This is a critical role with a global reach, and plenty of opportunity to make waves and build something amazing from the ground up.

What you'll do

• Hire A - players: you will work with the co-founders and the executive team to calibrate roles and seniorities, hire the best talent in the world, and create hiring playbooks

• High EQ, being able to understand what drives candidates and assess cultural fit. You will sell the DolarApp mission to them, and get them excited about the company and our vision. You value candidates highly and provide them with a world-class experience throughout the process

• Excellent organisation skills, being able to manage candidates funnel with maximum attention to detail and due diligence. We believe in providing an excellent experience to candidates, holding their hand through the process and providing actionable feedback

• Resourcefulness, ability to leverage LinkedIn as well as the network of the current team to source potential candidates

• Ability to work well as part of a team, a relentless drive and a track record as proven closer
