Recruitment Associate

About Human Resources

At Airbound, ambition is in the air — but someone has to make sure everything on the ground just works. That's the HR & Admin team.

From setting up the right infrastructure to enabling seamless internal logistics, from ensuring timely procurement to keeping compliance airtight — Admin is the silent force that ensures the company never loses momentum. This is a core enabling role if there ever was one.

We're building some of the most advanced aircraft in the world, and that demands an environment where people can focus deeply, move quickly, and trust that the essentials are never a bottleneck. Every desk, document, delivery, and detail — it all matters. We're not here to react. We're here to anticipate.

If Airbound is to build at the pace of innovation, the Admin team ensures the environment, resources, and rhythms are always in sync with that speed.

About the Role

We're looking for a Junior Recruitment Associate who's curious, people-smart, and eager to learn the ropes of hiring in a fast-moving, tech-driven environment. You'll be the bridge between Airbound's teams and the amazing talent we bring on board — ensuring that every candidate experience is seamless, thoughtful, and aligned with who we are. This is a hands-on role where you'll help source, screen, and coordinate candidates for a wide range of roles — from engineering and manufacturing to operations and design. You'll learn how great teams are built and what it takes to identify the right mix of skill, mindset, and culture fit.

What You'll Do

• Source and engage candidates through platforms like LinkedIn, job boards, and referrals.
• Review and verify resumes for both technical and non-technical positions, ensuring alignment with role requirements.
• Learn to understand hiring needs directly from managers — translating those into clear screening criteria.
• Assess candidates not just for their technical skills, but also for their communication, attitude, and fit with Airbound's culture and values.
• Schedule and conduct interviews, coordinate with internal teams, and keep everything on track through organized follow-ups and reports.
• Maintain up-to-date records on candidate progress and hiring pipelines.
• Support recruitment campaigns, outreach messages, and small projects to improve the overall hiring experience.

What We're Looking For

• Someone with solid interpersonal and communication skills — approachable, professional, and confident in engaging with people.
• A quick learner who can grasp technical roles and understand what each team looks for in candidates (you'll get plenty of exposure to our engineering and R&D teams).
• Ability to assess and read people ; verify whether their resume actually matches their real-life experiences, attitude and skillsets.
• Detail-oriented and organized — you like keeping things in order and closing loops.
• Comfortable using LinkedIn Recruiter, Google Workspace, and online hiring tools. ATS experience is welcome.
• Prior internship or 6–12 months of experience in HR, recruitment, or coordination is a plus (but not mandatory).
• Most importantly, someone who's eager to grow, adaptable, and genuinely enjoys connecting with people.

What we offer

• Comprehensive health insurance to keep you and your loved ones covered
• Relocation assistance and a daily travel stipend to ease your commute
• Advanced salary credit to support you when you need it
• Nutritious, wholesome meals provided daily
