Job Description

Director, Global Talent Acquisition

GiveDirectly

• Manage and coach the team (currently two managers, five ICs) to develop as true business partners • Build a team culture of accountability, proactive ownership, and continuous improvement • Create clarity on roles, workload, and capacity across the team • Manage the transition of external contractor support as internal team capacity grows • Personally advise, as needed, on the most complex, senior, and high-stakes searches (Director+, technical, or time-sensitive roles) • Own Greenhouse: configuration, data quality, reporting, and AI tooling — and lead the team's thoughtful integration of AI tools to improve speed and quality without compromising candidate experience • Establish recruiting metrics that matter [time-to-fill, pipeline conversion, source effectiveness, hiring manager satisfaction] and use them to drive decisions • Standardize and simplify processes across the full hiring lifecycle, from JD creation through offer • Develop and embed structured interview frameworks and calibration practices that reduce bias and improve hiring quality • Build hiring manager capability: role kick-off rigor, interview training, feedback calibration, and shared accountability for outcomes • Build GiveDirectly's outbound sourcing capability from the ground up [this largely does not exist today] • Develop sourcing strategies for the talent markets that matter most: global development, tech for good, field operations, and senior functional roles across Africa, Europe, and North America • Build and maintain relationships with Africa-based recruiting networks for senior and hard-to-fill roles where standard channels fall short • Create and maintain warm pipelines for critical role families, including passive candidates for Senior Manager+ positions • Update and sharpen GiveDirectly's careers page and employer brand presence to attract the right talent across global markets • Partner with hiring managers and senior leaders to shift TA's role from reactive fulfillment to proactive planning • Lead role criticality assessments, helping the business distinguish between backfills, growth hires, and strategic bets, and sequence recruiting resources accordingly • Build and own headcount planning and management processes in partnership with Finance and People Ops, including scenario planning for significant potential growth • Translate growth scenarios into staffing models, sourcing lead times, and capacity plans • Advise on workforce planning, including succession gaps, role design, and organizational readiness for scale • Contribute to building the data infrastructure that connects recruiting activity to org-level talent strategy

Job Requirements

  • Alignment with GiveDirectly values and active demonstration of our core competencies: emotional intelligence, problem solving, project management, follow-through, and fostering inclusivity.
  • 7+ years of talent acquisition experience, with at least 3 in a leadership role, including meaningful experience recruiting across Sub-Saharan Africa and other global markets
  • Demonstrated experience scaling a TA function through hypergrowth or significant organizational change, and building sourcing capabilities from the ground up
  • Experience leading global workforce planning: headcount planning, role criticality assessments, scenario planning, and partnering with Finance and senior leadership on talent decisions
  • Strong command of recruiting operations: ATS management (Greenhouse a plus), data and metrics, and process design
  • Experience enabling hiring managers through structured interviewing, calibration, and role kick-off discipline
  • Excellent stakeholder management
  • Experience in a global non-profit, international development organization, or mission-driven company with Africa presence preferred
  • Familiarity with EOR/contractor recruiting models across multiple countries preferred
  • Comfort with AI-assisted recruiting tools preferred
