ABOUT AIRRACK
Airrack is one of the fastest-growing channels on YouTube, built on high-energy stunts, viral challenges, and record-breaking moments. We're a lean, scrappy team that punches way above our weight — and the people behind the camera are just as important as what ends up on screen. We move fast, think creatively, and hold ourselves to an insanely high bar. If you've ever watched one of our videos and thought "I want to be part of that" — this is your shot.

THE ROLE

Reporting to the Head of Operations, you'll own full-cycle recruiting for roles across content, production, and business operations. You'll work directly with department leads to find people who thrive in fast-moving, high-creativity environments — and who genuinely care about what we're building.

This role is for someone who understands that the right hire can change everything, and who takes that responsibility seriously.
