Job description

Our Mission

Tamatar Talent helps mission-driven, boldly ambitious startups - the ones trying to solve problems that matter, the ones who should win - build their internal marketing, brand, and creative teams. We're an early-stage recruitment marketing firm, and we're building this from zero.

We're looking for someone to be that zero-to-one partner with us: someone who can recruit for marketing roles with real market fluency, real hustle, and real judgment - someone who enables founders to build a much stronger brand by finding them the right marketing talent.

What you'll do

• Talk to founders and brand leaders directly - understand not just what they're asking for, but what they actually need, by asking the right questions and reading between the lines.
• Scout and reach out to candidates on LinkedIn, at volume - this is a manual, high-touch process, and the more organized you are (and the smarter you use AI to help), the further you'll get.
• Use your own judgment to call whether someone's a real fit - for the role and for the business behind it. You'll need to put yourself in the founder's shoes.
• Shortlist candidates, manage the pipeline, and keep communication instant - same-day replies to clients and candidates, always. No one waits two days to hear back from you.
• Close the gap between what a client wants and what a candidate wants - get both sides to yes, without overselling either one.
• Schedule and prep everyone for calls, interviews, and conversations - meticulously.
• Build relationships for the long term, not just the placement - a candidate who isn't right for one role today might be exactly right for something six months from now.
• Help build the processes and systems for how this team recruits - from the ground up, alongside us.

Who we're looking for

Marketing hiring experience. You've done non-tech hiring before, mostly for brand, marketing, or GTM roles. You know what "good" looks like in a marketing hire, not just what a job description says.

Real marketing fluency. You understand the jargon that comes with the territory, B2B included, and you can tell the difference between what a B2B tech marketer does versus a consumer brand-side marketer, an agency-side digital marketer, and an SEO. You keep track of where the marketing landscape is moving, not just where it's been.

A consultative seller, not a pusher. You can convince a brand why a candidate is right, and a candidate why a role is right - but only because you've actually figured out what they need. Sales, to us, means counseling: asking the right question at the right time, never talking someone into the wrong thing.

AI-fluent. You already use tools like Claude and Cowork to move faster, and you want to keep getting better at that.

A real networker. You're a people person who doesn't run out of energy after talking to 50 people in a day. You want to build a strong network among marketers and brand builders - and you genuinely understand what marketing does for a brand, not just how to source for it.

Early in your career, but strong and ambitious. You want to build something real from the ground up, not just execute a job description.

Organized, prompt, and meticulous. You read between the lines in a conversation instead of just replying to it. You keep things in order because you genuinely care about being organized, not because someone's checking.

Curious about how businesses are built. You want to learn how teams, brands, and companies come together, and you see every client relationship as a chance to learn that.

A fast learner who solves before you escape. In the age of AI, when you're stuck, your first call is to AI and to yourself, not to whatever on the team is closest - you don't disrupt the whole team's flow before you've tried to figure it out. You'll get plenty of feedback when you get things wrong, and that's fine - you're not expected to be scared of mistakes. Own them, be able to explain the call you made and why, and use that to grow faster.

The practical bits

• Location: Hybrid, based out of Bangalore.
• Engagement: Full-time preferred; open to the right person on a contract or freelance basis.
• Timeline: We’re in no rush. We’re looking for the right person, not the fastest hire.
