Who Is AppSumo?

AppSumo is the tech powerhouse you’ve probably never heard of. We’ve helped launch MailChimp, Evernote, and Dropbox (to name a few) — over 2,000 startups have come through our doors and gone on to become household names in software. (Learn more about us here!)

Our motto? The doors of entrepreneurship should be open for everyone. And we are committed to connecting our community with the tools and customers they need to create a life they love. With thousands of successful product launches and over a million entrepreneurs served, we’re looking to take AppSumo to the next level. And we know we can’t do that without the right people in place.

That’s where you, the Director of Recruiting, come in.

About This Role

At its core, this role is about attracting top-tier talent to join our team. The primary focus of the Director of Recruiting is leading our team of high-performing internal recruiters to success.

Responsibilities

• Overseeing, developing, and scaling an existing team of recruiters, hiring across all departments within the organization
• Implementing KPIs and reporting key recruitment metrics to internal leadership
• Designing and delivering comprehensive interviewer training for hiring managers
• Attracting talent by developing recruiting strategies that evolve and improve AppSumo’s brand and visibility in key recruiting markets
• Creating and documenting scalable recruiting processes to drive consistency in quality
• Partnering with department heads to provide insight and leadership on how to build out their teams 

Required Skills

• 7+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition or in an applicable operations role with minimum 2+ years of management experience
• Recruiting experience across departments (Marketing, Sales, Product/Engineering, Operations)
• Ability to develop and implement successful recruitment and selection strategies in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
• Strong operational expertise with experience building out processes that scale across all recruiting efforts
• Adaptable mindset that can confidently rescope and shift focus to align with evolving needs of the organization

Preferences

• Experience in a SaaS startup environment
• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent work experience) 

In the first three months of this role, success means implementing the processes to ensure that we’ve hired our two top priority roles, which are the VP of Product and VP of Marketing

Why work for us?

We provide a competitive compensation and benefits package. We have moved to a hybrid workplace where you can choose your best working environment.

When at the office, you will be equipped with a standing desk, a monitor, and any other tech you need to feel productive. Oh, and you can bring your dog to work. We're animal lovers here!

In addition, we offer a stocked fridge, any snacks you want, and (once we’re allowed outside again) two all-expenses-paid company trips with the team to the local Sheraton—just kidding: last year, we went to an all-inclusive resort in Costa Rica; you can check it out here.

At AppSumo, we treat all of our teammates like adults and trust that you'll get it done when you have something to do. If you need to run an errand, hit the gym, or meet a friend for lunch, you’re encouraged to do so. You can work from home as often as you need to, and you’ll have unlimited vacation days to go on adventures. (Everyone says it, but we mean it: We expect you to take time for yourself.)

We’re committed to crafting a diverse, encouraging, and collaborative working environment—every person we bring onto the team helps cultivate a culture that we’re proud of.
