Who runs the firm, what it recruits for, and where it operates.
Who founded TRYSTUM Sourcing Specialists?
TRYSTUM Sourcing Specialists was founded by Gary Hall, a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur and digital marketing executive with more than twenty years across logistics recruiting, growth marketing and AI product development. He built TRYSTUM to apply operator-level screening to the three verticals he has worked in personally.
Is TRYSTUM a logistics recruiter or an AI recruiter?
Both, deliberately. Supply chain and logistics is the anchor vertical and the deepest bench. AI technology and AI marketing are the second and third, and they are recruited by someone who ships AI products rather than someone reading a job spec.
Where is TRYSTUM located?
TRYSTUM Sourcing Specialists is headquartered in Los Angeles, California, and recruits nationwide across the United States. Reach the firm at (424) 501-6078 or info@trystum.com.
