About Clay

Our mission is to help organizations turn any growth idea into reality.

We see growth as a creative practice, not a formula. Finding and reaching your best-fit customers takes unique ideas and constant iteration. As AI makes execution faster and tactics easier to copy, creativity is the only lasting advantage. We're already helping thousands of customers — including Anthropic, Notion, Google, and Ramp — go to market with unique data, signals, and AI research.

In 2025, we raised a $100M Series C backed by world-class investors including Sequoia, CapitalG, and First Round — and crossed $100M in revenue.

In 2026, we announced our second employee tender offer in 9 months at a new $5B valuation. We also launched a community equity round, for our customers, agency partners, and club members.

Some things to know about us:

• Our community includes 11,000+ customers, 150+ integration partners, 125+ agencies, 50+ Clay clubs, and 30k members on Slack.
• Our culture is unique inside and outside of work. Our team members are also DJs, activists, writers, clowns, marathoners, skydivers, psychedelic therapists, social workers, and more.
• All employees can work for free with world-class coaches who specialize in creativity, management, and more.
• Our operating principles — including negative maintenance and non-attached action — guide our work. Read more about them here.
• Read about us in the NYT, Forbes, First Round Review, and more.

GTM Recruiting @ Clay

Clay is transforming how companies approach their go-to-market goals, and we need a recruiting leader who will transform how we build our own GTM teams.

In this role, you’ll drive global recruiting efforts across our Sales, Customer Experience, and Marketing teams. You’ll bring deep expertise in high volume recruiting and excitement to help revolutionize how sales and other GTM teams are built.

This is a pivotal year for Clay. You'll lead aggressive hiring initiatives across our SF, NYC, and London offices, establishing recruiting systems and processes that will define our growth trajectory for years to come.

What You’ll Do

• Manage and mentor a team of recruiters and coordinators. Continue to build out our GTM recruiting team for the growth ahead.
• Lead high-volume recruiting strategy for GTM roles at all levels - think roles like SDR, AE, AM, CSM, Solutions Engineering, but done the Clay way. You'll be involved in headcount planning discussions for these teams, too.
• Establish and track recruiting metrics that will help us reach our goals, and become a more disciplined recruiting function.
• Collaborating with leadership on strategic aspects of recruiting. Success in this role isn’t just about filling requisitions, but also about quality of hire and designing effective interview processes.
• Carry your own req load! You'll likely personally take on GTM leadership roles and other high priority roles.
• Ensure a delightful candidate experience, from the first conversation through each of our candidates’ first day at Clay.
  
  

What You'll Bring

• You have 6+ years of experience in recruiting, and at 4+ years of experience as a people manager. You’ve spent time at other high-growth, SaaS startups, focusing on sales and GTM recruiting.
• Experience using data to drive recruiting strategy.
• You’re an effective communicator in both written and spoken contexts.
• You’re an excellent interviewer, with an eye for talent that will thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic startup—not just the most pedigreed applicant.
• You prioritize candidate experience, and have helped shaped that in your previous roles.
• You are in NYC and are excited about an in-person office environment (think 4-5 days per week). You’ll be joining a team with a vibrant and creative culture, but you’ll also be a part of shaping that as Clay grows.
