About The Position

The VP of Recruiting needs a right hand. Someone who can run the operational core of a recruiting function while also driving the strategic projects that help to drive Flock's continued growth. This role is part chief of staff, part systems thinker, part executor — you'll keep the machine running while also building the next version of it. You'll also help define how AI reshapes the way we recruit. Not as a novelty, but as a genuine lever for speed, quality, and scale. If you thrive at the intersection of strategy and getting things done, this is your role.
