Business Recruiter

We are looking for a Business Recruiter to handle full-cycle nontechnical talent acquisition with a focus on GTM roles. You’ll be hands on with sourcing, interview design, and closing. You’ll partner closely with hiring managers on both the “who” and the “why” of building out their teams.

Recruiting is one of the most important functions at Clay. We hope you’ll play a key role in how Clay goes from early-stage product to a unicorn team with the proverbial line out the door!

What You’ll Do

• Leading full-cycle recruiting for nontechnical roles at all levels. Think everything from “Community Lead” to “Product Support Specialist” to “Head of Finance”!

• Working with other teammates to ensure a delightful candidate experience, from the first conversation through their first day.

• Sourcing - lots of it! Clay has a strong pitch when it comes to revenue and growth, but we’re still in the early stages of getting the word out.

• Collaborating with leadership on strategic aspects of recruiting. Success in this role isn’t just about filling requisitions, but also about quality of hire and designing effective interview processes.

What You'll Bring

• You have a stellar track record across 4+ years of business recruiting experience.

  • Strongly preferred: at least 1 year of in-house and/or early-stage startup GTM recruiting experience

• You are in NYC and excited about an in-person office environment (think 4-5 days per week). You’ll be joining a team with a vibrant and creative culture, but you’ll also be a part of shaping that as Clay grows.

• You’re an effective communicator in both written and spoken contexts.

• You’re an excellent interviewer, with an eye for talent that will thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic startup—not just the most pedigreed applicant!

• You prioritize candidate experience, and have helped shaped that in your previous roles.

Life @ Clay 

Based out of a central office on 19th Street in Manhattan's Flatiron District. We love the energy of in-person collaboration while also offering the flexibility to work from home when needed.

• Competitive salary and role trajectory: Roles, responsibilities, and comp grow as we do

• Health insurance: Fully funded, high quality health, dental & vision coverage (including 80-100% therapy coverage)

• Visa sponsorship: We get it - it's an arduous process, but we're not scared of it

• Paid time off: We expect team members to take at least 3 weeks fully-disconnected per year, with a flexible vacation policy beyond that

• Free lunch: Lunch is provided in office every day

• Parental leave & fertility support: IVF fertility benefits, egg freezing, and 4 months of paid parental leave
