New York City, New York

Inspira Education Group is one of the fastest-growing edtech startups in the US. We started with a simple mission to democratize access to high-quality coaching so that every student in the world has an equal opportunity to access the best opportunities.

As the world's leading network of top admissions coaches in medical, legal, business, and college studies, we're building software and services in one place—disrupting long-entrenched application processes with products and experiences that strive to provide an equal platform for candidates from diverse backgrounds worldwide.

As one of the fastest-growing edtech firms in the world, we are backed by some of the leading venture capital firms and investors in the world, including Zeev Ventures, Quiet Capital, Craft Ventures and Jeff Fluhr (Founder of Stubhub).

The Role

Most companies treat sourcing as a support function: post a job, run some Boolean strings, wait. We're building something different - a sourcing engine that operates like a high-performing sales team, where every search is a targeting problem and every hire teaches us something we systematize for the next one.

The candidates who move the needle for us aren't applying - they're not checking job boards. Finding them takes real search craft. This role is for someone who's already spent years getting good at exactly that, and is ready to own it end-to-end: partnering with hiring managers, running the hardest searches yourself, and building the playbooks that let the function scale beyond you.

This role requires in-office attendance 5 days a week (NYC - Gramercy).

What You'll Do

• Design and run advanced Boolean/X-ray searches across LinkedIn Recruiter and other platforms to fill hard, niche, or senior roles
• Build sharp Ideal Candidate Profiles with hiring managers, going beyond the job description
• Own sourcing pipelines across multiple concurrent roles without letting quality slip
• Run high-volume, personalized outreach and sharpen messaging based on response data
• Screen candidates before handoff to the hiring team
• Document playbooks/SOPs
• Track sourcing metrics (response rates, conversion, time-to-fill) and act on them
• Flag when a search strategy isn't working and rebuild it, rather than just running more volume

What We're Looking For

• 3-5 years of recruiting and sourcing experience with deep Boolean/LinkedIn Recruiter expertise
• Track record filling hard or senior roles through proactive sourcing, not just managing inbound
• Sourcing experience across multiple functions, not just one specialty
• Excellent written communication - outreach that gets responses from people who weren't looking
• Systems thinking - you document as you go and build toward repeatable process
• Comfort owning multiple concurrent searches with real autonomy

Why You'll Love Inspira

• Amazing people with a great vision and values
• Mission-driven team culture focused on student success
• Your work directly impacts the lives and careers of students across the globe
• Health, dental, and vision insurance, base plans 100% employer paid
• Pre-tax benefits (FSA, DCFSA, HSA, Commuter)
• Flexible paid time off (PTO) and paid holidays
• 401(k) with company match

The targeted pay for this role is: $110-120k ($90-100k base, 10-20k bonus). Actual salary is dependent upon several factors, including the applicant's experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity among our team and geographic location. The pay ratio between base pay and target incentive will be finalized at the offer. The pay range is subject to the discretion of the Company.
