At Amazon, we believe that the right hire can transform an entire organization, and we are looking for Senior Recruiting Leaders to lead the charge on our most critical and complex searches. In this role, you will define and deliver recruiting strategies for highly sensitive, high-impact leadership and specialty roles that span across organizations and regions. You will leverage your deep professional network, sharp market intelligence, and creative sourcing instincts to connect with passive candidates who raise the bar for senior talent. If you are a self-starter who is energized by ambiguity, motivated by meaningful impact, and skilled at building trusted relationships with both candidates and senior leaders, this is your opportunity to shape the future of Amazon's leadership. ### Key job responsibilities - Define and execute recruiting strategies for highly critical specialty and leadership roles with broad cross-organizational and cross-regional business impact, optimizing approaches based on internal and external talent market data and long-term organizational design. - Cultivate and leverage a personally developed network of prospects to engage passive candidates, creatively identifying unconventional talent sources and recommending inclusive candidate profiles to broaden the pipeline. - Serve as a trusted adviser to senior leaders and prospects, operating with independence and discretion to assess candidate value, develop compelling compensation packages, and guide stakeholders through complex hiring decisions. - Drive data-informed improvements to recruiting processes by analyzing business signals related to attraction, attrition, succession planning, and talent mapping, and by testing new hiring channels and tools for broader adoption. - Partner with cross-functional teams and senior leadership to align recruiting strategies, manage stakeholder communication, and coach peers and new hires on talent best practices and behavioral interviewing methodologies. ### A day in the life You might start your morning reviewing talent market data and refining a search strategy for a confidential leadership role, then shift to a candidate phone screen where you assess fit across multiple dimensions. After lunch, you could find yourself advising a senior leader on organizational talent needs, followed by a strategy session with your recruiting partners to align on pipeline priorities. Throughout, you are building relationships — reaching out to a prospect you identified through an unconventional channel or mentoring a fellow recruiter on interview techniques. ### About the team Our team is dedicated to finding and attracting the leaders who will shape Amazon's next chapter. We operate at the intersection of business strategy and talent acquisition, partnering closely with senior leadership to fill roles that have lasting organizational impact. We value collaboration, creative problem-solving, and a commitment to raising the standard for every hire. If you want to work alongside a group of thoughtful recruiting professionals who are passionate about connecting extraordinary people with meaningful opportunities, we would love to hear from you. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Sep 17, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 11, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 11, 2026 - Listed for: 24 days - Location: US, WA, Seattle[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10552205/specialty-recruiting) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [2027 Applied Science Internship - Computer Vision - United States, PhD Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/a53555e84470a6c9cc48/) US, WA, Seattle ### [2027 Applied Science Internship - Gen AI & Large Language Models - United States, PhD Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/3810bd7135aadc6d2e56/) US, WA, Seattle ### [2027 Applied Science Internship - Natural Language Processing and Speech Technologies - United States, PhD Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/910529972ac6f79c8cba/) US, WA, Seattle ### [2027 Applied Science Internship - United States - Master's Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/8792191d9d1bfdb472f4/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Account Representative II, New Seller Recruitment - Hardlines Direct Sales](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/b0c91db1231c255e693b/) US, WA, Seattle ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Recruiting Coordinator](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/ruan-transportation/jobs/3bd508eb8abb87195a14/) Ruan Transportation · United States ### [Bilingual Recruiting Assistant](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/comfort-systems-usa/jobs/89f2aec088cbb7c25045/) Comfort Systems USA · Lexington, KY ### [Onboarding & Recruiting Scheduling Coordinator](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/comfort-systems-usa/jobs/4caeea17f64638af7f35/) Comfort Systems USA · Houston, TX ### [Campus Recruiting Associate - Commercial & Investment Bank Risk](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/2f0587e61d859e422e9a/) JPMorganChase · Jersey City, NJ, United States ### [Recruiting New Hire Specialist (Onsite)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/waste-connections/jobs/62534d5826a345730f3b/) Waste Connections · Charlotte, North Carolina, United States of America [Jobs in Seattle, WA](/locations/us/wa/seattle/)[Jobs in Washington](/locations/us-wa/)[HR & Recruiting jobs](/functions/hr-recruiting/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
