  • Build a network of candidates by engaging passive talent through proactive market research and in-depth assessment of candidates, demonstrating ability to anticipate hiring manager preferences.

  • Be an active member of intake meetings with hiring managers and recruiters.

  • Help initiate creative and scalable changes to our existing sourcing strategy.

  • Be the face of Mapbox to our amazing candidates. Maintain professional and courteous communication with candidates to foster long-term relationships and build equity in our employer brand across our European markets.

  • A love for Data. You enjoy making sense of the trends and using the insights to better your process to make it more efficient.

  • Ability to thrive autonomously in an ambiguous and dynamic environment, embrace new ideas and problem solve.

  • Excellent hiring manager (HM) management skills, with a proven ability to collaborate, influence, and provide consultative support throughout the recruitment process.
