Job description

This is a remote position.

Role Overview

Our client is seeking an experienced Executive Recruiter to lead high-impact searches for senior, specialist, and business-critical roles across multiple industries. This is a consultative recruitment role, not a volume-based sourcing position.

As an Executive Recruiter, you will partner directly with founders, executives, and senior stakeholders to understand business needs, define success profiles, and deliver top-tier talent. You will own searches end-to-end—from role intake and strategy to candidate assessment, client advisory, and offer support.

This role is ideal for a recruiter who values quality over quantity, exercises strong judgment, and is comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced, remote environment.


Key Responsibilities

Client Partnership & Search Strategy

  • Partner directly with clients to understand business goals, role requirements, and hiring priorities

  • Advise clients on market conditions, role scoping, and candidate expectations

  • Define success profiles and hiring strategies for senior and specialized roles

Candidate Sourcing & Assessment

  • Source, screen, and interview high-caliber candidates across executive, leadership, and specialist positions

  • Conduct in-depth evaluations focused on experience, leadership, communication, and cultural alignment

  • Present well-vetted, endorsed candidates with clear insights and recommendations

End-to-End Recruitment Ownership

  • Manage the full recruitment lifecycle, including intake, sourcing, screening, submissions, interviews, and offers

  • Coordinate interviews and maintain clear communication with candidates and clients

  • Ensure a high-quality experience for both clients and candidates

Stakeholder Communication & Advisory

  • Act as a trusted advisor to clients throughout the hiring process

  • Provide timely updates, feedback summaries, and hiring recommendations

  • Support offer discussions and hiring decisions as needed



Requirements

Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in executive recruitment, senior-level recruiting, or specialist hiring

  • Strong experience managing end-to-end recruitment processes

  • Excellent interviewing, assessment, and communication skills

  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple searches simultaneously

  • Professional, consultative approach to client and candidate interactions


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience recruiting for senior roles across finance, operations, sales, technology, or leadership functions

  • Background in agency or retained executive search environments

  • Experience working with global or remote talent markets


What Success Looks Like

  • High-quality, well-aligned candidate submissions

  • Strong client satisfaction and repeat business

  • Efficient, well-managed recruitment processes

  • Trusted relationships with clients and candidates
