Beacon acquires and grows essential businesses. With our centralized platform, we empower founders with the technology and expertise to better serve their customers. Backed by General Catalyst.
About the role
Beacon's talent function is scaling fast, running in parallel across corporate functions and a growing roster of independently operated portfolio companies. Supporting each one of those searches are the systems and processes behind it: clean Ashby data, funnel and data reporting, and coordination that doesn't drop a candidate between steps. We're looking for a Recruiting Operations Lead to own that infrastructure end-to-end, and to build it right the first time, rather than retrofit in the future.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years in recruiting operations, HR technology, or business systems administration, with real ownership of an ATS (Ashby strongly preferred)
- Comfort building process from scratch, not optimizing an existing one. Beacon's talent function is new, you'll be writing the manual, not editing it
- A strong analytical mindset. You can build a dashboard, but more importantly, you know which metric actually changes a decision
- Systems thinking. You can map how a change in one workflow ripples through downstream reporting and integrations before you make it
- Comfort with ambiguity in a fast-moving, small-team, multi-entity environment. No two portfolio companies operate the same way
- Excellent cross-functional communication, you'll work directly with the Talent, Department Heads/Managers, Finance, and People partners across a holding company structure

Own Ashby. Configuration, workflows, integrations, and data hygiene are yours end-to-end, not a shared responsibility with whoever has time.
Build the reporting layer. Funnel metrics, time-to-fill, source effectiveness, and hiring velocity, dashboards recruiters, executives, GMs, and hiring leadership use to make decisions.
Process design. Turn how Beacon hires today into documented, repeatable workflows that hold up as the team and portfolio grow.
Coordination backbone. Partner closely with our Recruiting Coordinator to keep scheduling, candidate communications, and interview logistics clean, especially with multiple portco searches running at once.
