Recruiter

YAMU Media is looking for a Talent Recruiter located outside of the United States to join our team. The role is open to people located in Latin America, Asia or Africa.

Job title: Recruiter

Job Overview

YAMU Media is a performance marketing agency working with B2B SaaS, ecommerce, and local businesses across the US market. We are a remote-first team of people who move fast, hold high standards, and care about building something worth working at.

We are looking for a mid-level recruiter to own hiring execution across YAMU. This is not a coordinator role. You will be the person who sources, screens, and moves candidates through the process with structure and speed, reporting directly to the Head of People. You will typically work across three to four open roles at once, all within marketing and paid media. You are the one who protects the pipeline by making sure only candidates who actually meet the bar get to the hiring manager, and that every candidate who touches YAMU leaves with a good impression of us, regardless of outcome.

Key Responsibilities

You will own sourcing across platforms including LinkedIn, Upwork, and our ATS, running both inbound screening and outbound outreach depending on the role. You will conduct screening calls that go beyond logistics: your job is to gather the information the hiring manager actually needs, flag misalignments early, and make a clear recommendation. You will coordinate technical tests and schedule interviews, making sure every step of the process is clean and no candidate falls through the cracks.

A big part of this role is calibration. You will work closely with the hiring manager to understand what each role actually requires, and you will make sure every candidate you advance has been evaluated against the full job description and the technical expectations set by the hiring manager. You will not pass someone through because they seemed nice. You will not advance someone because they interviewed well but can't do the work.

You will also take candidate experience seriously. That means timely updates, clear communication about next steps, and closing every candidate loop, including the ones who don't move forward. You will track pipeline activity and report on the status of open roles so that leadership always has visibility without having to ask.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of total recruiting experience, with a minimum of 2 years focused on marketing, paid media, or digital agency roles
• Experience hiring for the US market, with international recruiting exposure in Latam, Asia, or Africa
• Familiarity with AI tools used in recruiting workflows (HireEZ, SeekOut, ChatGPT/Claude for sourcing and screening support, AI-assisted ATS features)
• Prior experience working in a startup environment, comfortable with fast-paced, evolving priorities
• Demonstrated experience in end-to-end recruitment, including sourcing, screening, interviewing, and offer management
• Strong skills in candidate sourcing through job boards, social platforms, networking, boolean search, and talent pipeline development
• Proficiency with Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), recruitment CRMs, and basic analytics or reporting tools. (BullHorn, Ashby, Greenhouse, Workable or any ATS)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to conduct structured, unbiased interviews
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment, manage multiple requisitions, and prioritize effectively
• Familiarity with SaaS, digital marketing, or tech-enabled service environments is highly beneficial
• Commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and experience implementing fair, non-discriminatory hiring practices
• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, Psychology, or related field, or equivalent practical experience

Your Attributes

You have a structured process and you follow it. You do not wait to be told something is wrong. If you notice a gap between what a hiring manager is asking for and the candidates coming in, you flag it before it becomes a problem. You are thorough without being slow. You know the difference between screening and selling, and you do not oversell roles to candidates in order to keep the pipeline full.

You are genuinely curious about people. You ask follow-up questions when an answer feels thin, and you know the difference between a real example and a framework answer. You take candidate experience personally because you understand that every interaction with a candidate is a reflection of the company you represent.

You are comfortable working across multiple roles at once without losing the thread on any of them. You do not need a lot of oversight to stay organized, but you communicate proactively and keep the people you report to informed.

We Offer You

Salary: discussable based on experience. Salaries at YAMU are uncapped and are periodically reviewed and increased based on performance and market conditions.

You will work directly at a remote-first company that moves fast and values doing things right.

This is a role where you will see the full picture of how a high-performance team gets built, and your work will have a direct impact on the quality of every team we grow.

Become part of a team of smart, open-minded people with individual qualities

You'll be a part of a rapidly growing company, with plentiful opportunities to grow into leadership roles. And you'll face a steep learning curve & daily data science, technological, and business challenges.
