An opportunity to co-own, co-lead, and transform a high-potential tech company.
READY TO DITCH THE 9-5 AND BUILD SOMETHING BIG?
OutsourceXtra, a future-focused outsourcing agency and software platform, is looking for an experienced and visionary
Chief Recruiting Officer (CRO)
to join as
co-owner
of the company.
This isn't your average recruitment job. It's an opportunity to co-create, co-lead, and co-own a growing business with untapped potential. If you're a seasoned recruiter or talent leader ready to leave behind rigid job structures and build something meaningful with long-term upside - you might be who we're looking for.
----------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE ROLE
OutsourceXtra has the foundations of something great - but it needs the right leadership to scale and thrive. Our CEO,
Alex Douglas
, is assembling a c-suite team to unlock the company's full potential, and the CRO will be a critical piece of that vision.
As CRO, you will:
Lead and evolve the recruitment function for a fast-scaling, global platform
Build and maintain a strong and flexible talent network across multiple markets
Enhance and streamline the experience for freelancers using our platform
Contribute directly to platform improvements through user-first insights and feedback
Manage and mentor recruitment support staff, driving efficiency and impact
Collaborate with the CEO, CMO, CTO, and wider leadership team to shape company strategy and culture
Work between
10 - 25+ hours per week
, depending on your own goals, schedule, and involvement
This is a
high-trust, founder-style role
- you'll have ownership, autonomy, and creative freedom to shape the company's direction.

COMPENSATION & EQUITY
Let's be upfront: this is
not a salaried position (yet)
. It's a chance to
invest your time and skills for equity and future wealth
- and help build something worth owning.
What's on offer:
3% - 5% initial ownership
, based on your involvement and impact
Up to 10% - 20% equity
if you help the company reach team-wide growth targets
A leadership role with genuine decision-making influence
Future salary and financial rewards
once key revenue milestones are met
The potential to grow into an even more senior position as the company evolves
This role is ideal for someone who sees the
long-term power of ownership
over short-term wages - and wants to build a business that reflects their vision and values.
----------------------------------------------
OUR MISSION
At OutsourceXtra, we're redefining the future of flexible work by:
Connecting businesses with top-tier talent, no matter where they're located
Normalising
freedom-first work
- flexible, remote, and fair for both sides
Helping people and companies adapt to a world increasingly shaped by AI and automation
We're creating a platform where talent thrives, businesses succeed, and everyone wins.

THE IDEAL CRO CANDIDATE
Experienced, entrepreneurial, and ready to help build something impactful from the ground up.
You're a high-level recruiter, strategist, and builder. You care deeply about people, process, and growth - and you're ready to lead from the front.

in recruitment, staffing, talent acquisition, or similar roles
A track record of
building and managing successful recruitment systems or teams
Strong leadership, communication, and process improvement skills
