  • Oversee daily operations for the team, including req assignments, interview consistency, hiring manager calibration, ATS data hygeine

  • Carry your own partial req load

You'd Be a Great Fit If…

  • You have 6+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including significant experience hiring for sales or go-to-market teams.

  • You're comfortable with recruiting data. You understand funnel math, track metrics closely, and use them to make decisions and inform stakeholders.

  • You write and speak clearly and concisely. You keep stakeholders updated without being asked and follow through on commitments.
