About the role
This is not a generalist HR role covering developers, accountants, and a bit of marketing on the side. We are looking for a recruiter who knows where media buyers spend their time: closed Telegram communities, niche job boards, and conference hallways rather than LinkedIn resumes.
You can read a buyer’s case by the numbers, including spend, ROI, and campaign stability, and tell genuine experience from screenshots borrowed from someone else’s ad account.
ROIcamp is the media buying unit of a company that has worked in the dating vertical since 2011, where media buying means purchasing paid traffic on ad platforms at scale. Our buyers run the click, registration, subscription, and rebill funnel, and screening them properly requires understanding that mechanic, which we will teach you.
Our commitment to reply within 2 business days is part of the employer brand rather than an internal metric. In a niche where everyone knows everyone, fast and honest communication carries further than any banner. Your mission is to build the buying department together with the Head of Media Buying, who is also your manager.
What you’ll do
- Source actively where the niche lives: Telegram communities, industry boards, conference chats, and team referrals.
- Screen buyers by the numbers, verifying cases, spend, and campaigns against our checklists before a candidate reaches the Head.
- Run candidates through the full hiring funnel while holding a reply-within-2-business-days SLA at every stage.
- Present the offer, walking candidates through our open buyer bonus formula and why a transparent calculation beats a vague percentage.
- Build employer brand in the niche through the careers page, vacancy texts, and presence in industry communities.
- Own hiring analytics: funnel by channel, stage conversion, cost, and time to fill.
- Source in person at niche conferences, with trips covered by the company.
Requirements
- At least 2 years of recruiting in affiliate, iGaming, or traffic niches, where affiliate marketing means driving paid traffic to partner offers for a share of the revenue.
- Your own network among buyers and a grasp of compensation structures built on a fixed salary plus a percentage of profit.
- The ability to run several roles in parallel without letting communication quality slip.
- Enough industry fluency to ask a buyer pointed questions about their numbers and notice where the answers do not hold up.
Nice to have
- Experience hiring for dating teams.
- Running a Telegram channel or producing employer-brand content.
- First-hand presence at industry conferences such as MAC or Affiliate World.
What we offer
- A bonus for every successful hire on top of the base salary, calculated by a formula known upfront rather than left to a manager’s discretion.
- Budget for paid channels: propose one, justify it, and receive the funding.
- Niche conferences at the company’s expense, so you source where your candidates already are.
- Fully remote work with a team accustomed to async collaboration.
- Payouts on a fixed date each month.
Growth path
The track runs from hiring-wave recruiter to Lead Recruiter for the traffic direction and then to head of the Talent function. The company has grown in structured teams since 2011: close the first wave and you will build systematic hiring for the ones that follow.
Compensation
The base salary is $1,200–2,000 plus a bonus per successful hire, paid once the candidate passes probation. Payouts are made on a fixed date each month.
Hiring process
A 30-minute screening call, an interview with the Head of Media Buying, and a review of a real sourcing case, followed by an offer. The process takes up to 10 business days, and we hold the 2-business-day reply SLA with you too.
Questions about this role
How many roles will I run at once?
4–6 roles of the hiring wave at the start (buyers, farming, creative). Intense, but not 20 parallel roles: communication quality beats volume.
Is there budget for paid channels?
Yes: paid postings on niche boards, Telegram channels and job sites are in the hiring budget. Propose a channel, justify it, get the budget.
How is the hiring bonus calculated?
A fixed amount per hire, paid after they pass probation. The amount depends on role seniority — details in the offer.
Who runs final interviews?
Technical finals — the Head or the team lead. You own the candidate journey end-to-end, prep them for stages and keep the 2-business-day reply SLA.
Is employer brand part of my job?
Partly: careers page, job texts, presence in niche communities. We set strategy together; full content marketing is not on you.
