You could be a recruiting coordinator anywhere. Why Jerry.ai?
Join a pre-IPO startup with capital, traction, and runway: We are tackling a $2T market, have $240M in funding, 60X revenue growth, and we’re profitable.
Launch your career in recruiting. We’re committed to mentoring and promoting high performers into Recruiter or Sourcer roles as you learn our hiring bar and how the business runs.
You’ll build, not just execute. You’ll run scheduling and logistics, but you’ll also have the autonomy to improve systems, fix bottlenecks, and make the whole team faster and more effective.
Why contract-to-perm?
At Jerry.ai, we move quickly and our hiring bar is high. We treat interview coordination like white-glove operations rather than just admin support. The contract phase (3 months) is a chance for both sides to see if we’re the right match. You’ll get a front-row seat to our "high ownership, high impact" culture. If you thrive on urgency and precision, the path to a permanent role here is clear.
About the opportunity:
You will be the operational backbone of our recruiting engine, owning the interview scheduling and logistics to make sure every candidate experiences a seamless, high-touch process end to end.
We’re looking for a high-velocity operator who doesn’t just execute tasks, but anticipates what’s next, removes friction before it appears, and helps the recruiting team move faster, smarter, and more effectively. You’ll act as a true force multiplier for our recruiting engine, your work will directly shape our ability to attract and hire top talent at Jerry.ai.
How you will make an impact:
Provide "white-glove" service to candidates by sending personalized pre-interview info and managing LinkedIn outreach
Manage the lifecycle of take-home assignments, maintain candidate profiles in Ashby ATS, and ensure all candidate documents are accessible to those who need them
Manage recruiter calendars with precision, rearranging interviews on the fly to prioritize high-impact candidates and maximize our daily capacity
Act as the point person for leadership’s urgent recruiting needs, whether it's updating compensation bands, posting new job reqs, or coordinating the training/shadowing of new interviewers
Who you are:
You can’t stand inefficiency: You’re always spotting ways to automate, streamline, and level-up how work gets done, and you enjoy turning messy processes into clean, scalable systems.
You have an intense sense of urgency: You don't wait for things to happen, you make them happen. You move quickly, close loops fast, and thrive in environments where priorities shift and speed matters.
Your attention to detail is impeccable: You catch the small things that others miss. Your written communication is clear, polished and professional, and you keep processes tight so nothing slips.
You are a proactive problem solver: You’re calm under pressure, and comfortable navigating ambiguity. You can handle high-stakes, time-sensitive requests from leadership without losing focus or pace.
Ideal profile:
Prior experience in a fast-growth startup or a high-volume agency environment is strongly preferred
Bachelor’s degree

About Jerry.ai
Jerry is building the first AI-powered advisor to manage all your physical assets.
Your car, home, and motorcycle aren't just purchases, they're the physical embodiment of the life you've worked hard to build. Yet the experience of owning them is stuck in the 90s. Every step of the journey — buying, insuring, maintaining, repairing, selling — is fragmented, complicated, and expensive.
Imagine having a trusted friend in your pocket who takes care of everything: they find you the right car or home at the right price, lock in the best insurance rate without you lifting a finger, remind you before that service appointment turns into an expensive repair, and help you sell at the best price when the time is right. That friend is Jerry.
We started with car insurance in 2019, became one of the top 3 brokers in the U.S., then added driving insights, diagnostics, and a repair marketplace. We've reached 5M+ customers, raised $240M+, and achieved profitability in 2024. We're now expanding into home, motorcycle, RV, and beyond.
Led by serial entrepreneurs and backed by Y Combinator, our team comprises talented and big-hearted leaders from places like Nvidia, Meta, Amazon, BCG, McKinsey, Bain, and GEICO. Our culture is the #1 reason people join Jerry and stay — we are a small and mighty team of competitive but kind people who think and act like owners, care deeply about the quality and impact of our work, and are relentless in our pursuit of learning and mastery over our craft.
We are proud to consistently rank as one of Y Combinator's Top Companies, Forbes and Statista's Best Startup Employers, and to have received other accolades in fintech and insurtech innovation, workplace culture, and leadership.
We support remote work for most roles, but if you prefer in-person or hybrid, we also have offices in Palo Alto, New York City, Chicago, and Toronto.
Compensation Range: $55K - $75K

Tips for Your Remote Contract Recruiter Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote contract recruiter openings from across the U.S. in one place. Search for roles that match your experience and apply directly to the ones that fit before they close.
Show async communication skills upfront
Remote hiring managers evaluate how you communicate before you ever join a call. Write cover materials and email outreach in clear, direct sentences that get to the point fast. Wordy or vague written communication signals a poor remote fit.
Quantify your remote sourcing output
Remote contract recruiter roles are short engagements, so hiring managers want to see what you've produced. List reqs filled, time-to-fill averages, and ATS platforms you've run independently to show you can deliver without oversight.
Target remote-first and distributed team postings
Not every remote contract recruiter posting comes from a company built for distributed work. Prioritize roles at remote-first companies and distributed teams, where async workflows, remote onboarding, and independent contributor structures are already in place.
Remote Contract Recruiter Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote contract recruiter job?
Remote contract recruiter roles go to candidates who can demonstrate they work well without direct supervision. Remote hiring managers screen for strong written communication, comfort with async tools like Slack and ATS platforms, and the ability to manage a req load independently from day one. A history of closing requisitions quickly and a clean record of managing candidates through full-cycle pipelines without hand-holding gives you a clear edge.
Which companies hire remote contract recruiters?
Employers currently hiring remote contract recruiters include Korn Ferry, The Nanny Poppins Agency, and Plaid, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote-first technology companies, high-growth SaaS firms, and distributed healthcare and financial services teams are the most consistent sources of contract recruiter openings that are fully remote.
Can you get a remote contract recruiter job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level contract recruiter roles are harder to land because you're expected to work independently from day one with little ramp time. Smaller remote-first startups and staffing agencies that operate distributed are more open to entry-level candidates. Showing sourcing projects, volunteer recruiting work, or completed coursework in talent acquisition can substitute for direct experience and open the door.
Do you need a degree for remote contract recruiter jobs?
Not always. Remote employers hiring contract recruiters weigh demonstrated sourcing ability, experience with ATS platforms, and a history of filling roles on deadline more heavily than a specific degree. Candidates who can show real results, such as reqs filled, time-to-hire metrics, or a strong pipeline record, compete effectively against degree holders when the role is contract and remote.
Which industries hire the most remote contract recruiters?
Most remote contract recruiter openings sit in Technology & Software and Electronics & Hardware, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors rely on distributed teams that scale headcount quickly, making contract recruiters a practical hire for surge hiring without adding permanent headcount.
