Dan Finnigan
Chief Executive Officer

Dan Finnigan is Jobvite’s fearless leader, bringing over twenty-five years of experience launching and growing high-powered internet businesses. But Dan wasn’t always an executive. In his college days, he played drums in a rock band, and after college, he worked a number of years as a newspaper reporter. These jobs required a healthy balance of creativity, autonomy, and networking skill. As Dan continued his post-graduate career, with companies such as Yahoo and Knight Ridder, he never forgot the importance of those elements.

Today, Dan works to ensure that Jobvite’s technology helps enterprises source dedicated, high-quality talent, while also assisting job seekers in finding meaningful work. He excels at leading by example, and he continues to drive innovation in everything we do.

“We are changing how companies build great teams and how people build their careers,” says Dan. “Jobvite solutions make a real difference in employee happiness and satisfaction—and they make it easier for businesses to attract candidates looking for greater balance.”

Tim Lambert
Chief Revenue Officer

Tim Lambert held quite a few jobs as a kid—including a stint in high school boxing guitars for Fender.

Today, several decades later, Tim has cultivated that passion into a career as a leader in executive sales management and business development.

With over 20 years of experience in the industry, Tim has proven himself as a results-oriented expert in building and managing teams that drive enterprise growth. He has a knack for listening to and understanding customer needs, and then crafting development deals that produce optimal outcomes for everyone involved.

Matt Singer
Vice President, Marketing

Matt Singer is Jobvite’s fearless marketing leader. He’s officially been in marketing and sales for the past 15 years, but informally for 30+ years starting with cookie, lemonade, and lawn mowing businesses in his neighborhood at the age of 8. Outside of work, Matt is a proud husband, father, and “manphibian.” He tries to spend as much time as possible in the water abalone diving, fishing, and surfing.

A self-proclaimed data geek, Matt has spent his career channeling that data obsession into building great brands and scalable marketing machines. His career in B2B has focused primarily on the world of HR software, but recruiting is his biggest professional passion.

“Like it or not, we spend most of our lives at work. So coming up with innovative ways to help companies find the right talent and jobseekers find the right company is something I’m incredibly passionate about,” Matt says. “This is the most transformative time in the labor market since the dawn of industrialization. Access to information, retiring baby-boomers, increasing demand for skilled labor, and decreasing employee tenure requires constant innovation."

"With employees changing jobs every couple years, you have to have the most innovative products in recruiting, and Jobvite has been building those products since its inception.”

Matt McLaughlin
Vice President, Mid-Market & Enterprise Sales

As Vice President of Mid-Market & Enterprise Sales, Matt McLaughlin is determined to help Jobvite conquer the world (or at least the world of recruiting). He has over 20 years of experience selling well-established products / categories as well as pioneering brand new technologies at the enterprise level. During his tenure working in global and worldwide sales, he lived in the Asia-Pacific region for three years and has also spent an extended amount of time in the UK and Europe.

As VP of Mid-Market & Enterprise Sales, Matt’s goal is to ensure that Jobvite is successful in the enterprise. He describes his management style as leading by example and learning with his team while also teaching them.

“The space is incredibly crowded with technology partners that claim to do what we do and they don’t. They don’t compare on any front. The Enterprise team has to be the authority on the space and on Jobvite to help ensure that all prospects understand the profound impact our product can have on their company. It’s a tough task, be we are going to make it happen!”

Skip Hilton
Vice President, Business Development

Skip Hilton is a man of many talents. He understands the intricacies of building partnerships, he knows how to drive revenue, and—like anyone who once worked as a bartender—he just gets people.

Today, Skip applies his talents, along with over 20 years’ experience in business development and B2B Internet and enterprise software, to his work at Jobvite. He excels at unlocking new opportunities that foster not only Jobvite’s continued growth and innovation, but the growth and innovation of our partners and customers as well.

“I believe in the power of partnerships,” Skip says. “Our customers get more value from Jobvite when we work together with other providers that help them recruit better.  I am glad that I can help make that happen.”
