We are reinventing global trade.

Flexport helps more than 10,000 clients and suppliers lead all aspects of their supply chain operations. Started in 2013, we've raised over $300M from investors that include the Founders Fund, Google Ventures, First Round Capital, Bloomberg Beta, Y Combinator, & Wells Fargo.

With offices on three continents, our team is as global as our client base and we’re excited to continue building a product and service they love. Wherever you are, whichever role you play, you’re guaranteed to share your day with committed, encouraging, and resourceful team members.

What you'll do:

  • Source passive talent for Flexport roles;
  • Develop an understanding of Flexport’s products, technology, market position, and employer value proposition to successfully identify and engage passive talent;
  • Work hand-in-hand with recruiting partners and hiring leaders to devise and execute sourcing plans;
  • Create sourcing best practices for employee referral, event, and industry hiring;
  • Regularly over-communicate information such as candidate pipelines, recruiting funnel metrics, and performance data to internal stakeholders;
  • Build Flexport’s recruiting brand from the ground up.

What you’ll need:

  • BA/BS degree;
  • 1+ year experience sourcing preferably at a search firm;
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills, with a penchant for data;
  • Basic awareness of modern software development tools and tech stacks;
  • A strong desire to build an organization, have fun, grow, and succeed!

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
