At Navan, our mission is to power the in-person connections that move people, ideas, and businesses forward. Our travelers rely on us to deliver best-in-class support and experiences, and our people are at the heart of making that possible. As we continue to grow our Global Operations & Services (GOS) organization, we’re seeking a Recruiter with Corporate Travel Management (TMC) background, to help us build world-class teams of Corporate Travel Consultants, Travel Experience Agents, and operational talent.

In this role, you’ll partner closely with business leaders, hiring managers, and candidates to source, recruit, and hire top travel talent. You’ll play a key role in scaling our recruiting function while maintaining an excellent candidate experience and ensuring we hire individuals who align with Navan’s mission and values.

• Act as a candidate and client advocate, ensuring a positive experience through clear communication, timely feedback, and strong relationship management.
• Drive recruiting-related projects and initiatives to improve processes, tools, and team efficiency.
• Provide market insights and feedback to leadership regarding talent trends, skill availability, and hiring challenges.
• Collaborate with the Travel Experience team to understand the demands of the role, so we consistently recruit candidates who can thrive in fast-paced, dynamic travel environments.
• Track recruiting metrics and report on progress, conversion rates, and pipeline health.
• Use a variety of sourcing tools and methods (LinkedIn Recruiter, GEM, Greenhouse, networking, referrals, etc.) to engage top talent.
