About the role
Role: Recruiter
Location: Pakistan (Remote)
Work Week: Sunday – Thursday
Work Timings: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM (Saudi Arabian Time Zone)
Role Overview:
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 English (C1 proficiency in English) — essential for this role
What You'll Do • 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.
Requirements • 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 • Comfortable working remotely, eager to learn, with a strong bias for action.
What Success Looks Like • 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.
Why Join Soum
● 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.
