Torin Ellis is a principal at Torin Ellis Brand, a professional recruitment, talent development and media based concern with a focus on securing sales and sales leadership talent for clients and providing career coaching services to students and tenured professionals. Ellis is a well-known diversity recruiter practitioner. He is also board advisor at get-optimal and WORQ-Drive.

As a corporate recruiter, he has placed hundreds of workers in the engineering/technical arena over the years. In 1998, he formed his own recruiting company and has been contracted by giants such as Verizon Wireless, Oracle, AOL and Expedient. His specialty is offering advice to companies on why businesses should put their resources and efforts into diversity recruitment, especially in the tech industries.

When he’s not placing high-level candidates for employment in executive, sales and sales leadership positions, Ellis is dabbling in television, career-development boot camps and most recently, books. Recently, he flexed his recruiting chops as one of six contestants on “Top Recruiter - Reign of the Bosses," which aired on Netflix in November 2015.
