Recruitment Manager

Why is it worth your time?

• We work as a team and as partners, so the recruitment process considers not only what we are looking for but also what is best for you.
• You'll lead a small (2-3 people), but hands-on and open-minded team of Recruitment Partners.
• You will be helping the team in looking for the best specialists on the Polish market for the Silicon Valley scale-up, with offices in PL and USA and conduct some recruitment processes yourself.
• We place great importance on fitting in with the organization – which makes your work very significant for the company.
• You can always count on respectful, mature, and companionable tech people to support you with the knowledge you need during the recruitment processes.
• You will have regular 1:1s with your manager (Director of People&Culture) and an individualized approach to your growth.
• You will experience a friendly work environment and be given the tools you need to make your job more effective.
• You will be given freedom and flexibility, as we believe those are our best tools for making your job fit your life. You can do both— work remotely, or drop by our loft-style office in the center of Warsaw.
• We care, cherish people’s skills, and reward them fairly – check out our perks and benefits below.

We are looking for someone, who...

• Has 3+ years of experience in leading a team.
• Has 6+ years of experience in recruitment in the IT industry (experience in product companies is an asset) and wants to develop further in this area.
• Has more of a startup vibe approach than corporate, likes good jokes, focuses on smart&sensible solutions, enjoys a changing environment and not a formal approach.
• Can communicate easily with different stakeholders and is capable of asking the right questions to extract key insights.
• Is comfortable working with ATS and HRIS - hands-on experience with tools such as Lever, Personio, or similar platforms is a strong asset.
• Has a proven track record of hands-on headhunting and direct sourcing for senior-level roles, with the ability to identify and engage passive candidates effectively.
• Actively engages in operational recruitment activities - is not afraid to roll up their sleeves and get involved in day-to-day hiring processes alongside the team.
• Brings a data-driven mindset to recruitment - tracks and analyzes key hiring metrics (e.g. time-to-hire, pipeline conversion, source effectiveness), uses data to drive decisions, and looks for opportunities to introduce automation and process improvements that increase team efficiency.
• Can organize and prioritize their own work and the work of a team, come up with their own initiatives, notice improvements to implement and think about finding solutions, not creating problems.
• Smoothly uses Polish (C2) and English (at least B2/C1) — we are part of the American scale-up, therefore fluent English is a must-have.
• Is available full-time and is able to show up in our Warsaw office from time to time and occasionally work in the evenings (+- 2 days a week).
