Proactive Talent doesn’t hire individuals to be middle managers. Anyone who leads a team here has a primary role in doing the work they were hired for and a secondary role in ensuring that those on their team are able to work productively by giving them the tools they need to be successful. This means that we rely on everyone at Proactive Talent to do a lot of self-management.
This means rolling up your sleeves and getting things done. Our team is full of self-starters who are capable of setting their own direction when one isn’t given by determining what needs to be done, doing the work, and not waiting around for someone to tell them what to do. This means being autonomous and spending your time well. There is always more work to be done and things to Kaizen.
We believe in autonomy and doing what you love at Proactive Talent. We believe that you should be able to chart your own course, wherever that may lead. We want to support you in your personal and professional growth and development. We also want to make sure that your professional endeavors outside of Proactive Talent do not create conflicts of interest or affect your time, dedication, or performance at work. So, when it comes to moonlighting*, we must maintain a delicate balance, and Proactive Talent must always get priority.
