Talent Acquisition Partner (US & EU Markets) | A-Players
A-Players
Remote | Full-time | B2+ English | Base ($$1000-2000) + Commission
This is not a classic recruiter role.
As a Talent Partner at A-Players, you act as a business-facing hiring operator. You own client relationships end-to-end and are responsible for delivering high-impact hires that shape companies — not just fill headcount. You work in an AI-native way to analyze roles, markets, and candidates beyond surface signals and make high-quality hiring decisions.
You’ll work directly with founders and C-level leaders, run complex searches across Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Leadership, and represent A-Players as a trusted hiring partner.
What You’ll Own
🔹 Full-cycle client ownership
Lead client kickoffs and clarify hiring goals, success criteria, and constraints
Design hiring strategies, timelines, and scorecards
Run weekly syncs with founders and hiring managers
Own offer strategy, negotiation, and closing
🔹 High-impact searches
Work on 3–4 active roles at a time, prioritizing quality over volume
Hire across Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Leadership
-
Typical roles include:
Founding / Senior Engineers (US/EU)
Heads of Marketing, Growth, Product (US/EU)
Senior CSMs, Designers, VC Analysts, CEOs (US/EU)
🔹 Candidate experience & judgment
Conduct deep, structured interviews focused on skills, mindset, and A-Player traits
Assess beyond job titles — motivation, decision-making, ownership, growth trajectory
Guide candidates from first contact through offer and onboarding
Who This Role Is For
You’ll thrive here if you:
Have a proven track record recruiting in US and/or EU markets
Are confident working directly with founders and senior stakeholders
Can manage multiple searches without losing depth or quality
Think in terms of business impact, not just recruitment mechanics
Are highly self-directed and comfortable owning outcomes end-to-end
Care deeply about hiring done right — structured, thoughtful, and ethical
Work in an AI-native way: you already use AI tools in your daily workflow (research, market mapping, candidate analysis, communication) or actively experiment with them to think faster, go deeper, and make better hiring decisions
Requirements
Strong English (Upper-Intermediate or higher, written and spoken)
Ability to overlap 2–4 hours with US time zones
Full-time availability (this is not a freelance or side role)
