About the role

  • Execute the Talent Acquisition strategy and operating model defined by TA leadership by designing new workflows, not reinforcing old ones
  • Identify recruiting practices that persist due to habit rather than value and lead their replacement through technology and automation
  • Translate strategic direction into scalable systems, processes, and decision frameworks
  • Design recruiting workflows that intentionally reduce human intervention where signal quality supports automation
  • Own day-to-day enterprise relationships with recruiting technology partners including Ashby, LinkedIn, Humanly, Jove, and emerging platforms
  • Push vendors beyond default configurations to support evolving recruiting models
  • Lead experimentation, pilots, and iterative adoption of new features and capabilities
  • Partner with vendors to improve how candidate signals are surfaced earlier and used more effectively
  • Lead the application of AI and automation to replace repetitive recruiter tasks and improve screening and prioritization
  • Establish clear principles for what should be automated, AI-assisted, or human-led
  • Continuously test, refine, and evolve signal models as hiring needs change
  • Lead change through system design and enablement rather than mandate
  • Accept and manage short-term resistance in service of long-term improvement
  • Partner with recruiters to validate outcomes, not preserve preferences
  • Balance speed, adoption, and trust while maintaining forward momentum
  • Build workflow architectures, playbooks, operating guides, and training materials
  • Develop executive-ready updates on progress, risks, and tradeoffs
  • Surface insights to TA leadership to inform ongoing strategy decisions.

Requirements

  • Senior-level experience in TA enablement, recruiting systems, recruiting operations, or TA transformation roles
  • Hands-on experience with Ashby ATS (or Greenhouse)
  • Demonstrated success implementing AI and automation in recruiting environments
  • Track record of modernizing recruiting practices
  • Strong systems-thinking and workflow design capabilities
  • Comfort driving change without positional authority.
Benefits
  • We believe in giving associates progressive opportunities
  • Actively nurturing professional growth
  • Giving back to the community
  • Innovative workplace and culture that fosters camaraderie, teamwork, and work-life balance.
