Sunday – Thursday
Work Timings:
9:00 AM – 6:00 PM (Saudi Arabian Time Zone)
Role Overview:
We're looking for a Senior Recruiter to own end-to-end hiring for a portfolio of open roles across the business. This is a full-cycle recruiting role — from intake to offer — for someone who can run a high volume of searches independently, build strong relationships with hiring managers, and bring structure and speed to how we hire.
What You'll Do
●
Own full-cycle recruitment
for 5–8+ concurrent open roles — sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer negotiation, and closing
●
Partner with hiring managers
to scope roles accurately, define success profiles, and design interview processes suited to role seniority and function
●
Source proactively
across LinkedIn and other channels to build strong, diverse candidate pipelines — not just relying on inbound applications
●
Run structured, high-quality interviews
and provide hiring managers with clear, well-substantiated candidate assessments
●
Manage the candidate experience
end-to-end, ensuring every candidate — hired or not — has a fast, respectful, transparent process
●
Keep the ATS (Lever) clean and current
— accurate pipeline stages, notes, and reporting so hiring status is always visible
●
Support employer branding
efforts to strengthen Soum's presence as an employer of choice regionally
Requirements
●
2–3 years of full-cycle recruitment experience
, ideally including in-house recruiting for a startup, scale-up, or marketplace/tech business
●
Proven track record hiring across multiple functions (e.g., Tech, Operations, Commercial) independently or with light oversight
●
Strong sourcing skills — confident building pipelines from scratch, not just managing inbound
●
Experience recruiting for the Saudi/MENA market, or strong familiarity with regional hiring dynamics, is a strong plus
●
Hands-on ATS experience (Lever preferred)
●
Solid stakeholder management — comfortable advising hiring managers, pushing back where needed, and driving process with minimal supervision
●
Fluent English required & Arabic is a requirement given close collaboration with the Riyadh team
●
Comfortable working remotely and autonomously, with strong bias to action
What Success Looks Like
●
Roles filled with strong, culture-aligned hires — not just fast, but right
●
Hiring managers trust you to run their searches with minimal hand-holding
●
Clean, current pipeline data at all times — no surprises in the weekly hiring review
●
Candidates consistently describe the process as respectful and well-run, regardless of outcome
Why Join Soum
●
Real ownership over your recruiting pipeline from day one
●
Direct exposure to a fast-moving leadership team
●
A People function that's actively building out career ladders, leveling, and process — you'll help shape it, not just execute it
●
A culture that values speed, autonomy, and results over hours logged
