Freelance Recruiter

Role Title: Freelance Recruiter (Contract)

Summary
We are looking for a results-driven Freelance Recruiter to support end-to-end hiring across multiple roles and seniority levels. This is a contract, flexible engagement suited to a self-directed recruiter who can manage searches independently, provide an excellent candidate experience, and deliver high-quality shortlists within agreed timelines. You will partner closely with hiring managers and the internal team to align on role requirements, sourcing strategy, and hiring outcomes.

Key Responsibilities
• Own full-cycle recruitment for assigned roles, from intake through offer acceptance
• Run structured intake meetings with hiring managers to clarify role scope, must-have criteria, interview process, and timelines
• Build targeted sourcing strategies and talent maps for each search, identifying relevant companies, titles, and candidate profiles
• Proactively source candidates via online platforms, referrals, direct outreach, and networking
• Write and refine candidate outreach messaging and job ads to improve response and conversion rates
• Screen candidates using consistent, role-aligned evaluation criteria; assess motivation, skills, and fit
• Coordinate interview stages, prepare candidates, collect feedback, and keep stakeholders aligned on next steps
• Manage pipeline and reporting: maintain accurate tracking, share weekly progress updates, and flag risks early (e.g., low response rate, compensation misalignment)
• Support offer process and closing: compensation alignment, candidate questions, notice periods, and start-date coordination
• Ensure a respectful, inclusive, and high-quality candidate experience throughout the process

Must-Have Requirements
• Proven experience delivering hires as an in-house recruiter, agency recruiter, or freelance recruiter
• Strong sourcing capability and confidence with direct outreach and passive-candidate engagement
• Ability to run end-to-end recruitment independently with minimal supervision
• Excellent stakeholder management and clear, timely communication
• Structured workflow and strong attention to detail (pipeline hygiene, documentation, follow-ups)
• Comfort working in a fast-moving environment with changing priorities
• Ability to manage multiple roles in parallel and meet agreed delivery timelines

Nice-to-Have Qualifications
• Experience recruiting for technical and/or specialist roles
• Familiarity with ATS/CRM tools and recruitment analytics (conversion rates, time-to-fill, funnel health)
• Experience recruiting across multiple geographies and time zones
• Strong copywriting for outreach sequences and job advertising
• Network in relevant functional areas that can accelerate shortlisting

Working Model
• Freelance/contract engagement with flexible working hours
• Scope may vary by project; you will align on roles, priorities, and expectations at the start of each assignment

What Success Looks Like
• High-quality, role-aligned shortlists delivered on schedule
• Consistent pipeline generation with healthy conversion rates from outreach to interview
• Positive feedback from candidates and hiring managers on communication and process
• Accurate, transparent reporting and proactive risk management

• Flexible schedule

• Remote work

• Project-based scope with potential for ongoing assignments

• Autonomy in how you run searches while partnering closely with the team
