PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Adam Morris, founder and CEO of SalesFirst Recruiting, is excited to introduce Jeff Barker as the company's new Vice President. Barker was promoted from his position as Director of Sales & Recruiting to assume his fresh role on October 1st.
Barker's move to Vice President comes on the heels of SalesFirst Recruiting's October release of its new subscription service model – TalentNet. In addition to Barker's invaluable dedication to SalesFirst Recruiting's mission, the new subscription model has garnered substantial attention from growing enterprises, and highlighted the company's need for another senior leader.
As Vice President, Barker moves into a more holistic leadership position. As Director, Barker worked closely with Morris to execute company strategies. Now, Barker has full ownership of the traditional search team in Portland, which allows Morris to focus on further developing TalentNet.
"Our business is people; our clients are people; and our product is people, so it makes perfect sense that Jeff Barker would step up to a Vice President role as someone who relates so well to others," shared Morris. "He's a conscientious listener and a fearless leader. I loved his contributions as our Director, and I know I can expect great things from him as Vice President."
Barker has worked at SalesFirst Recruiting since 2014 when he signed on as a Recruiter and Account Executive. He quickly earned promotions, excelling as a Senior Account Executive before entering his position as Director. Prior to entering the recruiting field, Barker worked as a teacher and coach. Throughout his time with the company, his diverse background has been evident in his ability to find, train, and develop new talent.
"I've found that a big part of any job is teaching - whether I'm giving clients advice on the best practices to use when onboarding a new employee, helping a candidate realize their potential, or training a new team member. Now, As Vice President with full P&L of the search team, I get to do more than teach; I get to choose what to teach, and choose which paths we take forward," said Barker.
