Recruiter, Product & G&A ( Contract)

Job description

About the Role We're looking for an experienced full-cycle Recruiter to join us on an initial 5-month contract, with the potential to convert to a full-time role, to own hiring for our Product and G&A (General & Administrative) functions, with a particular focus on Go-To-Market (GTM)-adjacent roles. This is a high-visibility position for someone who has spent their career recruiting within financial services or FinTech and knows how to run a search, manage a pipeline, and confidently guide senior stakeholders through a hiring process. What You'll Do Own full-cycle recruiting for Product and G&A roles, from intake through offer and close, across a range of levels including senior and executive-level hires. Partner directly with hiring managers, department heads, and executive leadership to define hiring strategy, calibrate on candidate profiles, and manage searches with a strong sense of urgency and quality. Build and manage talent pipelines for product, GTM-adjacent functions (e.g., Revenue Operations, Strategy, Business Operations) as well as core G&A functions (Finance, Legal, People, Compliance). Act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders — confidently pushing back, managing expectations, and navigating competing priorities across the business. Source proactively using a mix of direct sourcing, referrals, and market mapping specific to financial services and FinTech talent pools. Manage the end-to-end candidate experience, ensuring a high-touch, professional process for candidates at every level, including senior and executive candidates. Negotiate offers and manage closing conversations for competitive, senior-level candidates. Maintain accurate pipeline data, reporting, and forecasting in Workday to support broader talent planning. Continuously refine and improve our recruiting process, tools, and candidate experience for Product and G&A hiring. What We're Looking For 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with the majority of that time spent recruiting within financial services and/or FinTech. Demonstrated experience recruiting for GTM and/or GTM-adjacent roles (e.g, Sales Strategy, Revenue Operations) in addition to Product and G&A functions. A track record of operating in a fast-moving, high-growth environment and adapting recruiting strategy as business needs shift. Strong experience navigating and influencing senior-level stakeholders, including executives — comfortable being a strategic partner in the room, not just an order-taker. Deep familiarity with the financial services/FinTech talent landscape: where the talent lives, who the competitor companies are, and what it takes to win candidates in this space. Excellent judgment and consultative instincts, able to advise hiring managers on role scoping, leveling, and market realities. Strong offer negotiation and closing skills, particularly for senior and hard-to-fill roles. Excellent organizational skills and comfort managing multiple concurrent searches at varying levels of seniority. Experience with Workday is a plus. What This Role Is Not This is not a technical recruiting role. Candidates should bring deep domain/functional recruiting expertise in Product and G&A — not a background in engineering or technical sourcing. Contract Details Initial engagement: 5 months, full-time hours. Strong potential to convert to a permanent, full-time position based on performance, hiring needs, and mutual fit. Contractor will be embedded with the TA team and treated as a core member of the org for the duration of the engagement. In office 4 days a week ( WFH on Fridays) Why Join Us This is an opportunity to be a strategic partner to Product and G&A leadership at a company operating at the intersection of financial services and technology. You'll have real ownership over how we build out these teams, direct access to senior leaders, and the chance to shape hiring practices as we continue to scale — with a clear path to a permanent seat on the team for the right person. $60/hr. - $70/hr.
