[Hiring] Sales Recruiter @Motive

Role Description

As a Sales Recruiter, you will play a strategic role in building high-impact teams by attracting, engaging, and closing top talent. This is not a traditional recruiting role; we’re looking for someone who operates as a “sales-first recruiter,” capable of influencing decisions, telling compelling stories, and positioning opportunities effectively. The ideal candidate thrives in high-volume hiring environments, understands tech/SaaS talent dynamics, and is passionate about delivering an exceptional candidate experience.

In this role, you will gain international exposure, working with global stakeholders while being part of a highly structured HR function and cross-collaborative teams. Motive also offers strong growth opportunities, both within Talent Acquisition and across cross-functional teams, enabling long-term career progression.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with hiring managers to understand role requirements, team needs, and hiring priorities
• Own end-to-end, high-volume recruitment (sourcing, screening, scheduling, interviewing, and closing)
• Build and maintain strong pipelines of active and passive candidates
• Act as a brand ambassador, effectively “selling” the company and opportunities to candidates
• Drive candidate engagement through strong communication and storytelling
• Consistently meet and exceed recruiting KPIs (pipeline health, time-to-fill, offer acceptance)
• Leverage ATS tools (Greenhouse) and data to optimize hiring processes
• Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure a seamless hiring experience

Qualifications

• Experience: 3+ years in high-volume recruiting within SaaS/tech; background in sales or customer success is strongly preferred (retail/manufacturing profiles less relevant)
• Skillset: Excellent communication, storytelling, and stakeholder management skills; strong relationship-building and influencing ability
• Technical: Hands-on experience with ATS (Greenhouse preferred) and familiarity with US/Go-to-Market hiring
• Experience with LinkedIn Recruiter and prospecting via LinkedIn and other platforms preferred

Behavioral Traits

• Self-motivated, proactive “go-getter” with high ownership
• Strong stress management and ability to perform under pressure
• Confident in communication, including public speaking and candidate interactions

Education

• Strong academic background preferred (GPA 3.5–3.7)
