About the Opportunity
You will own GTM hiring across the revenue org - AEs, CSMs, SDRs, Solutions Engineers, and GTM leadership as we scale. You will work closely with our VPs of Sales and CRO to build a rigorous, high-taste hiring process that produces a revenue team capable of executing our revenue targets this year and beyond.
This is a build role. You are joining a talent function being built from scratch. You will help define what great GTM hiring looks like at Laurel and own it.
What You Will Own
Full-cycle GTM recruiting: AEs, CSMs, SDRs, Solutions Engineers, and sales leadership
10-15 active requisitions at any time; 6-10 hires per quarter as baseline
Outbound sourcing - you know where great enterprise SaaS sellers come from and you go get them
Building relationships with top-performing GTM talent before they are looking
Hiring manager partnerships with Sales and CS leadership: intake rigour, structured assessment, calibration
Closing candidates: equity story, growth path, mission - making the case compellingly
Multi-geography hiring across New York, San Francisco, London, and Los Angeles
What We Are Looking For
Must-have
5+ years full-cycle GTM recruiting at a high-growth enterprise SaaS company
Deep knowledge of what a great enterprise AE looks like - you have hired them, assessed them, and been wrong about them in the past
Experience hiring across the GTM stack: AEs, CSMs, Solutions Engineers, and sales leadership
Strong outbound instincts and a genuine talent network in enterprise SaaS
Structured interviewer and coach - you run calibration sessions, not just debrief calls
Track record closing candidates who had competitive offers
Will set you apart
You have recruited for companies selling into law firms, financial services, or high growth SAAS companies
You understand the difference between an SDR-to-AE motion and an enterprise direct and partner first motion
Strong opinions about comp structures, equity messaging, and closing against public-company offers
Experience hiring GTM talent across multiple geographies simultaneously
You have rebuilt or improved a broken GTM hiring process, not just filled reqs
How We Work
AI-first. We automate outreach personalisation and pipeline review before asking for headcount to cover them.
Unreasonable Hospitality. The candidate experience is employer brand. We design moments that make finalists feel genuinely seen - not just evaluated.
Data-driven. Pipeline health, source quality, time-to-offer, offer acceptance rate. Decisions made with data.
Tour of Duty. Explicit about what this role can become. We invest in your growth and expect you to invest in ours.
