Job Description

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
