Senior G&A Recruiter

Overview

BetterUp is hiring a Senior Business Recruiter for its People & Community team. The role focuses on senior hiring across G&A areas such as Finance, Legal, and People, with room to support other parts of the business as priorities change. You will act as a strategic advisor to leadership while running searches end to end, from individual contributor roles to executive-level hiring. The position calls for someone who can move comfortably between senior stakeholder conversations and hands-on sourcing work, and who can stay effective in complex, changing situations.

BetterUp describes its culture as mission-driven, inventive, and intense, with an emphasis on meaningful work and a highly engaged employee experience. The company also highlights that its candidate journey is designed to feel different from a typical hiring process.

The available hub locations are Austin, Texas; New York City, New York; San Francisco, California; and the Washington, DC metro area.
