Develop and execute recruiting strategies across EMEA, LATAM, and North America, adapting sourcing, compensation, process, and candidate engagement approaches to local market conditions. Build proactive talent pipelines through market mapping, direct outreach, communities, referrals, talent pools, and other sourcing channels beyond inbound applications.

Manage recruiting operations independently through Ashby or an equivalent ATS, including scheduling, pipeline management, reporting, data hygiene, and identifying stalled searches. Use AI tools and automation to improve sourcing, research, outreach, interview intelligence, ATS workflows, reporting, and overall recruiting productivity. Share effective AI-enabled recruiting practices and process improvements with the wider talent team to increase organizational efficiency. Manage multiple searches and stakeholders across different time zones while maintaining strong organization, prioritization, and delivery standards. Contribute to improving recruiting systems, processes, and operating models within an organization undergoing significant transformation.

Strong stakeholder management and talent-partnering capabilities, combined with excellent judgment and commercial awareness. Current, practical experience using AI or automation to improve recruiting workflows, sourcing, productivity, research, or decision-making. Strong commitment to candidate experience and the ability to balance hiring speed with quality and thoughtful assessment. Demonstrated accountability and autonomy in a remote-first environment. Excellent written and verbal English communication skills, particularly for clear, concise asynchronous collaboration across time zones. Strong organizational and time-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple searches, stakeholders, and changing priorities simultaneously. A reliable home internet connection and the ability to work effectively in a fully remote environment. Experience building Ashby agents, global Product hiring, APAC recruiting, unconventional sourcing strategies, or transitioning from agency/RPO to in-house recruiting would be an advantage.
