Remote · Latin America · $2,000-$2,800 USD/month · Full-time · Independent Contractor · Monday to Friday · 9 AM-6 PM CT

Why this role exists

Our client is a fast-growing, pre-vetted talent network that helps US companies hire senior Latin American and South African talent. They are bootstrapped, profitable and moving fast toward an aggressive placement goal, with a selective network known for fast time-to-hire and high retention. They need a recruiter who closes searches relentlessly and runs a clean, disciplined process without hand-holding.

What you'll own

• Active searches end to end, from intake to placement, with fast time-to-hire
• Proactive sourcing with LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search and outbound to passive candidates, not just inbound or ATS triage
• Screening for skill, English level and fit, and strong candidate slates for each client need
• Relentless follow-up with candidates and clients, with escalation the moment a client goes quiet
• A clean, current ATS and pipeline, with accurate statuses and next steps
• AI screening tools that help you move faster without dropping quality
• Weekly targets on candidates screened, slates delivered and interviews booked
• The onboarding handoff, so placements start well and stay

Why this is interesting

• You own your pipeline end to end, with little structure and real autonomy
• AI screening tools are part of how the job is done
• You help build the repeatable recruiting playbook the team scales on

What we're looking for

• A proven track record in full-cycle recruiting, staffing or headhunting for US or international clients
• A startup mindset: you hit your numbers without constant hand-holding
• Disciplined on follow-up and CRM hygiene. Nothing falls through the cracks
• Outgoing, goal-driven, autonomous and coachable
• English C1 or higher, written and spoken, tested live

Bonus

• An ATS like RecruitCRM
• Recruiting for the US nearshore or offshore staffing market
• AI-native in daily work (Claude, Apollo, Clay or equivalent)

What success looks like

First 90 days

You are fully into the systems, the pipeline is clean and you have taken over the active searches. You consistently hit weekly targets for candidates screened, slates delivered and interviews booked, and you show mastery of the ATS, screening tools and qualification criteria.

Ongoing

You become a reliable engine of placements that fill fast and retain. You keep every search moving with disciplined follow-up and a clean pipeline, and you help build the repeatable recruiting playbook the team scales on.
