  • Volume & Core Hiring: Drive high-volume talent pipelines, with a strong focus on multilingual profiles (especially German), while partnering with functional managers to fill specialized positions as our office scales.
  • Candidate Experience: Post roles, proactively source, screen CVs, conduct initial interviews, and maintain an engaging candidate journey from first contact through to the final interview stage and offer handoff.

  • Event Coordination: Organize basic local team-building activities or in-office perks (e.g., team lunches, milestone celebrations) to boost employee engagement.

Payroll & Administration (10%)
