[Hiring] International Recruiter @Blacksmith Agency

Role Description

We are looking for a Recruiter with ~2+ years of full-cycle experience who is ready to take the next big step in their career. You aren't just a "resume screener"; you are a brand ambassador and a talent scout.

You’ll own the hiring process from start to finish, partnering directly with our executive team to find top-tier talent across Sales, Design, Development, and Strategy. This is a role for someone who has a "recruiter’s instinct," loves the chase of a passive candidate, and wants to work in an environment where their impact is visible every single day.

• Own the Cycle: Manage everything from the initial intake call with leadership to the final offer letter.
• Global Sourcing: Find and engage talent across the U.S., LATAM, India, and beyond. You know where the best people hang out (and it’s not always on LinkedIn).
• High-Touch Experience: Ensure every candidate, whether they get the job or not, has a seamless, respectful, and "Blacksmith-standard" experience.
• Cultural Vetting: Evaluate candidates for more than just skills. You’ll be the first line of defense in ensuring every hire is a cultural and performance fit.
• Pipeline Building: Maintain a "warm bench" of freelancers and full-time talent so we can move fast when a new project kicks off.
• Keep us Organised: Maintain a clean, data-driven pipeline in our ATS (Ashby/Lever) and keep hiring managers in the loop.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience in full-cycle recruiting, ideally in a tech, digital, or creative agency environment.
• A high-accountability mindset; you deliver results because you take pride in your work.
• Global perspective; comfortable navigating different time zones and cultural nuances in hiring.
• Tech-savvy; at home in an ATS and love a streamlined, automated workflow.
• Excellent communicator; able to write a cold outreach email that gets a response and lead an interview that leaves a candidate impressed.

Bonus Points

• You have a background in a design or creative field.
• You have experience building or refining hiring "playbooks."

Benefits

• Full autonomy; we trust your judgment and you’ll have the space to run your process.
• Direct access; you’ll work closely with a responsive, decisive leadership team without layers of bureaucracy.
• Flexibility; work from anywhere. As long as the results are there, we don't watch the clock.
• Impact; you will literally be the person who builds the future of Blacksmith.
