Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This G+A Recruiter role sits at a point many SaaS companies reach after product and go to market momentum, when building durable business functions becomes the next constraint. The remit spans core “company building” hires across finance, legal, and internal recruiting, which are foundational in subscription businesses where forecasting, compliance, and operational rigor increasingly shape execution.
For a SaaS career, full cycle G+A recruiting offers a broad view of how teams scale beyond engineering and sales. It builds pattern recognition across multiple functions, strengthens intake and calibration skills with hiring managers, and deepens understanding of how interview design affects quality of hire over time. The sourcing emphasis also reflects a common SaaS reality: differentiated talent pipelines matter as categories get crowded and roles become harder to fill through inbound alone.
This position is best suited to a recruiter who prefers hands-on ownership and enjoys shaping process, not just running it. It will appeal to someone comfortable switching between high-volume execution and higher-leverage work like refining assessments and partnering with leadership. It also fits professionals who value in-person collaboration and want their craft to influence how a SaaS organization defines “great” across non-technical teams.

G+A Recruiter @ Clay
We are looking for a Recruiter to handle full-cycle talent acquisition with a focus on G+A roles. You’ll be hands on with sourcing, interview design, and closing. You’ll partner closely with hiring managers on both the “who” and the “why” of building out their teams.
What You’ll Do
Lead high-volume, full-cycle recruiting for G+A roles at all levels - think roles like Accounting Manager, Legal Counsel, Recruiting, but done the Clay way.
Work with teammates to ensure a delightful candidate experience, from the first conversation through each of your candidates’ first day.
Sourcing - lots of it! Clay has a strong pitch when it comes to revenue and growth, but we’re still in the early stages of getting the word out. And you’ll figure out new ways to source by using Clay, sourcing tools, and referral campaigns.
Collaborating with leadership on strategic aspects of recruiting. Success in this role isn’t just about filling requisitions, but also about quality of hire and designing effective interview processes.
What You'll Bring
You have a stellar track record across 5+ years of business/G+A recruiting experience.
You are in NYC and are excited about an in-person office environment (think 4-5 days per week). You’ll be joining a team with a vibrant and creative culture, but you’ll also be a part of shaping that as Clay grows.
You’re excited to fold your creativity into your craft as a recruiter, and help Clay do recruiting differently.
You’re an effective communicator in both written and spoken contexts.
You’re an excellent interviewer, with an eye for talent that will thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic startup—not just the most pedigreed applicant!
You prioritize candidate experience, and have helped shaped that in your previous roles.
