You've led a small team and still like doing some of the work yourself. You like building from scratch. There's no playbook here yet, and you'll write it with the VP of Talent and the wider leadership team.

Process

• Create data driven reporting to accurately give global leaders appropriate and digestible insight into the state of hiring for their organization
• Own job posting strategy and job description standards

Systems & Tools

• Manage all tools and systems used by the recruiting team, ensuring effective workflows and appropriate usage and operational health
• Be the subject matter expert for our ATS, Ashby, maintaining data integrity and consistent ATS usage across all users
• Evaluate and introduce new tools and AI-driven automation to reduce manual work and give recruiters more time with candidates and hiring teams

Enablement

• Provide regular enablement to the recruiting team on usage and changes to tools, processes and workflows, driving transformation as automation and efficiencies are realized
• In partnership with our Marketing team and in alignment with our brand, enable all recruiters to share the Delinea story to the external talent marketplace

What you’ll bring

• 5+ years proven success in a recruiting or talent acquisition role, with 3+ years in a recruiting operations or recruiting programs role, ideally at a high growth tech or SaaS company
• Administrative experience with a modern ATS, Ashby strongly preferred (Greenhouse, Lever, or similar tools will be considered)
• A track record of building or redesigning recruiting processes and programs, such as referral program, internal mobility, candidate experience
• Strong aptitude with AI and automation
• Strong analytical skills, with experience building recruiting dashboards and using data to tell a story
• Proven project and change management skills, with the ability to scope work, align stakeholders, and land change in partnership with cross functional peers and leaders
• Experience partnering with People Operations, HRIS, and IT on integrations, data flows, and compliance
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, comfortable training and presenting to various audiences
• Global experience preferred
