About the Opportunity
We're partnering with a high-growth technology company looking for a hands-on Director of Talent Acquisition to lead hiring during an exciting phase of growth.
This is a leadership role for someone who enjoys balancing strategy with execution. You'll personally lead critical searches while shaping the recruiting function, improving processes, and partnering directly with senior leadership to influence hiring decisions across the business.
If you thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy building as much as operating and want the opportunity to leave your mark on how a company hires, this role offers significant visibility and impact.
What You'll Do
Own a portfolio of active requisitions, primarily focused on technical and leadership hiring.
Lead and develop a small Talent Acquisition function consisting of one full-time recruiter supported by recruiting contractors.
Build trusted partnerships with executives and hiring managers, advising on hiring strategy, market trends, and talent availability.
Design and improve recruiting processes that increase speed, quality, and candidate experience.
Create consistency across interview practices, hiring decisions, and recruiter operations.
Develop sourcing strategies for difficult-to-fill and business-critical roles.
Use recruiting data to identify opportunities, forecast hiring needs, and provide meaningful updates to leadership.
Partner closely with the Chief People Officer on workforce planning and organizational growth.
Influence employer branding and candidate experience initiatives.
Continuously evaluate recruiting technology, automation, and AI to improve efficiency.
What We're Looking For
10+ years of Talent Acquisition experience with at least 2 years leading recruiting teams.
Experience recruiting across technical and corporate functions within high-growth technology companies.
A leader who is equally comfortable building recruiting strategy and personally closing key hires.
Strong executive presence with the ability to influence senior stakeholders.
Experience coaching recruiters and managing external recruiting partners.
Data-driven mindset with experience using recruiting metrics to improve performance.
Comfortable working in ambiguity and building scalable processes from the ground up.
Excellent communication, organization, and stakeholder management skills.
You'll Be Successful If You
Enjoy being close to the work while leading a team.
Move quickly without sacrificing quality.
See process as something to continuously improve, not maintain.
Build credibility through partnership and execution.
Are energized by solving hiring challenges in a fast-changing environment.
Want a seat at the table with executive leadership and the opportunity to shape how Talent Acquisition evolves.
Why This Role?
High visibility with direct exposure to the executive leadership team.
Report directly to the Chief People Officer and help influence company growth.
Opportunity to modernize and shape Talent Acquisition your way.
Small, agile team where your ideas can quickly become reality.
Fast-paced environment with meaningful ownership and autonomy.
A chance to build a recruiting function that scales alongside a growing technology business.
Fully remote with unlimited PTO
