Every year, tens of thousands of people apply to work at One Acre Fund. Behind each of those applications is a person waiting to hear back, and behind each open role is a team waiting for the help. Your job is to serve those hiring teams well, which means running your recruitment roles diligently, going out and finding outstanding talent rather than waiting for it to arrive, and placing the right people in the roles that are open.
We are looking for someone with three or more years of experience who has handled a lot of moving pieces at once and kept them all on track. You have owned several workstreams in parallel, and none of them quietly fell apart. You have managed or coordinated other people, set expectations for them, and followed through when those expectations were not met. You are comfortable with senior stakeholders, so you can take a leader’s priority, turn it into a plan, keep them updated without being asked, and come back with results. You meet people easily and stay in touch with them, which matters here because finding great candidates is as much outreach as it is screening.
Most importantly, you are a problem-solver who takes feedback well. Our hiring processes change often, and the people who do best at One Acre Fund treat a correction as useful information and adjust quickly.
Experience as a recruiter or talent acquisition specialist is helpful but not essential. We encourage you to apply if your background is in consulting, business development, project management, strategy and operations, or anywhere else you have had to keep many moving parts on track for people who were counting on you.
