Background
Talent Acquisition Manager
Brittany Kirking is a Talent Acquisition Manager at The Well. She brings close to 20 years of recruiting experience, and since joining The Well in March 2026 she has placed wealth advisors, financial advisors, lead advisors, service advisors and client service associates with wealth management firms.
Her career started in recruiting and never left it. While at the University of Idaho, where she earned a B.S. in Communications, she worked as a telecounselor. She went on to coordinate retail recruiting at Coldwater Creek and then recruited for West Corporation, the communications company, in Spokane. In 2012 she moved into physician recruiting at Apogee Physicians, and in 2020 she joined The Judge Group as a Senior Contract Recruiter in healthcare, where she earned the firm's Chairman's Club and Diamond Club recognition. She also holds an A.S. in Business Administration from North Idaho College.
Physician recruiting is a demanding school. The candidates are scarce, the stakes are high and the decision often involves a family move. Brittany learned to build pipelines for hard seats, earn the trust of hiring leaders and follow through when it counts. Those habits translate directly to wealth management, where the best advisors are rarely looking and every move involves clients who follow trust.
Brittany was drawn to The Well by its people. From her first conversations with the team, she found everyone warm, genuine and welcoming. She felt at home right away and knew The Well was where she was supposed to be. Today, she is known on both sides of the search for responsiveness, attention to detail and making every person in the process feel like the priority.
One search shows how she works. A firm in Flagstaff, Arizona had been trying for months to hire a financial advisor with a CFP. Candidate after candidate passed because they did not want to relocate to Flagstaff, and the firm eventually dropped the CFP requirement. When Brittany took the search over, she reframed it around what the firm actually needed: a client service advisor with no business development burden, ideally someone who already knew and loved Flagstaff. Within a few months her candidate accepted the offer.
That is Brittany's approach. She listens for the real need under the job description, then finds the person who fits it.
Brittany lives in North Idaho. Outside work she loves trivia, time with family and friends, and her faith, which shapes how she treats every candidate and client she works with.
