Senior Recruiter

Senior Recruiter (New York, NY)

Build the teams behind the biggest content and businesses on YouTube

Beast is scaling fast and the people we hire are as important as the ideas we put into the world. We’re looking for a Senior Recruiter to help build the teams powering our content, brands, and operations across the Beast ecosystem.

This role is for someone who understands that great recruiting is equal parts judgment, creativity, and execution. You’ll partner closely with leaders across content, production, operations, and corporate teams to hire people who thrive in high-ownership, high-visibility environments and who can keep up with the pace of what we’re building.

As the company continues to grow, you’ll play a hands-on role in shaping how teams are built and how recruiting scales, without losing speed or quality. 

The Role

Reporting to the Head of Talent, you’ll own full-cycle recruiting for some of the most impactful roles at Beast. You’ll work directly with creators, producers, operators, and senior leaders to translate ambitious plans into real hires, quickly and thoughtfully.

This role is well-suited for a recruiter who enjoys ambiguity, moves with urgency, and is energized by building teams in environments that don’t look like traditional companies.

What You’ll Do

Own Hiring From Idea to Offer

• Lead full-cycle recruiting across content, production, operations, and corporate roles.
• Partner with hiring managers to define what success actually looks like in a role and not just what’s written on paper.
• Run fast, focused processes that balance urgency with a high bar for talent.
• Close candidates by clearly articulating impact, ownership, and growth, not buzzwords.

Find Talent in Unconventional Places

• Proactively source candidates from creative, operational, and non-traditional backgrounds.
• Build pipelines for roles that blend creativity, execution, and leadership.
• Stay deeply connected to creator, media, and internet culture to spot emerging talent early.

Be a Strategic Talent Partner

• Act as a trusted advisor to hiring managers, offering clear market insights and honest feedback.
• Help teams make confident, timely hiring decisions in a fast-changing environment.
• Balance speed, quality, and culture fit as roles and priorities evolve.

Build Recruiting for Scale

• Improve recruiting processes, interview structures, and tools as the company grows.
• Introduce clarity and consistency without slowing teams down.
• Use data, pattern recognition, and judgment to continuously raise the hiring bar.

What You’ll Bring

• 6-8+ years of full cycle recruiting experience, ideally in the media, entertainment, tech or high-growth startups.
• A strong track record of hiring high performers in fast-moving, creative environments.
• Exceptional sourcing skills and a willingness to go off-script to find the right people.
• Comfort working with ambiguity, evolving roles, and leaders who think big and move fast.
• Strong instincts for talent, culture, and potential, not just resumes.
• Clear communicator, strong closer, and someone who takes real pride in the teams they help build.
• Deep interest in creators, content, internet culture, and building things people actually care about.

The target total compensation ranges from $135,700 – $170,200 including a fixed annual salary of $118,000 – $148,000, an employee equity plan grant, bonus, plus comprehensive benefits.

Equity grants are issued in good faith, subject to company policies, board approval, and individual eligibility.
