Founder & Leadership Support

  • Take over project execution tasks to reduce founder operational load
  • Provide leadership with clear, concise updates and escalate blockers when needed
  • Ensure founders step in only when strategic decisions are required

Internal Process Optimization

  • Build or assist with automated dashboards, weekly reviews, and reporting systems
  • Identify gaps in recruitment workflows and propose improvements
  • Support optimization of ATS, outreach tools, sourcing workflows, and internal systems

Cross-Team Collaboration

  • Work closely with Talent Matching, Sourcing, and Recruitment Ops
