About the role
The Talent Acquisition & People Operations Manager plays a critical role in supporting InRule’s growth strategy. Reporting to the CFO, this role owns full-cycle talent acquisition, employer branding, pre-boarding and onboarding experience, contingent workforce and Employer of Record (EOR) management, and HRIS administration and reporting. The successful candidate will drive approximately 15+ hires annually across a global, multi-entity organization including direct employees, EOR employees, and contractors worldwide.
The ideal candidate brings experience across both recruiting and broader HR operations, has a demonstrated track record of thriving in a dynamic, high-growth environment, and enjoys working on multiple projects and work streams at one time.
What you'll do
Talent Acquisition
Manage full-cycle recruiting, for technical and business roles, from sourcing through offer acceptance.
Partner with hiring managers on role scoping, hiring strategy, and employment structure decisions across direct, EOR, and contractor pathways.
Coordinate right-to-work verification and pre-employment requirements.
Partner with legal counsel on employee-facing documentation including offer letters, employment & confidentiality agreements, and other employment-related contracts.
Manage recruiting vendor and external agency relationships.
Employer Branding & Talent Marketing
Own employer brand presence which includes the InRule careers page, LinkedIn Talent brand, and Glassdoor profile.
Develop and execute employer branding initiatives that attract top talent across technical and business functions globally.
Partner with marketing on employer brand alignment with overall brand identity.
Maintain recruiting content including job descriptions and candidate-facing materials.
Pre-Boarding & Onboarding Experience
Own the pre-boarding process from offer acceptance through Day 1 readiness, including equipment requests, system access, and first-day logistics.
Design, maintain, and continuously improve the overall onboarding experience and 30/60/90-day framework.
Contingent Workforce & EOR Management
Serve as InRule’s primary administrator for EOR provider relationships, including country-specific compliance questions, onboarding and offboarding coordination.
Maintain contractor agreements, renewal dates, and classification compliance across InRule's global contractors, including periodic audits to mitigate misclassification risk
HRIS Administration & HR Reporting
Administer the headcount budgeting and requisition management process.
Own day-to-day HRIS and ATS data integrity including employee records, org structure, employment changes, system accuracy and recruiting data.
Build and maintain HR reporting including headcount dashboards, attrition tracking, exit interview analysis, hiring metrics, and people analytics for leadership.
What we’re looking for
4–7 years of full-cycle recruiting in a SaaS or technology environment.
Genuine interest in broader HR operations work, this is not a pure recruiting role.
Demonstrated ability to own multiple workstreams simultaneously in a fast-moving environment.
Experience with HRIS and ATS platforms, HR reporting, and recruiting analytics.
Excellent communication, organization, and stakeholder management skills.
Comfortable building process and operating with ambiguity in a scaling, global organization.
What we offer
Competitive compensation and benefits.
Flexible work environment.
The opportunity to build and shape a premium support function with measurable customer impact.
A collaborative culture with close partnership across Support, Engineering, Product, and Customer Success.
Professional growth within a scaling SaaS organization.
