Time for something new?
What if recruitment is exactly what you’ve been looking for?
Maybe you're not job hunting. Maybe you're just wondering what's next. Or maybe you’ve never considered recruitment, but something about it feels worth exploring.
- A job where people and impact go hand in hand
You guide professionals through life-changing career moves. You build relationships, read between the lines, solve puzzles, and bring together the right people at the right time.
- No background in HR? Even better
Many of our recruiters started out in completely different fields like education, marketing, psychology, or languages. What connects them is curiosity, empathy, and a drive to keep learning.
- Learn by doing and grow along the way
You do not need to be perfect. What matters is that you are open to learn. You will make mistakes, ask questions, and improve every day.

I used to think recruitment was only for people with an HR degree. Turns out, my experience in another field gave me the perfect foundation. I’ve never felt more at home in a job.

FAQ's
- What if I’m curious about recruitment but not completely sure it is for me?
That is completely valid. Many of us joined without planning to work in recruitment. If you enjoy working with people, thinking on your feet and being part of a fast-paced environment, it might be worth looking into. You do not need to have it all figured out. What matters is your openness to explore something new.
- Do I need prior experience in recruitment to apply?
Not at all. Whether you have worked in hospitality, sales, HR, education or any other field, your people skills and ability to adapt are what really count. We have seen people from all kinds of backgrounds succeed here. What they shared was empathy, curiosity and a strong desire to learn.
- How do I know if I will fit in?
If you value real conversations, enjoy taking initiative and want to be part of a team where people support each other, there is a good chance you will feel at home. We care about doing great work, but also about staying human in the process. You can be ambitious without having to act like someone you are not.
- How should I prepare for the application process?
Just be yourself. Think about what gives you energy at work and what you are hoping to find in your next role. You do not need a perfect pitch or flashy words. We are much more interested in your mindset and what matters to you. Feel free to ask us anything during the process. We believe in two-way conversations.
- Will this job give me long-term stability?
Yes. You will start with a permanent contract and grow from there. We make sure good work is seen and appreciated. As you gain experience, you will also get more room to take on new responsibilities. Whether you want to specialize or try something new, we will support your development every step of the way.
- What does the compensation package include?
You get a salary that reflects your experience, along with a number of extras that make everyday life easier. This includes a company car with fuel or charging card, a phone with subscription, solid insurance, and 12 additional vacation days. If you prefer cycling over driving, bike leasing is also an option.
