About The Position

Facelove is a fast-growing e-commerce beauty brand serving thousands of customers worldwide every day. Our mission is to help people preserve and enhance their natural beauty through innovative products and meaningful brand experiences.

This role splits into three core areas: Outbound Search, Screening and Assessment, and Advising and Closing. The Head of Recruitment will manage every senior and C-level search from Role Pack to signed offer, construct target lists from competitor brands, and conduct direct outreach. Most hires will not come from inbound applications. The role requires maintaining a pipeline of at least five screened, qualified candidates in process and ensuring the next required head is already a known name in the ATS before the seat officially opens. The position involves evaluating verified spend levels, in-house versus agency backgrounds, platform depth, creative volume, and claimed results. Detailed assessments of each requirement, evidence heard, verified numbers, compensation, availability, and explicit doubts are expected. The role also requires spotting inflated spend figures, contradicting metrics, overlapping employment dates, and portfolio misrepresentations before the final round. Additionally, the Head of Recruitment will provide accurate US market compensation data with named comparables, raise warnings early in writing if a requirement is contradictory or overly restrictive, draft offers, handle counter-offers and notice periods, and secure signatures. Seamless interview scheduling across US and CET time zones is also a key responsibility.

Requirements

• 5+ Years Recruiting Senior Talent and proven experience sourcing senior growth and creative talent at DTC or performance-marketing companies via agencies, executive search, or embedded recruiting with a placement target.
• Personally closed Head of Paid Media, Growth Lead, or Creative Strategist roles (named with company and year).
• At least one C-level or head-of search run completely to a signed offer.
• Deep established network in US DTC growth and creative talent that produces immediate names in week one.
• Proven ability to map a competitor brand's growth team from scratch and execute targeted outreach.
• Deep understanding of ROAS vs. MER, creative testing volume, hook rates, in-house vs. agency scaling, and the ability to evaluate creative media (video, static, UGC).
• Ability to write concise, evidence-based candidate assessments that founders can review in under five minutes.
• Proven ability to spot inflated spend figures, mismatched metrics, and portfolio inconsistencies.
• Current knowledge of US market compensation for growth leaders and senior media buyers.
• Ability to work 40 hours weekly on US business hours with a minimum 3-hour daily overlap with CET (09:00 to 18:00), backed by a reliable connection and quiet workspace.

Nice To Haves

• Experience hiring for beauty, skincare, wellness DTC brands, or brands targeting women over 40.
• Experience hiring across both US and European markets.
• Experience building or running structured, scorecard-based interview processes.
• Power-user level mastery of LinkedIn Recruiter (Boolean searches, saved searches, high-converting InMail sequences).
• Prior experience hiring for founder-led companies.

Responsibilities

• Manage every senior and C-level search (Head of Paid Media, senior buyers, retention/lifecycle, e-commerce, CRO, and subsequent heads) from Role Pack to signed offer.
• Construct target lists from competitor brands and their growth teams, followed by direct outreach.
• Keep at least five screened, qualified candidates in process from week two of a search, and never fewer than three while it is open.
• Ensure the next required head is already a known name in your ATS before the seat officially opens.
• Evaluate verified spend levels, in-house versus agency backgrounds, platform depth, creative volume, and whether claimed results survive follow-up scrutiny.
• Detail each requirement, heard evidence, verified numbers, compensation, availability, and your explicit doubts—sharp enough that leadership doesn't need to re-interview.
• Spot inflated spend figures, contradicting metrics, overlapping employment dates, and portfolio misrepresentations before the final round.
• Judge video, static, and UGC content alongside traditional performance dashboards.
• Provide accurate US market compensation data with named comparables before sourcing begins, preventing post-decline surprises.
• Raise warnings early in writing if a requirement is contradictory or overly restrictive, complete with evidence and proposed trade-offs.
• Draft offers, handle counter-offers and notice periods, and secure signatures on predicted terms.
• Ensure every candidate in the ATS has an active stage, next action, and date; manage seamless interview scheduling across US and CET time zones.

Benefits

• Fully paid, all-inclusive yearly team trip somewhere in the world.
• Full membership at a local gym of your choice.
• A Facelove care package every 3 months for you or your loved ones, plus every new product launch at release.
