What do these dynamic duos have in common?

They’re all Visionary (CEO) & Integrator (Director of Operations) partnerships.

1-800 T-Shirts.com is looking for a motivated, focused, and driven Integrator to join our team and help us become the category king of the decorated apparel industry. This position and our team have very high expectations. If you’re the right person for the job, you have equally high standards for yourself and are motivated by high expectations.

We play to Win, and we play all out.

The Integrator / Director of Operations is in charge of bringing the CEO’s ideas to life. This is arguably the most important role on our team as you are the glue that holds us all together.

Most hiring processes filter for availability. We filter for fit. Team Architects is a behavioral assessment-led recruiting firm. We help founders, CEOs, and operators stop guessing on candidates and start making data-backed hiring decisions through the TA-12, our proprietary 12-trait behavioral assessment. Every candidate we evaluate is scored across structure, problem-solving speed, adaptability, assertiveness, and eight additional behavioral and cognitive traits. Green means go. Red means no. We've screened nearly 10,000 applicants and administered 1,100+ TA-12 assessments across roles including Director of Operations, Executive Assistant, CFO, Account Executive, Sales Manager, and more. Two ways to work with us: TA Recruit: our full-service arm. We source, screen, assess, and deliver scored candidates ready for your interview process. Subscription Service: access the TA-12 and our complete hiring template library to run your own data-driven process in-house. Both start with one thing: knowing exactly who you're hiring for before you ever post a role. Take the next step: go.theteamarchitects.com/getstarted
