About this role

What we're looking for?

We are seeking a Founding Recruiter with 3-5 years of experience, ideally from a high-growth, talent-dense startup (like Ramp or Harvey) or a top-tier boutique agency. You should be an outbound sourcing machine, comfortable owning the top of the funnel, and have a proven track record of identifying and attracting exceptional talent. Bonus points if you have experience scaling teams in a zero-to-one environment.

What you'll do:

• Own end-to-end recruiting for both technical and non-technical roles, with an initial focus on Sales and Post-Sales.
• Take ownership of building a robust top-of-funnel pipeline through outbound sourcing, talent mapping, and networking.
• Work closely with the founders to define what exceptional talent looks like and calibrate on candidate profiles.
• Develop and execute creative sourcing strategies to attract the top .01% of candidates.
• Drive the candidate experience from first touch through to close, ensuring a high-touch and positive process.
• Maintain impeccable data hygiene in our ATS (Ashby) to track pipeline and performance metrics.
