About PeopleCap

PeopleCap is a specialist talent acquisition partner to banking, financial services, insurance, and WealthTech companies across India. We place mid to senior talent on mandates that reward a real search over a fast one. We are at the point where the delivery team needs someone to own it properly, run it to a standard, and make it better every week.

About the role

This is a hands-on leadership role, not a title. You will own delivery for a portfolio of client accounts and lead a small team of recruiters, and you will be measured on two things: the quality of what goes out to clients, and whether the team gets better under you. We are looking for someone who runs a tight operating rhythm, inspects the work rather than hoping it gets done, and coaches recruiters to a higher hit rate instead of simply distributing requisitions.

What you will do

- Own end-to-end delivery across a portfolio of client mandates, accountable for fill rate, quality of submissions, and turnaround.
- Lead, coach, and hold a small team of recruiters to a transparent standard, and develop the weaker performers rather than working around them.
- Run a consistent weekly operating cadence: review submissions and client rejections with the team, turn the reasons into concrete changes in how people source and pitch, and make sure those changes actually hold.
- Own the client relationship at your level: take briefs properly, manage expectations, and keep senior client contacts confident in PeopleCap.




- Build and enforce the basics that make a desk reliable: proper intake on every mandate, logged rejection reasons, clean records, and visible outcome metrics per recruiter.
- Carry a reduced personal requisition load yourself, so you lead from the front and stay close to the actual work.
- Report delivery status and risks clearly to leadership, and resolve what is yours to resolve rather than escalating it.

What we are looking for

- 6 or more years in recruitment, including real experience leading or materially raising the performance of a team, agency-side preferred.
- A track record in BFSI, financial services, fintech, or WealthTech hiring.
- Evidence that you run a disciplined process: you inspect work, you use feedback loops, and teams measurably improve under you.
- The spine to hold people to a standard and have the direct conversation when the standard is missed.
- Strong client-facing credibility at a senior level.
- Sound judgement on what you decide yourself versus what genuinely needs leadership, and the ownership to take the former off the table.

Nice to have

- Experience setting up or tightening recruitment operations: intake templates, scorecards, rejection-reason tracking, and outcome metrics.

How we work

- PeopleCap runs a work-from-office model, Monday to Friday, from our Noida office. This is a role with genuine ownership. You will run the delivery team and be trusted to run it well, with leadership backing you and holding you to the outcome.
