- About the role
- Partner closely with the in-house executive recruiting team to define priority companies, teams, and roles across areas such as Ads, Discovery/Recommendations and monetization/platform engineering for large creator ecosystems.
- Run deep intake sessions with recruiting and hiring leaders to clarify success profiles, known “must-know” talent, and existing market knowledge, then translate this into clear research roadmaps
- Embed full-time into the internal talent team, acting under the company brand in all candidate interactions and communications.
- Use email, ATS and collaboration tools, partnering closely with senior leadership to ensure consistent, high-context messaging throughout every search.
- Own end-to-end recruitment for the Director of Global Development profile across priority markets, from intake and sourcing through interviews, stakeholder management and closing offers.
- What you’ll do
- Lead the full hiring lifecycle: define requirements, build search strategy, source and engage senior talent, run structured assessments, and manage offers/closing.
- Operate as eyes and ears on the ground across key regions (Germany, UK, France, Poland, Nordics, India, China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Australia), constantly mapping talent pools and keeping a live view of the market.
- Provide regional market intelligence on candidate availability, compensation benchmarks and competitor moves, advising which markets to prioritize and how to tailor offers.
- Build a high-touch, story-led candidate experience, representing the organisation’s mission and track record with credibility to senior leaders and investors.
- What you bring
- 5+ years’ experience recruiting venture and early-stage leaders, especially rare “fundraise → build” profiles where capital raising, company building and ambiguity are core to success.
- Proven ability to read beyond the surface assessing sales ability, stakeholder navigation, resilience, and real commercial outcomes.
- Track record hiring across multiple markets and networks spanning venture, strategy, healthcare and founder ecosystems.
- Fluency venture models: able to engage senior candidates credibly while balancing that healthcare experience is preferred, not mandatory.
