Our Story Starts with People Like You

The two founders, best friends, were running businesses that needed great talent fast. So, they started building remote teams across countries like the Philippines, Colombia, and India. Not only did it work, it thrived. They realized that talent isn't limited by geography. With today's technology and high-speed internet, we're able to build high-performing global teams that support businesses across the U.S. So ClearDesk was born.

Today, ClearDesk helps U.S. businesses grow by building world-class remote teams. We don't just connect talent; we manage the entire experience, from recruiting to retention. And while we help clients thrive, we also stay deeply committed to helping our remote team members build real, lasting careers that support their lives and their families.

That's where you come in.

The Role: Corporate Recruiter

Imagine being the person behind every successful hire at ClearDesk. You're not just filling positions. You're helping build the teams that power our growth. You'll connect talented professionals with opportunities across ClearDesk, build strong relationships with candidates and stakeholders, and help ensure we bring in people who have the skills, mindset, and values to thrive here.

As a Corporate Recruiter at ClearDesk, you'll work internally to help source, screen, and select remote talent for a variety of U.S.-based clients, with a strong focus on niche, specialized, and executive-level hiring. You'll work closely with our team leads and hiring managers, understand hiring needs, and use your judgment to identify and engage the right talent.

Unlike a primarily volume-focused recruiting role, this position places greater emphasis on headhunting, executive search, proactive candidate outreach, and building pipelines for hard-to-fill roles. Your recruitment work will be focused on niche hiring and proactive sourcing, requiring you to confidently engage both active and passive candidates.

From job boards and social media to referrals, LinkedIn, talent research, and cold outreach, you'll use every tool available to find great people, build meaningful candidate relationships, and keep our hiring standards high.

• Use ATS tools to manage pipelines, organize candidate data, document recruitment activity, and keep the process moving
• Manage sensitive searches (e.g., backfills for existing leaders, restructures, or confidential replacements) with appropriate discretion.
• Guide hiring managers through structured, bias-aware evaluation of leadership competencies such as team management, cross-functional influence, and strategic judgment.
• Communicate updates clearly with internal teams and take initiative to flag delays, blockers, or challenges in the hiring process
• Provide clear and structured candidate endorsements and recommendations to hiring stakeholders
• Help refine job descriptions, outreach templates, sourcing strategies, and hiring workflows
• Stay up to date on trends in executive search, recruitment, sourcing platforms, AI tools, and global hiring best practices
• Use AI tools and recruitment technology to improve sourcing, research, outreach, screening, and overall productivity
• Track and report on recruiting metrics (time-to-fill, pipeline conversion, offer-acceptance rate) by requisition type and level
• Contribute to a positive, collaborative team environment and demonstrate a willingness to support teammates when needed
• Represent ClearDesk's culture and employer brand professionally throughout the candidate experience
• Ensure hiring practices comply with applicable employment laws and internal equal-opportunity standards
