Sourgum is transforming the $100B+ waste and recycling industry through cutting-edge technology that makes waste removal simpler, smarter, and more cost-effective. Our innovative haulsourcing platform powers high-quality waste and recycling services for businesses at significantly lower costs—saving our customers an average of 20%. Leveraging proprietary datasets, an advanced operating system, and a carefully curated network of 5,000+ trusted vendors, we help companies of all shapes and sizes streamline their operations while advancing sustainability efforts.

We’re a fast-growing, venture-backed company (just closed our Series A!) on a mission to modernize an outdated industry — and we’re just getting started. Our investors include Spark Capital, Founder Collective, Suffolk Technologies, 186 Ventures, and River Park Ventures, the same funds that backed category-defining companies like Slack, Anthropic, Uber, Venmo, and Amazon Pharmacy.

If you’re driven by the opportunity to build something groundbreaking, we’d love to meet you.

The Role:

As a Talent Acquisition Partner, you’ll be part of our small but mighty People team and will help drive the full recruitment lifecycle—from sourcing and interviewing to offer stage and onboarding. You’ll work closely with hiring managers across teams, ensuring a great experience for every candidate and a smooth, efficient hiring process.

While your primary focus will be recruiting, this role is designed for someone who wants exposure to the full People Operations function—including onboarding, employee engagement, performance programs, and culture initiatives.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Manage full-cycle recruiting for a variety of roles across departments (from intake to offer).

  • Partner with hiring managers to understand needs, write job descriptions, and learn to design interview processes.

  • Source candidates using creative approaches (LinkedIn, referrals, events, and beyond.)

  • Conduct phone screens and guide candidates through each step of the process with clear communication.

  • Coordinate interviews and ensure a seamless candidate experience.

  • Maintain accurate and organized data in our ATS and dashboards.

  • Support onboarding for new hires and help build efficient People processes.

  • Collaborate on People projects—such as employee engagement programs, learning initiatives, and performance cycles.

The qualifications you need:

  • 0–2 years of recruiting or HR-related experience (internships welcome).

  • A “can-do” attitude and willingness to take initiative in a fast-moving environment.

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills—you enjoy connecting with people.

  • Curiosity and eagerness to learn about People Ops, HR, and company culture building.

  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.

  • Comfort working with technology and tools (Google Workspace, ATS platforms, LinkedIn, etc.).

Benefits

  • Company stock options as part of your compensation package, giving you the opportunity to share in our company's success and build long-term financial growth.

  • A positive and collaborative work environment with a focus on innovation and sustainability.

  • Comprehensive benefits package including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, LTD, Life Insurance, etc.), retirement plans (401K), and paid time off.

  • Access to hundreds of gyms, studios, and wellness apps—all through one easy membership provided by your Wellhub.

  • yearly Personal Development Budget

  • Opportunities for professional development and career advancement within a growing company.
