People Operations - Talent Acquisition (100% Remote)

About Us

At Close, we're building the sales communication and collaboration platform of the future. With our roots as the very first sales CRM to include built-in calling, we're leading the industry in sales automation—helping companies to close more deals, faster than ever.  Since our founding in 2013, we've grown to become a profitable, 100% globally distributed team that is dedicated to building a product our customers love.

We care deeply about the candidate experience and looking for someone to join our team that is solely responsible for all aspects of hiring and recruiting as we grow our current team of ~55. 

About You

You should have a commitment to integrity, quality, friendly-strength, and team building. You have a background in People Operations for a SaaS or tech company where hiring and recruiting efforts were part of your work. Now you are looking to grow into a position where talent acquisition is your main focus.

Our team is heavily engineering focused; you should have the technical aptitude to recruit for these types of roles in addition to marketing, sales, support and success. 

You have a deep understanding and awareness of the market and how to connect with top talent. You showcase a high level of discernment, sense of urgency, exceptional attention to detail and have strong follow-up and follow-through.

You are comfortable working remotely as part of a small team with a high level of autonomy. You can devise your own schedule and effectively manage your workload based on the company priorities. 

You will be the main point of contact for all candidates and team members involved in the hiring process - anticipating needs on both sides is a critical part of this role. You care about the candidate experience and are always looking for ways to improve.
