Senior Global Recruiter

✨ One platform, a whole world of opportunity The best jobs have always clustered in a handful of the world's wealthiest cities. But talent is everywhere. Oyster set out to close that gap - building a global employment platform that lets companies hire, pay, and care for brilliant people anywhere. We're proof that a high-performing culture doesn't need an office. Distributed across 60+ countries since 2020, we've built something the industry keeps noticing: Ranked #10 of 250 on TIME and Statista's 2026 list of America's Top WorkTech Companies Named one of America's Greatest Startup Workplaces 2026 by Newsweek A G2 Spring 2026 Leader across Employer of Record, Global Employment, Multi-country Payroll, and HR Compliance The only B Corp-certified global employment platform ~ independently verified since 2023 Two of those rankings measured our business impact from the outside. One measured how our own people feel about working here. They landed in the same place ~ because at Oyster, culture and performance aren't separate conversations. They're the same one. And we're just getting started. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who care as much as you do, we'd love for you to apply. Senior Global Recruiter (12-month fixed-term contract) Location: Fully remote. Open to candidates in EMEA, Canada or the US East Coast as preferred anchors. You'll need working-day overlap with both EMEA and North America, so being in a timezone that is UTC +2 / -5 is required. We help companies hire the best people anywhere. This role is where we do it for ourselves. Oyster makes it possible for companies to hire, pay and care for great people in more than 180 countries, without setting up entities, and without choosing between moving fast and doing it right. We're a B Corp, we're remote by design, and we're in the middle of the most ambitious phase of our history: rebuilding how we operate, hiring senior talent into the functions that will carry the next stage of growth, and putting AI to work in places where it genuinely changes what a small team can do. We're hiring a Senior Global Recruiter on a 12-month fixed-term contract to help us land that talent. You'll run a truly global remit across a diverse scope of roles — a Senior Payroll Specialist in Portugal one week, Senior Counsel in Canada the next, a Customer Success hire in LATAM after that, and heck, maybe even a Lead Product role in Spain, just for good measure — with full ownership from first conversation to signed offer. This is a talent partner role, not a service role. You'll be in the room with senior leaders shaping what a role really needs, telling them when the market disagrees with them, and holding a high bar on who gets hired. And because our team runs without a recruitment coordinator, you'll be building the systems and automations that make that possible — which is where the interesting part is! Core Responsibilities Own full-cycle recruitment for experienced-hire searches across Product, Operations, Finance & Accounting, Legal & Compliance and customer-facing teams — sourcing, assessment, offer, close Partner with hiring managers as an advisor : scope and calibrate roles, set the assessment approach, and push back with evidence when the brief and the market don't match. Understand feedback, iterate on the role requirements, and evolve your sourcing and hiring strategy as needed. Hire genuinely global talent across EMEA, LATAM and North America — adapting strategy and process to each market rather than exporting one playbook everywhere Build pipelines that don't rely on inbound : market mapping, direct outreach, community and referral routes, talent pooling for repeat needs Own candidate experience end to end : clear communication, honest feedback, a process people speak well of whether or not they get the job. Educate and engage candidates about the company's mission and journey in a compelling way Run your own recruiting operations in Ashby without sourcing or coordinator support, and keep the data clean enough to be worth reporting on Use AI and automation to change how the work gets done : sourcing and research, outreach, interview intelligence, ATS agents and workflows, reporting. Then share it, so the whole team gets the benefit Minimum Requirements Significant experience recruiting experienced and senior hires either as an in-house or embedded senior recruiter Depth in G&A hiring , specifically Operations (our biggest need), Finance and Legal & Compliance - BIG PLUS if you have experience hiring senior Product roles too. Multi-region recruiting experience , with real understanding of how markets differ, including comp norms, notice periods, candidate expectations across EMEA and the Americas Full recruiting cycle autonomy. You've owned searches end to end, without a sourcer or coordinator by your side. Excellent organization and time management across multiple time zones and searches is a must Hands-on ATS ownersh
