Job Description
The range of annual base salary for full-time employees for this position is below.
Key Responsibilities
- This role owns how Samsara consistently hires exceptional talent across EMEA at pace. As Senior Manager, Recruiting – EMEA, you'll lead a team of recruiters covering non-quota-carrying and R&D hiring across the region — spanning Engineering, R&D, Sales Engineering, and G&A/Marketing/Corp — providing both strategic partnership and hands-on execution. Your job is to build a function that delivers exceptional hires today and gets stronger over time: clearer profiles, stronger signals, better candidate experience, and better decisions.
- You'll report to the Director of Recruiting, EMEA, and act as the primary recruiting leader for Director + stakeholders within your business areas across the region, bringing the technical credibility and executive presence to be trusted from day one on senior and specialist searches.
- This is a hybrid position based in the London area.
- Lead a team of recruiters covering non-quota-carrying and R&D hiring across EMEA — including Engineering, R&D, Sales Engineering, and G&A/Marketing/Corp — holding a clear, well-calibrated bar for talent across the team.
- Coach and develop recruiters, helping them grow from strong execution into independent ownership: planning searches, driving reqs to close, and holding stakeholder trust
- Own the recruiting relationship with Director + engineering and business stakeholders across EMEA, building deep enough business and technical context to be a credible, consultative partner rather than an order-taker.
- Combine strategic partnership with senior stakeholders and direct hands-on execution on the most complex or specialist searches.
- Bring data-driven rigor to diagnosing and fixing recruiting problems: read funnel data, spot contradictions, identify what's broken, and build a practical plan with clear leading and lagging indicators.
- Improve signal-to-noise at every stage of the process: sharper role definition, stronger screens, and more consistent interview evaluation and calibration with hiring managers.
- Design a research-centric approach to hiring across EMEA: talent mapping, deliberate outreach, and long-term relationship building, adapted to the specific dynamics of European talent markets.
- Partner with People Partners and business leaders to learn from great hires and mis-hires, then update profiles, assessment, and closing approaches based on what's learned.
- Model Samsara's values: embed inclusivity, long-term vision, and teamwork into all aspects of hiring and leadership.
Requirements
- Expert experience in full-cycle recruiting, with credible depth in senior software engineering hiring.
- Proven experience of leading and developing recruiting teams across multiple disciplines and locations via both in person and remote leadership.
- Demonstrated ability to build trust and executive presence with senior level stakeholders.
- Strong bar-setting and coaching skills, with a track record of building recruiters from good execution to sought after talent partners
- Comfortable operating across multiple recruiting disciplines simultaneously (technical + Sales Engineering + G&A/Corp), rather than a single specialism.
Benefits & Perks
- At Samsara, we build for the people who keep the global economy moving. We want owners, not passengers, which is why our rewards are designed to fuel high-impact builders. Our compensation program delivers above-market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance-based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles) in a high-growth public company. We meaningfully differentiate pay for our top performers, who have the opportunity to earn above-market compensation that can outpace the broader market over time.
- Beyond compensation, we provide the foundations that enable long-term success: a flexible, employee-led remote model, a professional development stipend, comprehensive health and parental leave plans, and more. If you’re ready to build for the long term and own the outcome, your journey starts here.
