Sophie Faughnan serves as the Recruiting Operations Coordinator for BrainWorks, supporting the firm’s high-volume recruiting team. As the operational backbone of the team, she keeps interviews, candidate pipelines, and client information organized, accurate, and moving simultaneously across multiple active searches, so recruiters can focus their time on building relationships with candidates and clients. She also provides day-to-day administrative and technical support to the team. Organized, detail-oriented, and tech-savvy, Sophie thrives in a fast-paced work environment where priorities can change quickly. Fluent in both English and Spanish, she communicates with clarity and professionalism with candidates and colleagues on both sides of the Atlantic.

Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, Sophie earned her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Spanish from the College of Charleston, graduating cum laude. She was awarded a Fulbright Grant in 2024 to teach English in the Canary Islands, and after having lived and worked in different parts of Spain she now calls Seville home. Sophie dedicates her free time to creating Spanish-language digital content that bridges American and Spanish life, where she frequently collaborates with both local organizations and national brands to capture and promote marketing campaigns, events, and cultural experiences throughout the Seville community.
