YOUR ROLE
You're the first real impression a candidate gets of Zip. We're looking for a Recruiting Coordinator who owns both the interviewer and candidate experience end to end, and who genuinely loves being the person who makes a chaotic process feel effortless.
This is a career-building seat, not a support seat. You'll build processes from the ground up, lead candidate experience projects, and work shoulder to shoulder with recruiters and hiring managers to shape how Zip hires. If you're organized enough that nothing slips, warm enough that candidates remember you fondly, and curious enough to keep making the process better, this role is built for you. You'll report to our Head of Recruiting Operations.
YOU WILL
- Coordinate a high volume of interviews and keep recruiting calendars running like clockwork
- Partner closely with recruiters and hiring managers to design a candidate experience people actually talk about
- Guide candidates and internal partners through the interview process with clear, timely communication
- Maintain and improve our internal systems and tools (we use Ashby), always looking for a better way to do things
- Anticipate needs and solve last-minute problems on the fly, then build the longer-term fix so they don't happen again
- Contribute to projects spanning candidate sourcing, reporting, referral program development, candidate surveys, and more
- Handle confidential information with integrity and discretion
QUALIFICATIONS
- 1+ years in a recruiting coordinator, recruiting operations, or similar role in a fast-paced environment
- Strong desire to build a career in recruiting or HR
- Strong sense of ownership
- Organized, reliable, responsive, and detail-oriented (nothing falls through the cracks!)
- Ability to connect and effectively communicate with people at all levels
- Ability to stay calm and execute in a fast-moving environment
- Customer-oriented while being positive
- Ability to manage multiple projects at the same time
- Exceptional communication skills
- Process-oriented and enjoys continuously improving things
NICE TO HAVES
- Experience in a start-up environment
- Experience using and optimizing Ashby
- Comfortable using AI tools to work more efficiently
The salary range for this role is $75,000-$90,000. The salary for this position is determined based on a variety of job-related factors that may include location, relevant experience, education, or particular skills and expertise.
