Job Description

The Role

As a Senior Recruiter, you’ll partner with hiring Leads to scale our engineering organization—ensuring we attract, hire, and retain top talent while delivering an exceptional candidate experience. Operating as a key driver within our global team, you’ll bring a growth mindset, be data-driven, and leverage your proven experience in strong execution towards goals and deliverables. You will act as a trusted role model for excellent business partnership, helping build the cross-functional squads and tribes that power our global infrastructure.

Your Mission

  • Strategic Ownership: Partner directly with business stakeholders to design and own recruitment strategies, leveraging your deep market and domain knowledge to hire quality candidates at the right time and location.

  • End-to-End Delivery: Autonomously manage the full candidate lifecycle from sourcing to closing, tackling complex hiring challenges along the way.

  • Candidate Storytelling: Craft a compelling narrative so candidates receive a best-in-class experience aligned with Wise values—ensuring every candidate feels valued, even if the right role comes up later down the line.

  • Data-Driven & Scalable Process: Use data to back hiring recommendations, retro processes, unblock hiring bottlenecks, and continuously optimize for automation and global scalability.

  • Long-Term Impact: Proactively identify and solve complex problems while driving recruitment initiatives with a 6+ month horizon.

 

Your Skills & Attributes

  • Domain & Value Evaluation: Proven track record of hiring top talent across Software Engineering (Front-End, Back-End, Mobile, Platform, Leadership). You look beyond resumes to spot candidates who deeply align with our culture and values.

  • Agility & Adaptability: Highly autonomous self-starter comfortable navigating ambiguity and fast-changing workloads. You actively adopt emerging HR tech, automate processes, and work smart to keep things moving at pace.

  • Creative Problem Solver: Resilient and curious. Tricky roles and unfamiliar tech stacks don't slow you down—they inspire you to test new sourcing channels and try fresh approaches.

  • Data-Driven & Strategic: You systematically use data to uncover hiring blockers, optimize scalable processes, and back up your hiring recommendations.

  • Communication & Collaboration: Expert stakeholder manager who uses storytelling and data to build trust, flex across audiences, and foster partnerships across the entire organization.

  • Growth Mindset: Champion a "learn-it-all" approach, role modeling continuous improvement and inspiring the team around you.

 

We’re people without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. So if you’re passionate about learning new things and keen to join our mission, you’ll fit right in.

Also, where and what you studied isn't important to us. If you’ve got great experience, the right skills for the role and you’re great at articulating your thinking, we’d like to hear from you.

And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we’d especially love to hear from you if you’re from an under-represented demographic.
