Recruitment Consultant

About Ethea

Ethea Solutions is a boutique executive search firm. We hire the commercial teams tech companies need when they expand into Asia-Pacific: sales leaders, account executives, sales engineers, partnerships and customer success.

Our clients are mostly pre-IPO and PE-backed tech companies from the US and Europe. Around 90% are AI companies selling into regulated industries. Often we're making their first hire in a new country.

We cover Singapore, Australia, Korea, Japan, Greater China and Southeast Asia. We only approach passive candidates, and our founder runs every search personally.

The role

This is a remote role. Our team is spread across Vietnam, with a small team in Hanoi. You'll have real flexibility over where and how you work. We do need you based in Hanoi, as that's where we hold our monthly team meetings and where our other consultant is based.

The focus is the candidate side. Our founder handles all business development and client relationships. You'll work alongside the founder on live searches from day one, finding and engaging the right people. Any client contact will be within a live process.

What you'll do

• Map target companies and identify the right people for each search.
• Run outreach to senior candidates across APAC through LinkedIn Recruiter, email and phone.
• Screen candidates, write up shortlists and manage candidates through interview and offer.
• Build real expertise in tech GTM talent: who's good, where they sit, what they earn.
• Help improve how we work, from tools to research methods to process.

Who we're looking for

We're open to two profiles. You might have 1 to 2 years in recruitment and be clearly on the way up. Or you might have more experience and want to move from local recruitment into international executive search.

Either way, you'll need:

• At least 1 year in recruitment, agency or in-house. Headhunting experience is a strong plus.
• Proven sourcing skills. You can find people who aren't on job boards.
• Fluent written and spoken English, and the confidence to call a VP of Sales in Sydney or Seoul.
• The discipline to work remotely without being chased.
• To be based in Hanoi, or willing to relocate.
• Full working rights in Vietnam. We're unable to sponsor a visa for this role.

Korean, Japanese or Mandarin is a bonus.

What you'll get

• Close mentorship from a founder with 15+ years in APAC tech search.
• Senior, international search work early in your career.
• A largely remote role with strong flexibility.
• Competitive base salary plus commission on placements.
• Share options for top performers.
• Responsibility that grows with your results.
