What the job involves
- Pallet is hiring a Business Recruiter, a rare role with true 0→1 ownership. As we scale rapidly and prepare for our next stage of growth, this role will build the entire Business recruiting function from the ground up
- You’ll partner directly with our Head of Talent, Head of Operations, and CEO/Founder to shape our hiring strategy, define processes, and bring in the exceptional talent that will fuel our next phase
- This is not a “support” function — recruiting at Pallet is a strategic partner. You’ll be deeply embedded in leadership conversations, understand the business drivers behind each role, and hire the people who will move the company forward
- With aggressive revenue targets, a fast-growing market, and a massive opportunity ahead, the impact you’ll have on the business will be immediate and long-lasting
- You’d be an early stage Business Recruiter at a fast-growing AI company, owning everything from 0 to 1 — sourcing strategy, interview design, tooling, enablement, and overall process
- You’ll work directly with the founder and have exposure to exec hiring from day one
- As we scale, this role has a clear path to leading additional Business recruiters or eventually running the entire business recruiting function
- You’ll shape our Business talent brand, help drive events, and build content that attracts world-class revenue talent
- You’ll also have real budget and leadership backing to execute, with a team that treats hiring as a core advantage
- Own full-cycle recruiting across Product, Sales, Marketing, and Business roles
- Build a repeatable multi-channel sourcing engine for high-quality pipeline generation
- Close top-tier talent in a highly competitive AI market through creative strategies and strong candidate relationships
- Create Interview Playbooks and scale them into a consistent, high-signal process
- Understand how hiring ties directly to business goals and maintain a strong grasp of the talent landscape Pallet operates in
- Partner closely with hiring managers to align recruiting priorities with company objectives
- Develop and amplify Pallet’s sales talent brand — from events to community engagement, in line with our culture
- Join a well-funded, high-growth startup on the path to IPO ($50M raised, 700% revenue growth in 2 years, targeting a $12T market)
- Work directly with Grace Turner (Head of Talent) — building the recruiting function from scratch in a high-impact, highly visible role
- Partner closely with GTM, Product, and Business leaders to shape the future of Pallet
- Help transform a massive industry and scale toward a $10B+ business
- Build and manage pipelines across 10+ concurrent roles with strong operational discipline
- Build scalable, data-driven sourcing engines across channels (LinkedIn, Gem, Juicebox, referrals)
