About MyHQ

myHQ is India's largest commercial real estate and flex workspace marketplace. Founded in 2016 by IIT Delhi graduates, we give 50,000+ enterprises- from early-stage startups to large MNCs and GCCs, access to 10,000+ workspace options across 10+ cities, covering coworking, virtual offices, meeting rooms, and managed offices.

In five years, we've grown 30x and closed two back-to-back profitable years. Backed by ANAROCK Group and WeWork India, we're building toward ₹1,000Cr, and hiring the team that gets us there.

We believe where you work shapes what you build. Our mission is to make the right workspace accessible to every business in India, and increasingly, beyond it. With expansion already underway in Dubai and London, we're building something with a genuinely large surface area.

For the people who join us, that translates to real opportunity. We've paid out over ₹10Cr in performance bonuses in the last couple of years, and we've watched team members buy homes, build wealth, and grow into roles that didn't exist when they joined. The next five years will be harder than the last five, and significantly more rewarding.

Our Culture

We Look For People With The Following Characteristics

• Humble and hardworking: Two traits we hire for and live by; the best people here are the ones who show up fully and let the work speak
• High ownership: You'll own real work from day one, not just assist on it; the buck stops with you, and leadership backs you up
• Bias for action: We move fast, learn faster, and don't overthink; experimentation is encouraged, paralysis is not
• Open and direct: Smart people, honest conversations, no politics; feedback flows both ways and that's how we get better

Our Products

• Day Passes: On demand access to coworking spaces across India, booked by the day
• Meeting Rooms: Hourly bookings across 2,000+ venues in 10+ cities
• Virtual Offices: Registered business address with GST support and mail handling
• Managed Offices: Fully fitted, ready-to-move offices with no long-term lock-in
• Enterprise Leasing: End-to-end commercial leasing for large teams, handled by our Assisted Marketplace team
• MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibition): Venue sourcing and management for corporate events, trainings, off-sites, and conferences

About The Role

myHQ is targeting to go to ₹1,000Cr in five years. That means hiring faster, better, and smarter and someone who needs to own that machine. You will build and lead the TA function: set the strategy, manage a team of 6-8, define the operating model, and personally close senior and critical hires. This is not a pure people-manager role, you will still close senior hires yourself.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and own the annual hiring plan in partnership with the CEO and vertical heads
• Lead and develop a team of TA Associates, Senior Associates, Managers
• Personally drive senior hiring: team leads, vertical heads, and critical ICs
• Design the TA operating model: ATS, SLAs, funnel metrics, interview process standards
• Own employer branding: careers page, LinkedIn presence, campus and industry partnerships
• Manage agency relationships; hold them accountable to quality and timelines
• Report hiring health to leadership monthly: fills, time-to-hire, quality-of-hire, early attrition

Requirements

• 8-12 years in TA, with at least 2-3 years leading a team at a growth-stage company
• Track record of shifting TA from reactive (filling mandates) to proactive (anticipating them)
• Strong data, analytical skills and bend towards AI
• Commercially sharp: understands business context, not just hiring briefs
• Able to motivate and lead a team of 7-10 spread across multiple geographies.
• Strong at both strategy and execution: the team is lean; you will do both
• Experience hiring across functions: sales, tech, operations, finance
• Familiarity with using an ATS (Keka, etc) and the ability to master it fast
• Excellent communication, presentation skills
• Great at stakeholder management and prioritization

Requirements:
