The posting

We're looking for a Head of Recruitment who can own hiring strategy and execution end to end for a fast-growing, globally distributed team. This role is built for a scrappy, systems-minded leader who knows how to recruit at scale for remote roles, move fast without sacrificing quality, and build repeatable hiring engines from the ground up.

We are specifically looking for someone based in the Philippines with deep experience sourcing and placing Filipino talent across remote roles. You understand the Philippine talent market, know where to find strong candidates across executive support, marketing, technical, and operational functions, and can build pipelines that consistently deliver quality hires from the region.

This is not a passive leadership role. You will be hands-on, deeply involved in sourcing, process design, and closing critical hires. If you thrive in startup environments, know how to balance speed with judgment, and enjoy building recruiting infrastructure rather than inheriting it, this role is a strong fit.

Why You'll Want to Join

  • You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
  • Paid Time Off in accordance with company policy
  • Observance of Holidays per company guidelines
  • 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you're most productive
  • This role requires availability during US business hours
  • High-ownership role with direct influence on company growth and talent quality
  • Opportunity to build and lead the recruitment function as the company scales

What You'll Work On

Recruitment Strategy and Leadership

  • Own the recruiting function end to end across internal and client-facing roles
  • Define hiring strategy, priorities, and execution plans aligned with business goals
  • Partner closely with leadership to forecast hiring needs and timelines
  • Set standards for candidate quality, speed, and hiring consistency across Philippine talent markets

Hands-On Sourcing and Hiring

  • Personally source and close critical roles across executive, marketing, technical, and operations functions with a focus on Philippine talent
  • Build and maintain high-quality pipelines across the Philippines for remote roles
  • Leverage outbound sourcing, referrals, local job boards, and creative sourcing strategies specific to the Philippine market
  • Conduct interviews, guide stakeholders, and drive offers through close

Process, Systems, and Scale

  • Design and refine recruiting workflows, scorecards, and hiring playbooks
  • Implement and optimize ATS and sourcing tools
  • Ensure consistent candidate experience across all touchpoints
  • Track recruiting metrics including pipeline health, time to hire, and quality signals

Team and Partner Management

  • Manage or mentor recruiters and sourcers as the team grows
  • Apply BPO-style discipline where helpful without sacrificing startup speed
  • Hold recruiting partners accountable to quality and performance standards

What You Bring

  • 10 or more years of experience in recruitment, talent acquisition, or staffing leadership
  • Based in the Philippines with deep, current knowledge of the Philippine remote talent market
  • Proven experience hiring for remote roles across multiple functions from the Philippines
  • Background in BPO, agency, or high-volume recruiting environments in the Philippines is a strong plus
  • Startup experience with comfort operating in fast-changing, ambiguous environments
  • Strong sourcing instincts and willingness to stay hands-on
  • Confident communicator who can partner with leadership and influence hiring decisions
  • Excellent written and spoken English communication skills

Nice to Have

  • Experience building recruiting teams or functions from scratch
  • Deep network of Filipino talent across executive support, marketing, and technical roles
  • Strong data instincts around funnels, sourcing performance, and hiring outcomes
  • Experience placing Filipino talent with US-based clients or employers

How to Apply

Please include:

  1. Your updated resume
  2. A short Loom video (1 to 2 minutes) introducing yourself, describing your experience recruiting Philippine talent for remote roles, and explaining how you have built or scaled a recruiting function from the ground up

Only candidates who submit a Loom video will be moved to the next step of the hiring process.

If you are a builder who enjoys owning hiring outcomes, rolling up your sleeves, and shaping the talent foundation of a growing company from the Philippines, this role gives you the authority, autonomy, and scope to make a real impact.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
