Recruiter

We're looking for a Recruiter to own end-to-end hiring for a portfolio of open roles across the business. This is a full-cycle recruiting role — from intake to offer — for someone who can run a high volume of searches independently, build strong relationships with hiring managers, and bring structure and speed to how we hire.

Language Requirement: Fluent Arabic and English (C1 proficiency in English) — both are essential for this role

• 
  Run recruitment for 5-6 concurrent open roles: sourcing, screening, interview scheduling and moving candidates through to offer.
  
• 
  Join intake meetings with hiring managers to understand role needs, must-haves and the interview process.
  
• 
  Source actively on LinkedIn and other channels to build healthy, diverse pipelines, not just rely on inbound applications.
  
• 
  Run first-round screening calls and write clear, structured candidate summaries for hiring managers.
  
• 
  Coordinate interviews and feedback so processes keep moving without delays.
  
• 
  Give every candidate a fast, respectful and transparent experience, whatever the outcome.
  
• 
  Keep the ATS (Lever) accurate and up to date: pipeline stages, notes and candidate status.
  
• Contribute to employer branding to strengthen Soum’s presence as an employer of choice in the region.

• 
  At least 1 year of recruitment experience, in-house or agency. Exposure to startups, scale-ups or tech/marketplace businesses is a plus.
  
• 
  Hands-on sourcing experience and comfort reaching out to passive candidates.
  
• 
  Familiarity with the Saudi/MENA hiring market is a strong plus.
  
• 
  Experience with an ATS (Lever preferred).
  
• 
  Strong organization and follow-through: you can juggle several processes without dropping details.
  
• 
  Clear, confident communication with candidates and hiring managers.
  
• 
  Fluent English required; Arabic required for close collaboration with the Riyadh team.
  
• Comfortable working remotely, eager to learn, with a strong bias for action.

• 
  Open roles filled with strong, culture-aligned hires.
  
• 
  Hiring managers find you responsive, organized, and easy to work with.
  
• 
  Pipeline data in Lever is always accurate, with no surprises in the weekly hiring review.
  
• Candidates consistently describe the process as respectful and well run, whatever the outcome.

●Real ownership over your recruiting pipeline from day one.

●A People function that's actively building out career ladders, leveling, and process — you'll help shape it, not just execute it.

●A culture that values speed, autonomy, and results over hours logged.
