Senior Recruiter (Contract)

Mercury is building financial products to help startups and small businesses scale. Turns out this requires a lot of people, so we’re looking to add a Senior Recruiter Contractor to our high performing and fun loving Recruiting Team! You will support hiring for roles across our Customer Support, Risk, and Operations orgs. You’ll partner closely with a variety of teams and hiring managers, hiring top notch talent across all non-technical orgs. This will initially be a 3 month contract, with the possibility of extension based on business needs.

Here are some things you’ll do on the job:

• Run a full cycle recruiting pipeline end to end across various teams and roles within the Risk and Customer Support orgs. 
• Source passive candidates, conduct phone screens, keep candidates updated and moving quickly throughout the process, extending offers, and offer negotiations.
• Work closely with managers and interviewers to build high-performing, diverse teams.
• Make a warm and genuine first impression on candidates and (no pressure) act as the living embodiment of our cultural values.
• Develop a deep understanding of Mercury’s values, brand, and product.
• Be a strategic partner to hiring managers and interviewers, and guide them to make the best decisions on candidates.
• Monitor pipeline performance and make data driven decisions. 
• Champion diversity and inclusion initiatives.
• Actively think of ways to improve and scale recruiting processes.

You should:

• Have a bachelor’s degree or something you feel is equivalent.
• Have 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, from sourcing to closing.
• Have recruited for similar roles in the past. 
• Experience running full cycle recruiting on high volume or evergreen roles is a huge plus, but not required. 
• Be excited to learn new areas of the business, partner with different hiring managers, and be willing to take on new roles as they come up. 
• See yourself as an expert sourcer and enjoy seeking out passive talent.
• Have an almost psychic level of empathy and intuition.
• Communicate with clarity, thought, and precision. 
• Enjoy building diverse, inclusive, and high-performing teams.
• Think about how to automate as much of your job as possible, and have a bias towards action.
• Keep track of what you’re working on, even when you’re working on a hundred different things.
• Genuinely love recruiting and all that comes with it! 

Schedule Information:

• Required: to work a Monday - Friday schedule,  ~40 hours per week
• Working hours are flexible as long as you can work generally between the hours of 8am and 6pm, in your local time zone
• Length of Contract: 3 months (possibility of extension based on team need and performance in the role)
