ABOUT THE IDEAL CANDIDATE: Candidates that have specific financial services experience, with priority given for any experience recruiting for fund services roles (fund administrators, accountants).

This candidate should be comfortable with mid-high volume, rather than niche recruiting (for example, hiring 6-8 of the same accounting roles at the same time). This candidate will work directly with the hiring managers and should be able to be highly professional, organized, resourceful and willing to make recommendations instead of constantly waiting for direction.

ABOUT THE ROLE: We're seeking a full ‑ cycle Contract Recruiter to support our team to building pipelines and hire Investment Services accounting professionals (private equity/credit, hedge funds, real assets, alternative investments, fund accounting, administration). You will partner with business leaders and peer recruiters to define talent strategies, maintain pipelines for recurring roles, source niche profiles, and deliver an equitable, positive hiring experience.

What you'll do

• Own full ‑ cycle recruiting for investment services roles (Fund Accountant, Fund Admin, Senior Fund Accountant, Financial Reporting Analyst/Manager, Investor Allocation, CLO Deal/Admin), from strategy discussion through offer acceptance.
• Source talent using multichannel strategies (LinkedIn, expert communities, Boolean/X ‑ ray, referrals, graduates, alumni, etc.) and develop proactive silver ‑ medalist and evergreen pipelines.
• Guide hiring leaders on market availability, compensation signals, interview design, and decision quality.
• Manage candidate experience with timely communication, prep/coaching, and high ‑ touch closing strategies.
• Operate the process in Workday (or ATS of record): requisition hygiene, job postings, interview logistics, offer workflow, and onboarding hand ‑ offs; maintain data integrity.
• Partner cross ‑ functionally with HR, Compensation, Talent Intelligence, and business operations across Investment Services

What you'll bring

• 3 years full ‑ cycle recruiting (or sourcing) in financial services—preferred experience with recruiting investment services talent.
• Ability to translate job requirements into validated competencies and structured interview guides aligned to role profiles and job families.
• Proficiency with ATS (e.g., Workday), CRM, LinkedIn Recruiter, advanced Boolean/search operators, and other sourcing strategies.
• Strong stakeholder management, executive communication, data ‑ driven decisioning, and project management skills.
• Commitment to candidate experience, inclusion, and regulatory compliance.

Key performance indicators (KPIs)

• Time ‑ to ‑ accept and time ‑ to ‑ start; pipeline health (active prospects, interviews/week).
• Slate diversity and interview compliance; passthrough from screen → panel → offer.
• Quality ‑ of ‑ hire proxy metrics (manager satisfaction, interview to hire ratios).
• Data integrity in ATS and adherence to hiring governance.
