Paxos is on a mission to enable the movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky - supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.

As a regulated blockchain infrastructure company, we use technology to tokenize, custody, trade, and settle assets for enterprise clients like PayPal, Novi, Bank of America, and Interactive Brokers. Paxos is a top-funded blockchain company, with more than $500 million in total funding from leading investors like OakHC/FT, Founders Fund, PayPal Ventures, and Declaration Partners. Together, we empower today’s financial leaders to build a more open, trusted economy.

The Executive Recruiter will be responsible for owning and executing executive level searches across the business. Qualified candidates will be well-versed in all aspects of an executive search including creative candidate sourcing, candidate generation and development, client management, complex offer negotiation and agency management. If you are seeking a role that will allow you to own a significant piece of a hyper-scaling enterprise, then this role is for you.

As an Executive Recruiter, you'll get to:

  • Deliver a delightful experience to executive hiring managers and their prospects
  • Fully own and lead complex searches with a cross-functional set of stakeholders
  • Conduct deep research to map target companies and top talent for Paxos
  • Create unique and robust search strategies to identify and attract the best and brightest
  • Bring creative solutions and deep experience with Diversity and Inclusion practices
  • Develop innovative ways to raise the bar on how Paxos recruits leadership talent
  • Influence and advise executive through data driven communications
  • Build out talent networks by tapping into knowledgeable industry sources to develop an on-going pool of candidates
  • Confidently and eloquently lead search meetings and updates
  • Provide strategic guidance and advice in a true partnership with executive leadership

Your experience should include:

  • 7+ years of corporate and/or search firm recruiting experience with a focus on executive level candidate generation in a complex and competitive industry

You might also be:

  • A curious, constant learner - you can learn new technology and product domains, and then quickly understand and apply this knowledge into effective search strategies
  • An expert communicator; a compelling communicator who will be able to effectively engage the attention of executive stakeholders, and articulate complex arguments in a polished and professional manner
  • Self-assured; not easily thrown, able to think on your feet and work on highly confidential searches with senior leadership
