We Are Hiring a Head of Talent

We started OpenPhone three years ago to give tens of millions of businesses and professionals out there who use their personal phone numbers for work a better option. My dad is a small business owner so I saw this problem first-hand. Lack of privacy, lack of control over when to receive calls, lack of context and inability to share the load among your team was the inspiration for OpenPhone. Soon after starting the company we realized the same pain-points impact a much broader market than just SMBs. You’ve done recruiting or HR, so chances are you experienced some of these problems as well.

In a remote world where relationships are built and maintained over long distances, the tools you use for communication play a significant role in your quality of life and your bottom line.

So at the end of the day, our mission is to help businesses grow.

Fast forward to today, we are now a Series B company, growing faster than ever, with customers happier than anywhere else. In fact in this short period, we became the highest rated business phone on G2 on every category. You could say we are off to a great start.

About the role

Even though our small team got us far, for us to execute on our mission of helping businesses grow, first we need to grow ourselves. As a Head of Talent, you will play a central role in the success of OpenPhone both in the short and the long term. Your responsibilities will include the following.
