• Conduct structured screening and candidate-assessment calls.
• Evaluate experience, achievements, motivation, compensation, notice period and overall fit.
• Prepare concise and factual candidate summaries for clients.
• Manage interview coordination, feedback, candidate engagement and follow-ups.
• Support compensation discussions, offer closure and joining management.
• Maintain accurate candidate and mandate information in the CRM.
• Build reusable talent pools and long-term candidate relationships.
• Provide clients with structured pipeline updates and market feedback.
• Independently manage multiple mandates and take ownership of closures.

Requirements:

• 3 - 6 years of recruitment or executive-search experience.
• Experience handling mid-senior, leadership or specialised roles.
• Strong sourcing, market-mapping and candidate-assessment capabilities.
• Excellent written and verbal communication.
• Confidence interacting with senior candidates, founders and business leaders.
• Strong ownership, attention to detail and follow-through.
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment.
• Disciplined in maintaining CRM records and recruitment data.
• Experience hiring across VC ecosystem, manufacturing, clean energy, deeptech or leadership roles would be preferred.
• The role offers direct exposure to founders, investors and senior leaders, along with the opportunity to help build a high-quality boutique search firm.
