- Maintain internal mailing lists and collaboration tools while coordinating relevant external partners.
- 3–5 years of professional experience in Human Resources, ideally across recruitment, HR administration, or a generalist People role.
- Experience in a startup or scale-up environment is advantageous; candidates from recruitment agencies or larger organisations are also welcome.
- Experience across both talent acquisition and HR operations, or a strong motivation to expand from one area into the other.
- Hands-on experience conducting HR interviews and managing recruitment processes from initial screening through offer and closing.
