Recruiter Senior - Human Resources

About the Role
As a Senior Global Recruiter, you will play a critical role in building the leadership, commercial, and corporate teams that enable Spire to grow and deliver for customers around the world. Your primary focus will be executive, commercial, and general and administrative (G&A) hiring across North America and other international markets.

Reporting to the Global Head of Talent Acquisition, you will act as a trusted advisor to hiring managers and senior leaders. You will combine executive search discipline, market intelligence, proactive sourcing, and sound judgment to shape effective hiring strategies and deliver high-quality talent in a fast-paced global organization. You will also flex into other complex or specialist searches when business priorities require.

~ Provide clear advice on talent availability, competitor activity, compensation, market conditions, and factors that may affect the quality or pace of a search.

~ Coach hiring teams on candidate assessment, interview quality, inclusive hiring, and effective decision-making.

Executive Search & Full-Cycle Recruiting
~ Own the full recruitment lifecycle, from intake and market mapping through outreach, assessment, offer acceptance, and pre-boarding partnership.

~ Translate search data and market feedback into clear recommendations that help leaders refine requirements, remove process barriers, and make timely hiring decisions.
~ Present search progress and talent-market insights through regular stakeholder updates, using appropriate dashboards, reports, and narrative commentary rather than data in isolation.
~ Use recruiting metrics and search outcomes to identify trends, improve forecasting, strengthen search strategy, and continuously improve hiring effectiveness.

Develop a strong understanding of Spire's markets, products, customers, competitors, and growth priorities so you can represent the opportunity credibly.
~ Act as a compelling brand ambassador, communicating Spire's mission, culture, and employee value proposition to senior candidates.
