We spoke with Amy Dordek, Director of Business Development at Lucas James Talent Partners, about her experience in the cannabis industry as well as how she and her team have helped companies fill critical positions at MSOs and other providers.

“The cannabis industry is a fast-growing sector and companies in the space need talent from similar industries to meet the demands of the business.  I am in a unique position given my background as a former leader at a multi-state operator, so I understand both the cannabis business and what is required from a talent, skills and background perspective.. I am also passionate about making sure organizations, including in the cannabis industry, increase the diversity of their leadership teams. I was one of the few women in a senior leadership role and I know that diverse teams produce better results.

My company provides additional recruiting support or additional bandwidth for HR and recruiting teams. We can help them hire the right people for the right roles more quickly. We can also increase their efficiency and effectiveness in doing so while saving them on fees. I find that an exciting opportunity. 

As infuser, craft grow and dispensary licenses are awarded, companies will need experienced talent to quickly help them get up and running. We can help companies hire multiple people for multiple roles. These companies may not need or be able to afford HR or talent acquisition teams to focus on recruiting to fill key roles so we can provide a variable resource(s) for a period of time. They can avoid the costs of adding full time employees and reduce fees with our services. I also bring industry expertise as well as a national network that can be leveraged.” Amy Dordek
