The Company is based in Arizona, United States. Therefore, this job is remote.

Job Title

Senior International Sales Recruiter (Remote)

(Focus: South Africa, South America, Middle East)

About the Role

We're looking for a senior, recruiting-heavy HR professional who specializes in hiring top-performing sales talent for fully remote roles.

You'll own the full recruitment lifecycle for sales positions—from attracting candidates with paid ads, to screening, interviewing, assessing, and delivering a tight shortlist of top performers for final interviews with the founder.

This is a remote, contractor role with flexible hours, working primarily with candidates in South Africa, South America, and the Middle East.

Key Responsibilities

Talent Sourcing & Advertising

• Create, post, and manage job ads on platforms like Indeed, LinkedIn, and other region-specific job boards.
• Set up and optimize paid job campaigns / sponsored job posts to maximize the flow of qualified applicants.
• Proactively source candidates via LinkedIn, databases, and outreach for hard-to-fill roles.

Screening & Interviewing

• Review high volumes of resumes and quickly identify strong sales profiles.
• Conduct initial video/phone screenings to evaluate:
• Sales experience (inbound, outbound, B2B/B2C, etc.)
• Communication skills and professionalism
• English proficiency and ability to work with a US-based team
• Run structured behavioral and competency-based interviews tailored to our sales roles.

Assessments & Shortlisting

• Coordinate and administer personality and skills assessments (sales aptitude, DISC, cognitive, role-play, etc.).
• Evaluate assessment results and interview notes to narrow down to a shortlist of the strongest candidates.
• Present well-organized candidate summaries (pros/cons, comp expectations, notice periods, key strengths/red flags) to the founder.

Process & Coordination

• Maintain an organized pipeline / tracking system (ATS or spreadsheet) for all candidates and stages.
• Schedule and coordinate final interviews between top candidates and the founder.
• Collect and verify references when requested.
• Help refine job descriptions, scorecards, and interview questions over time to improve hiring quality.
• Provide simple weekly reports: number of applicants, interviews conducted, candidates in pipeline, and hires.

Requirements

• 5+ years of hands-on recruiting experience with a strong focus on sales roles (inside sales, outbound, closers, SDRs, BDRs, account executives, etc.).
• Proven experience hiring remotely and/or hiring across multiple countries or regions.
• Demonstrated success filling full-time roles (not just freelance/gig roles).
• Comfortable running and optimizing paid job ads / sponsored posts on platforms like Indeed, LinkedIn, or similar.
• Strong experience with:
• Reviewing large volumes of resumes
• Conducting structured interviews
• Shortlisting and presenting candidates to hiring managers
• Familiarity with personality and skills assessments and how to interpret results.
• Excellent written and spoken English.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to own the process end-to-end with minimal supervision.
• Reliable internet, quiet workspace, and ability to work across time zones aligned with a US-based business.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience recruiting for remote-first companies.
• Experience hiring in South Africa, South America, or the Middle East specifically.
• Background in HR/People Ops (onboarding, contracts, basic compliance) is a plus, but this role is primarily recruitment-focused.
• Experience working with founders / small, entrepreneurial companies.

What We Offer

• Fully remote, contractor position with flexible hours.
• Competitive hourly rate (commensurate with experience).
• Opportunity to build and refine a world-class remote sales team from the ground up.
• Direct collaboration with the founder—fast decisions, minimal bureaucracy.
