Recruiting Manager - Amazon & eCommerce Talent

GNO Partners is building a growth consultancy focused on Amazon brands, and this role is the first dedicated recruiting hire. You will create and run the recruiting function from the ground up, owning the end-to-end funnel and the metrics that go with it.

This position is designed for a recruiter who can operate independently and translate process into measurable outcomes, from sourcing through offers and ATS reporting. You will work directly with the partners and help set priorities, KPIs, and hiring approach as the function takes shape.

What You’ll Own

• Kick off each role: define the job description, sourcing strategy, screening approach, interview loop design, and offer process.
• Build target lists and run LinkedIn and email sequences to engage senior Amazon operators, including people not actively looking to move.
• Screen 20–30 candidates per month, delivering a shortlist with a written recommendation rather than forwarding CVs.
• Set up and maintain ATS stages, scorecards, templates, automations, and reporting, ensuring data quality supports decision-making.
• Brief agencies and headhunters effectively, hold them to SLAs, and phase them out where internal execution is stronger.
• Maintain a standing pool of pre-qualified, warm Amazon talent so searches are not starting from zero.

Requirements

• 4+ years in recruiting, including at least two years running full-cycle roles yourself (not sourcing support or coordination).
• Comfort talking through your funnel using numbers such as reply rates, stage conversion, time-to-hire, and offer-accept.
• Outbound experience strong enough to build lists from scratch and write sequences that generated replies from senior professionals who were not job-hunting.
• Experience owning an ATS (not just using one); you can configure a modern ATS, with Breezy as a plus.
• Excellent written English, with outreach that reads as natural and personal.
• Ability to function as the recruiting function without an HR department above you.

Tools and Technologies

• LinkedIn Recruiter, Apollo, Clay, Boolean and x-ray search, AI sourcing
• Breezy ATS

Compensation

• Base: $3,500–$5,000/month depending on experience and location (Remote).
• Per-hire bonus: paid on every hire that passes 90 days, scaled by the seniority of the seat.
• Quarterly performance bonus: tied to agreed KPIs including time-to-hire, retention, cost-per-hire, and shortlist quality.
• On-target earnings: roughly $50,000–$120,000/year.
• Also includes a real hiring budget and tooling to do the work.

Strong Plus

• Experience hiring in Amazon, e-commerce, performance marketing, or digital agencies, including roles such as PPC managers, brand managers, marketplace ops, and agency consultants.
• Agency or headhunting background.
• Fluency with sourcing tooling: LinkedIn Recruiter, Apollo, Clay, Boolean and x-ray search, and AI sourcing.
• Working hours with solid overlap with Central European Time and US Eastern.

Why This Role

• At a larger company, you might own only a slice of a process created by others; here you will design it.
• You report directly to the partners and help set KPIs with them.
• No HR team, no coordinator, and no escalation chain above you.

How to Apply

• A written questionnaire is attached to the application, and every answer is reviewed.
• A short video questionnaire is part of the process.
• A practical exercise is part of the process.
• Interviews are with the partners.
• The process runs about five weeks.
• The team replies to every applicant.
