Job Description
- **Location**: Singapore (Hybrid)
- **Company Overview**:
- Persevio is an AI-native recruitment startup headquartered in Singapore, dedicated to making high-quality hiring faster and more efficient. We are building a future where technology handles the repetitive, high-volume tasks of recruitment, allowing consultants to focus on deep human judgment and relationship building.
- Our proprietary AI agents—Percy (for candidates) and Viona (for employers)—support our team by managing top-of-funnel sourcing and initial screening. As an early-stage, externally funded company, we offer a high-autonomy environment where you aren't just following a process, but helping to build the standard for the next generation of recruitment.
- **Role Overview**:
- We are looking for a high-performance Principal Recruitment Consultant to drive our commercial growth. In this role, you will lead a 360 desk, combining traditional recruitment expertise with our AI-native toolkit to deliver exceptional results. You will own the entire recruitment lifecycle—from business development to final placement—leveraging technology to maximize your commercial impact.
- **Key Responsibilities**:
- **Drive Full-Cycle Business Development:** Proactively identify, prospect, and sign new client mandates to build a high-value commercial pipeline.
- **Manage End-to-End Recruitment Delivery:** Own the qualification and execution of job assignments. While our AI tools support top-of-funnel sourcing and screening, you remain the ultimate owner of candidate quality and delivery.
- **Optimize the Recruitment Workflow:** Integrate Persevio’s proprietary AI tools into your daily process to automate repetitive tasks. By delegating sourcing and initial screening to the technology, you will focus your time on high-value human activities: client consulting, candidate qualifying, and closing.
- **Stakeholder Management & Closing:** Lead complex negotiations and manage the end-of-funnel process, including offer management and senior stakeholder influence, ensuring high-quality outcomes for both clients and candidates.
- **Commercial Strategy Alignment:** Partner with leadership to refine our go-to-market approach and demonstrate the value of an AI-augmented recruitment model to the Singapore market.
- **Requirements**:
- **Minimum/Core Requirements:**
- Demonstrated success in an agency "hunter" role, with a proven track record of winning new client mandates and generating consistent revenue independently.
- Proficiency in Advanced Professional English is required to effectively lead complex commercial negotiations and influence senior-level stakeholders.
- Proven ability to qualify job assignments to ensure focus on high-priority, fillable, and profitable mandates.
- An entrepreneurial mindset with the resilience to build a desk in a fast-paced, high-autonomy startup environment.
- **Preferred/Bonus Requirements:**
- Strong existing professional network within the Singapore market to accelerate business development efforts.
- A "tech-forward" approach and a willingness to adapt traditional recruitment habits to achieve higher scale through AI.
- Experience in full-cycle 360 recruitment across professional or technology sectors.
- **Why you should be interested**:
- **Exceptional Earning Potential:** By removing the time-consuming manual sourcing bottleneck, we empower you to hit elite billing tiers that are often unreachable in traditional, manual firms.
- **High-Impact Autonomy:** Own your desk and your strategy. You will work directly with the CEO in a results-oriented culture that values outcomes over activity.
- **Innovation at the Core:** Be at the forefront of the industry's evolution, using proprietary technology to solve the core inefficiencies of traditional recruitment.
- **Growth Opportunities:** As we scale, you will have the opportunity to shape the commercial direction of the business and grow alongside the company.
- Ready to use the latest technology to do the best work of your career? We’d love to hear from you.
