Rafael Antonio C.
Bilingual Recruiter | Talent Acquisition & Team Lead
I am a highly strategic, bilingual talent acquisition leader and operational manager with over 10 years of experience building, vetting, and managing high-performing remote teams across the US and Latin America. I combine deep recruitment expertise with strong operational leadership to deliver elite talent and scalable hiring systems. Where I deliver immediate value: Full-Cycle Recruitment & Sourcing: 6+ years of proven success managing end-to-end talent acquisition. I specialize in building high-conversion pipelines for both technical and non-technical talent (including virtual assistants, sales reps, and developers) using active headhunting strategies. Remote Team Leadership & HR Operations: Extensive background managing remote, cross-border teams of up to 15 agents. I don't just fill roles; I build async-first workflows and own the operational onboarding process (Slack, tool configuration, and internal systems setup) to ensure new hires are day-one ready. Executive Operations: A deep foundation in high-level administrative support, calendar optimization, and inbox management, ensuring organizational bottlenecks are eliminated before they reach executives. Driven by efficiency and high emotional intelligence, I focus on protecting your company culture and saving leadership time. Let's connect to build your next structured hiring machine.
