Hiring: Recruiting Operations Lead Company: Beacon Software Location: San Francisco, CA Job Posted Time: 2026-09-10 10:33:33 Target Skills & Keywords : AI About the job Experience: •5+ years in recruiting operations, HR technology, or business systems administration, with real ownership of an ATS (Ashby strongly preferred). Required Skills: •Own Ashby. Configuration, workflows, integrations, and data hygiene are yours end-to-end, not a shared responsibility with whoever has time. •Build the reporting layer. Funnel metrics, time-to-fill, source effectiveness, and hiring velocity, dashboards recruiters, executives, GMs, and hiring leadership use to make decisions. •Process design. Turn how Beacon hires today into documented, repeatable workflows that hold up as the team and portfolio grow. •Coordination backbone. Partner closely with our Recruiting Coordinator to keep scheduling, candidate communications, and interview logistics clean, especially with multiple portco searches running at once. •AI & automation. Identify and deploy tooling that reduces admin burden across candidate screening and scheduling. This might branch out to other areas including sourcing, and post interview decisions and offer workflows. •Candidate experience. Standardize the candidate journey across corporate and portco searches with a consistently high bar. •Cross-functional glue. Work with VP of Talent and Finance on headcount planning and with legal/People partners on offer letters, background checks, and clean handoffs. •Data hygiene at holdco scale. Every portfolio company's reqs, candidates, and hires need to roll up cleanly into one picture. You build that structure now, not after it's already messy. Qualifications: •Comfort building process from scratch, not optimizing an existing one. Beacon's talent function is new; you'll be writing the manual, not editing it. •A strong analytical mindset. You can build a dashboard, but more importantly, you know which metric actually changes a decision. •Systems thinking. You can map how a change in one workflow ripples through downstream reporting and integrations before you make it. •Comfort with ambiguity in a fast-moving, small-team, multi-entity environment. No two portfolio companies operate the same way. •Excellent cross-functional communication; you'll work directly with the Talent, Department Heads/Managers, Finance, and People partners across a holding company structure. •Bachelor's degree, or additional years of experience in lieu. •Our Values at Beacon Software •Humility: We acknowledge that the path to getting to the right answer involves being wrong along the way. We have strong beliefs which are weakly held. We actively seek new ideas and believe we can learn from anyone at any time. •Honesty: We are truth seeking in our approach to business problems. Business is a repeat game and we believe that human relationships generate alpha. We understand that trust is earned over a lifetime and can be lost in an instant. •Hunger: We play to win. We hold ourselves to high standards and will not be outworked. We take pride in having a deep sense of responsibility to ourselves, each other, our partners, and our customers. We believe to whom much is given much is expected. Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
