Senior Recruiter - Executive and Leadership

Description

Bell Labs' Mervin Kelly designed long shared hallways so researchers from different fields would bump into each other, and the lab's strong work often came from those chance meetings. Hiring leaders follows the same logic: the executive you need next year is often someone you already know from earlier.

The company makes banking and finance software for startups and growing businesses. The leaders hired here decide how that software is built, sold, and protected. You will help find them as a Senior Recruiter.

You will join a small executive recruiting team that works with founders and executives to fill roles from Director up to C-suite. Most searches will be for Director and VP positions, mainly in Engineering, Product, Design, and Data. You will also build relationships with strong leaders before roles open, and step into urgent hiring sprints when needed.

The company is a fintech firm, not an FDIC-insured bank. Banking services are provided through Choice Financial Group and Column N.A., Members FDIC.

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle searches for Director and VP roles, focusing on Engineering, Product, Design, and Data leadership.
• Work with each hiring manager to define the role: what the team must build or repair, and who has done that work before. Turn this into a market map and a target list.
• Discuss scope, team, and tradeoffs with senior candidates, and speak for the company's leadership when they cannot attend in person.
• Use market data to guide hiring managers. Challenge any spec that will not find a candidate, and flag stalled searches early.
• Run executive talent events and grow a network of leaders for roles expected to open within 12 to 24 months.
• Join hiring sprints and other high-priority searches across the company.
• Make the process memorable for senior candidates from the first message through to the offer.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of full-cycle, in-house recruiting across several functions at a growing company.
• Experience running Director-level and above searches, and a wish to make these your main focus.
• A record of acting as a trusted advisor to senior hiring managers, ideally CTOs, VPs of Engineering, or product leaders.
• Strong relationships with senior people, built well before you needed them.
• Clear, precise writing and communication.
• Experience with LinkedIn Recruiter, Greenhouse, Gem, Metaview, or similar tools.
• A strong plus: experience hiring technical leaders in Engineering, Product, Data, or Security.
• A strong plus: recruiting at a fintech or other regulated tech company.
• A strong plus: running events, dinners, or communities for senior talent.
• A strong plus: time at a retained search firm before moving in-house.
