Your initial focus will be on building out our Customer Support team in Lisbon, where our hub has grown to over 100 people in the past year. As you settle into the role, you’ll gradually expand your scope to support other key functions (think Experts, Sales, HQ roles etc) in Lisbon, The Netherlands and across Europe.
You’ll work closely with hiring managers to define role needs, find the right candidates, and guide everyone through the process. You’ll take full ownership of your roles and build strong, trusted partnerships with stakeholders.
Alongside day-to-day recruitment, you’ll also contribute to projects that strengthen our employer brand, improve how we hire, and raise overall quality while collaborating with the (awesome!) talent team.
This is a fixed-term 7-month position, with possible extension depending on performance and business needs.

We’re a collaborative, international team of 10 people with a combination of Recruiters, L&D, and Ops Specialists who work closely together on shared goals around hiring and retaining the right talent. Our team is based across the Netherlands, Portugal, and the UK.

This role is based in Lisbon. We work in a Hybrid setup with work from the office two days per week.
Please note that benefits can vary by location. For specific information regarding what’s available in your country, please consult your recruiter.
Our vibrant offices in Amsterdam, Paris and Lisbon are designed to inspire and connect.

This means we typically ask you to be in the office 2 out of 5 days, roughly 40% of your working time, to collaborate and connect with your colleagues. Of course, if the job description specifies that the role is 100% remote—such as for certain expert or sales positions—then that arrangement will apply.
