Darin has joined the BraveNewTalent as Director of Sales and will be the company's third hire in its new Silicon Valley headquarters. BraveNewTalent is based in London with a 20-person strong global team.

Darin will be heading up global enterprise sales for the social technology company that aims to change the face of the professional side of the EdTech and Talent management industry with Talent Communities.

BraveNewTalent's platform addresses major problems in the talent employment market by improving efficiencies in the way organizations engage, develop and recruit future and current employees via talent communities and relevant professional content. Their enterprise product offering launched in August and early global customers are starting to onboard driving continued growth.

BraveNewTalent Founder and CEO, Lucian Tarnowski, said, "Darin is one of the best talent solutions sales people out there today and we're delighted to welcome him to head up our sales operations in Silicon Valley. His experience at LinkedIn led to his interest in BraveNewTalent and our mission. His vision for the future of the industry completely aligns with our unique approach to talent engagement and development. The next five years will see a revolution rather than evolution in how organizations attract, engage and develop Talent. Darin will work at bringing this innovation to the mainstream."

I'm excited to build a sales organization armed with the right social platform that addresses this complex issue.  Additionally, I'm encouraged by the leadership team's commitment to customer success. BraveNewTalent is the future of Talent Communities, talent engagement and development, and I look forward to the positive response from the Talent Acquisition community as they embrace it."
