What you’ll do

We're looking for a full-cycle Recruiter to own hiring across key Business and GTM functions — Sales, Legal, Risk, Compliance, Finance, Operations, Strategy, and Marketing. You'll partner directly with executives and hiring managers to attract top talent at every level, from individual contributors to Director.

This is a high-impact, hands-on role for someone who moves fast, thinks creatively, and uses data to make sharp decisions. You'll be a trusted advisor to senior leaders — pushing back when the situation calls for it and building sourcing strategies that consistently deliver diverse, high-caliber talent.

This hybrid role is based in San Francisco or New York.

Responsibilities:
  • Partner with senior leaders and hiring managers to define role requirements and build clear, effective hiring strategies

  • Design and execute creative, data-driven sourcing strategies across platforms, events, and outreach to attract diverse talent

  • Lead thorough candidate assessments and guide hiring managers through structured, consistent selection processes

  • Own the offer process end-to-end — from compensation negotiation to closing — while delivering an exceptional candidate experience

  • Track and analyze recruiting metrics to optimize processes, surface trends, and inform stakeholder decisions

  • Challenge assumptions with confidence, using market data and insights to drive better hiring outcomes

  • Champion Airwallex's employer brand in competitive markets, staying sharp on industry trends and labor market dynamics

  • Continuously improve recruiting workflows to increase speed, quality, and compliance

Who you are

We’re looking for people who meet the minimum qualifications for this role. The preferred qualifications are great to have, but are not mandatory.

Minimum qualifications:
  • 7 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally for GTM and Business functions in a tech startup environment

  • Proven ability to influence hiring managers and senior stakeholders

  • Strong command of recruiting data and analytics to guide decisions and optimize processes

  • Track record of building innovative, multi-channel sourcing strategies

  • High sense of urgency with a consistent record of delivering in fast-moving environments

  • Clear, confident communicator — written, verbal, and in data presentations

  • Skilled at navigating complex offer negotiations and candidate scenarios

  • Adaptable and resourceful when managing competing priorities

Preferred qualifications:
  • Familiarity with Ashby
