Recruiter (High Volume Programs)

Workstream is a mission-driven company building the all-in-one HR, payroll, and hiring platform for managing the hourly workforce. There are 2.7 billion hourly workers, making up 80% of the global workforce, but this market has been heavily underserved by technology and deserves better. Workstream has been purpose-built for the hourly workforce from day one so that these businesses and their employees can thrive. Our customers include leading brands from multiple sectors, including Burger King, Carl's Jr./Hardee's, IHOP, KFC, and Culvers. We are a high growth series B company and quickly expanding our product portfolio to deliver on our vision. We are backed by legendary VCs and industry experts like Founders Fund, BOND, and Coatue. Grow With Us We are looking for a highly driven, resourceful, and execution-focused Special Projects Recruiter to lead high-volume recruiting for one of Workstream’s most important operational initiatives: scaling our Video Contributor contractor programs. In this role, you will own recruiting strategy and execution for large-scale hourly contractor hiring, with an immediate focus on rapidly expanding in-office hiring for video contributors in Menlo Park while also supporting broader domestic and international contractor hiring needs as projects evolve. This is a high-urgency, zero-to-one recruiting role for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, can build scalable recruiting systems quickly, and knows how to generate candidate volume through creative sourcing, platform optimization, and operational rigor. You will work cross-functionally with recruiting, operations, project managers, and on-site teams to help scale hiring capacity to meet aggressive production goals. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves to post jobs, optimize sourcing funnels, manage candidate pipelines, and improve recruiting systems—while also thinking strategically about how to build repeatable, scalable high-volume hiring infrastructure. This role requires 4 to 5 days in our Menlo Park office, and will be a rapidly growing role that works closely with the co-founders. Why This Role Is Different This is not a traditional recruiter role focused on steady-state hiring. This is a strategic, high-volume recruiting builder role focused on helping Workstream rapidly scale a critical operational initiative. You will act as both operator and strategist—building sourcing engines, optimizing systems, and driving execution against ambitious hiring targets. The best candidates are recruiters who combine speed, creativity, operational excellence, and resourcefulness—people who know how to build volume quickly while maintaining quality and who are excited by the challenge of scaling a zero-to-one special project.
