Recruitment & Operations Lead

Remote | Full-Time | Philippines Preferred (3-Month Build Phase)

We’re hiring someone to take full ownership of recruitment inside a fast-moving remote agency.

This is not a support role.

You won’t be assisting another recruiter or waiting for instructions. You’ll be responsible for running the hiring process end-to-end, improving how it works, and helping us build a stronger team as we grow.

You’ll work directly with the Founder and play a key role in shaping how recruitment operates going forward.

Compensation

$1,150–$1,450/month depending on experience, with clear progression based on performance during the initial 3-month build phase.

The Role

You’ll take ownership of recruitment from application through to hire.

Some systems already exist. Some need improving. Some still need to be built.

If you enjoy bringing structure to a slightly messy environment, improving processes, and taking responsibility for outcomes, this role will suit you.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

Own and manage the full recruitment pipeline:

• Review inbound candidates and move them through the process

• Run screening calls and first-round interviews

• Evaluate candidates and provide clear recommendations

• Coordinate interviews and manage candidate communication

• Keep our ATS (100Hires) fully organised and up to date

Strengthen and build pipelines when needed:

• Source candidates for key roles when quality or volume is low

• Build candidate pools for future hiring needs

Improve how recruitment operates:

• Identify gaps and inefficiencies in the hiring process

• Improve workflows, structure, and candidate experience

• Help document and refine hiring playbooks over time

Support broader operations when needed:

• Assist with operational tasks during quieter hiring periods

What We’re Looking For

• At least 3 years of experience in recruitment, talent acquisition, or similar

• Proven experience managing end-to-end recruitment processes (not just assisting)

• Comfortable running interviews and making candidate evaluations

• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail

• Clear and confident communication (written and verbal)

• Ability to work independently and take ownership without constant direction

• Comfortable working in a fast-moving, evolving environment

Experience with ATS platforms such as 100Hires, Ashby, Lever, or Greenhouse is a strong advantage.

The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here

This role is best suited for someone who:

• Takes ownership rather than waiting for instructions

• Spots problems and looks for ways to improve them

• Communicates clearly, especially when something isn’t working

• Is comfortable being held accountable for outcomes

• Wants to grow into a more senior, strategic role over time

Important

We’re specifically looking for someone who has owned recruitment processes before.

If your experience has mainly been supporting, coordinating, or assisting, this role likely won’t be the right fit.

Why This Role

You’ll have a direct impact on how the company grows.

You’ll work closely with the Founder, gain exposure to decision-making, and have the opportunity to build something properly — not just follow a fixed process.
