You will tackle niche, complex searches by employing strategic and innovative sourcing and networking techniques, staying abreast of talent and market trends across the broader banking, financial services, and fintech industries, and serve as an embedded partner to these teams.

  • Develop a deep understanding of Mercury’s values, brand, products, and business model
  • Work closely with hiring managers and interviewers to design interview panels, proactively network within the industry, source strong candidates who meet the needs of the business, and close candidates by positioning Mercury as an innovative fintech leader in the GRC space
  • Shape what success looks like on a newly formed recruiting team, and hold a high culture and hiring bar to ensure we’re able to attract and retain best-in-class GRC talent
  • Position yourself as a true strategic partner to the GRC teams by keeping abreast of fintech and banking industry trends and talent market, and building a deep understanding of the U.S. banking and financial regulatory environment
  • Be a strong advocate for building inclusive, diverse teams across all levels and GRC skill sets, and guide hiring teams towards unbiased hiring decisions
  • Identify and engage top talent through both passive and active channels, and deliver an exceptional candidate experience as an embodiment of Mercury’s culture and values
  • Have the opportunity to lead 0 > 1 recruiting efforts as Mercury expands our business and products, which will require hiring GRC professionals with niche skill sets and regulatory knowledge
  • Be comfortable working with data and interpreting the story it tells into actionable insights, business recommendations, performance improvements, and recruiting process enhancements

You should:

  • Have 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience; 7+ years of experience overall in a talent, people, or HR-equivalent function
  • Have deep experience recruiting for niche business roles across mid-level ICs to senior-level leadership, ideally for Risk, Compliance, Audit, or Legal teams
  • Have experience influencing and partnering with senior-level and Executive-level stakeholders and hiring managers, and be a trusted hiring partner and strategic advisor to their teams
  • Have strong sourcing and networking skills, with the ability to engage the appropriate talent proactively for longer-term hiring needs and/or when working on confidential searches
  • Enjoy building diverse, inclusive, and high-performing teams, and lead with deep empathy, kindness, and care for the work you do 
  • Enjoy creative problem solving and working within difficult constraints, having the ability to effectively prioritize your work against business demands, and optimize your workflow through automation and improvements to process
  • Have strong written and verbal communication skills that demonstrate clarity and precision
  • Have a strong sense of urgency and ownership for the work you do, and be willing to help support hiring efforts across other areas of the business, as needed
  • Have experience working with recruiting tools such as LinkedIn Recruiter, Greenhouse, Covey, Ashby, Metaview, or similar
