Own full-cycle recruiting for 8-12 roles annually across marketing, sales, creative, and operations.

This is a high-ownership role. You'll source, screen, and shortlist candidates across marketing, sales, creative, and operations roles - and you'll build a pipeline so we're never hiring reactively.
