Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career. ## About the team The Recruiting Strategy & Enablement Team is dedicated to enhancing the quality and efficiency of Stripe's Recruiting function.

We are looking for a talented project manager to join our team. ## What you’ll do As a Project Manager on the Recruiting Strategy & Enablement team, you'll own strategic programs end-to-end — from scoping and stakeholder alignment through execution, enablement, and measurement. You'll partner closely with Global Recruiting Leads, Hiring Managers, and cross-functional teams to ship initiatives that improve recruiting quality, efficiency, and compliance at a global scale. Day-to-day, you'll balance long-running portfolio work with fast-moving priorities that require you to ramp quickly and execute with minimal oversight. ## Responsibilities - Own and steer strategic programs' objectives and key result areas, including tracking and reporting metrics and overall program management - Lead change management initiatives within our recruiting teams and collaborate with partners to facilitate seamless transitions - Drive enablement strategies that support program adoption, including comms plans, FAQs, and stakeholder-facing resources - Identify and implement operational improvements across recruiting programs and processes, maximizing their effectiveness and efficiency - Design training guides and educational materials to enhance the skill set of recruiters - Collaborate closely with Global Recruiting Leads and Hiring Managers to pinpoint and execute high-priority initiatives that elevate our recruiting efforts - Manage portfolio-level governance: run SteerCos, track workstream DRIs, synthesize progress, and report to leadership on program health and outcomes - Navigate global regulatory and compliance requirements that impact recruiting processes (e.g., pay transparency, pre-employment checks, data privacy), partnering with legal, HR compliance, and People Partners - Absorb emerging work as priorities shift — such as hiring sprints, organizational transitions, or rapid-turnaround projects — with minimal ramp time ## Who you are We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role.
