Lead Recruiter (Hybrid)

Hi, Future Homie!

At Homebase, you’ll join a team that’s bold, fast-moving, and obsessed with helping small businesses thrive. We build with empathy, act with urgency, and take big swings that drive real-world impact. Here, every Homie shows up to raise the bar, support one another, and celebrate wins as a team.

We’re not just building an app—we’re building unstoppable teams. So what do you say, are you in?

📍Your Impact Starts Here

We’re looking for a Lead Recruiter who thrives in scaling startups and knows how to balance scrappiness with strategy. In this role, you’ll not only be the go-to partner for leaders across Marketing, Sales, Finance, People, and Operations — you’ll also coach and mentor other recruiters to raise the bar across the function.

• Design and execute recruiting strategies for GTM and G&A, building strong pipelines of passive and active talent through creative sourcing, campaigns, and AI-powered outreach.
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior leadership and hiring teams, defining role requirements and hiring strategy while providing data-driven market insights, compensation guidance, and interview best practices.
• Coach, mentor, and develop 1–2 recruiters, elevating team performance and building long-term capability.
• Lead executive and critical searches, navigating complex negotiations and influencing senior decision-making.
• Drive scalable, repeatable recruiting processes and frameworks that balance structure with scrappiness.
• Leverage recruiting analytics and metrics to assess pipeline health, identify systemic gaps, and implement improvements that continuously raise the bar.
• Introduce bold, creative, and AI-powered innovations to optimize hiring efficiency while preserving a world-class candidate experience.
• Contribute to company-wide talent strategy, bringing proactive insights and ideas to continuously improve how we hire.
  
  

🚀 The Foundation for Success - These are the experiences and strengths that will set you up for success in this role:

• 6 years of full-cycle recruiting in a high-growth, scaling startup environment.
• Proven success hiring for senior and executive-level GTM G&A roles.
• A collaborative and growth mindset
• A proven track record of collaboration with executive leadership and data-driven decision-making
• Strong business acumen and data-driven decision-making.
• Experience in coaching and developing other recruiters to higher performance
• Experience successfully building and maintaining trusting and consultative relationships with internal stakeholders and candidates
• Proficiency with Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter, and AI tools to source, engage, and analyze pipelines.
  
  

You embrace AI as a core recruiting skill. You’ve used AI tools to source, engage, or analyze talent pipelines, and you can show how they’ve improved your efficiency and impact. You’re curious, data-driven, and eager to retool traditional workflows with automation — while preserving the human touch that defines a great candidate experience.
