Shannon Martini

Senior Executive Recruiter

Shannon’s career path into executive recruiting wasn’t a straight line—it started behind the bar. After working at Charlotte favorites like Legion Brewing and Charlotte Beer Garden, she realized what she loved most wasn’t just the craft beer community… it was connecting with people. That skill naturally translated into recruiting, where she discovered she genuinely enjoys helping people find roles that feel aligned—not just roles that check boxes.

She brings a warm, honest, and holistic approach to every search. For Shannon, a successful placement isn’t just about matching skills to a job description; it’s about understanding who someone is, what they want next, and what will help them thrive long term.

Born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, Shannon eventually traded the East Coast for Colorado, and Golden now feels like home. Outside of work, you’ll find her skiing, mountain biking, camping, or reading—usually with her golden retriever, Billy, close by. She has a deep love for the outdoors and will happily spend any season outside.

At her core, Shannon is relationship-driven, curious, and committed to making the hiring process more human—and a whole lot less transactional.
