Founding Sales Recruiter

Bookkeepers today are stuck working in excel spreadsheets and homegrown project management solutions to support their clients. Keeper is on a mission to change that.

With our all-in-one tool, bookkeepers can manage their work, communicate with clients, catch hard-to-find errors, and deliver reports to help their small business customers make smarter strategic decisions.

Founded in 2021, Keeper has raised $12M in funding, backed by leading tech investors like Y Combinator and founders at top startups like Lattice, Front, Superhuman, Plaid, and more. Keeper currently helps thousands of bookkeepers and accountants manage the books for startups and small businesses across the US.

Your job is to find, qualify, and attract top talent to join our Sales team.

This role will report to the Sales Manager.

You will be the first full-time in-house recruiter at Keeper. While we expect you to bring your experience and expertise to help us streamline our recruiting processes, this is still a roll-up-your-sleeves and get-things-done type of position where you will be sourcing applications, cold calling, cold emailing, and cold LI Messaging potential candidates.

You will be given a very high level of autonomy, a budget, and the best tech stack you need to succeed.

You can run experiments and be creative. Want to travel to various campuses around the country and recruit? Go for it. Want to host a lunch and learn for a group of candidates? Go for it. Want to try something new that has never been done before, but you think it can work? Go for it.
