About the Job

We are recruiting a Talent Acquisition Specialist to join our People & Talent team at Ethos. Working closely with the Talent Acquisition Lead, you'll be at the heart of our recruitment function, managing the complete recruitment journey across all areas of our business, from mechanical and electrical engineers to project managers, operations, finance, HR, marketing, and leadership positions.

This role is ideal for an experienced recruitment professional who is passionate about attracting exceptional talent and delivering an outstanding candidate experience. You'll own the full recruitment lifecycle.

  • Maintaining our Applicant Tracking System and analysing recruitment data to spot trends and opportunities for improvement
  • Crafting compelling job advertisements and outreach messages that make talented people want to work at Ethos
  • Implementing creative sourcing strategies that reach diverse talent pools and reduce our dependency on recruitment agencies

  • Comfortable working minimum 3 days per week in our Dublin office, flexibility required

  • Genuinely curious and enjoys understanding different roles across the business
  • Resilient and adaptable - comfortable with variety and pace
  • Collaborative team player who also works effectively independently
  • Passionate about creating exceptional candidate experiences
  • Understanding that recruitment is about building relationships, not just filling roles

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
