Your future contribution

We are looking for a resilient and strategic partner to join us for a 12-month parental leave cover.

As a Talent Acquisition Manager, you will play a critical role in closing immediate capacity gaps and driving the growth of our high-performance teams. You will shift the dynamic from "filling reqs" to solving business problems, acting as a strategic advisor who challenges unrealistic requirements and influences org design. You will own the end-to-end recruiting lifecycle for a diverse portfolio, navigating the dynamic needs of both established HomeToGo functions and the distinct, startup-like environment of our subsidiaries: Smoobu, SECRA, etc. You will act as a guardian of talent density, empowered to pause processes if the bar lowers, ensuring we prioritize long-term performance over short-term "seats filled".

How you’ll add value

• Strategic Advisory & Intelligence: Shift from "order taker" to strategic partner. You will leverage talent intelligence (supply/demand shifts, 'Build vs. Buy' scenarios) to challenge unrealistic requirements and educate stakeholders, ensuring we spot emerging talent pools before competitors do.
• Hiring Delivery & Quality: Drive the hiring plan within SLAs while acting as a guardian of quality. You will secure a >90% offer acceptance rate and successfully manage a mix of tech and business positions (including high-volume German-speaking roles) without lowering the bar.
• Champion Candidate Experience: You treat every candidate—hired or rejected—with respect and transparency. You own the Candidate NPS metrics, ensuring a seamless, high-touch process that enhances our employer brand even for those we don't hire.
• Innovation & AI-Efficiency: Challenge the status quo by piloting AI-driven tools and treating recruitment like a product. You will A/B test outreach, experiment with new channels (e.g., GitHub, Slack), and iterate on interview formats to continuously optimize funnel conversion.
• Operational Excellence & Projects: Beyond the queue, you will drive process improvements and maintain 100% data integrity in our ATS. You ensure accurate reporting that allows us to pivot strategies based on real-time insights rather than gut feeling.

You’ll be successful in this role if you

• Experience: Bring solid in-house recruiting experience from a dynamic tech environment, ideally with a background that spans both technical and business roles.
• Adaptability: You are comfortable working in a fast-paced setting where priorities can change quickly. You find clarity in ambiguity and keep things moving forward effectively.
• Commercial Mindset: You see beyond the "open requisition" and understand the broader business context, allowing you to act as a true consultant to your hiring teams.
• Network Builder: You value long-term relationships over short-term transactions, naturally building talent networks that may pay off months down the line.
• Sourcing Expertise: You are a detective at heart who looks beyond the obvious channels to find talent that others miss.
• Communication: You have a clear, professional communication style in English that allows you to build trust and partner effectively with stakeholders at all levels.
• Nice-to-have: Fluency in German (professional working level) is a strong plus, as is a background combining both agency and in-house recruiting experience.
