruited key positions for my safety and environmental department and performed superbly. Jennifer has a keen ability for asking the right questions, understanding exactly what you need, and translating that into actionable plans for sourcing top talent. She's an incredible thought partner with a bias for results!"
- Michael Belcher, Global Safety at The Boys and Girls Club
“Jennifer is amazing. She developed a talented and driven team that was very customer-centric, while personally sourcing difficult executive positions. She is gifted at identifying talent that not only has the experience we were looking for, but also the “soft skills”, the attitude, drive and emotional intelligence that allowed the candidates to not only succeed but excel in their positions. I cannot recommend Jennifer more strongly. I enjoyed working with her and hope I have the opportunity to do so again in the future."
- Mark Hudgins, Fleet Director at Beckman Coulter Diagnostics
"I don't know that I've ever worked with someone quite as dedicated as Jennifer is. She leads through guidance and understanding, she takes initiative and executes in her role with ambition and she applies just the right amount of pressure to herself and her team making every attempt possible to achieve excellence in what she does. If you find yourself in a position to work with, for, or alongside Jennifer, count yourself as lucky."
