Job Description
About Masarna
Masarna is an embedded recruiting partner for startups and growing companies that need senior recruiting execution without hiring a full-time internal recruiter.
We help companies run sourcing, screening, candidate follow-up, interview coordination, and weekly hiring updates inside their existing ATS, Slack, inbox, and calendar.
We are not a traditional staffing agency, job board, or recruiter marketplace. Masarna acts like an extension of the client’s hiring team.

Masarna is looking for a Client Acquisition Partner to help bring in new client relationships.
In this role, you will identify companies that need recruiting support, start conversations with decision-makers, qualify opportunities, and help introduce Masarna’s embedded recruiting model to the right buyers.
The ideal client is a startup, founder-led company, or growing business with open roles but no strong internal recruiting function.
This is a commission-based opportunity with uncapped earning potential.
