German-Speaking Recruiter

Full-time (incl. evenings and weekends), Berlin, Germany

About Us

At The Global Talent Co., we provide opportunities to work with leading innovative technology companies worldwide, offering stable employment, competitive compensation, career growth, and access to a community of 25,000+ like-minded marketing professionals.

About the Company

You will be joining a fast-growing wellness and massage company that currently operates in five German cities and is expanding to seven. The company is known for a high-quality, above-and-beyond approach to customer service, and its People team is scaling hiring quickly to keep pace with that growth. This hire sits at the very start of the recruitment funnel, where speed and a great first impression make all the difference.

The Role

As a Recruiter, you will be the first voice candidates hear from the company. You will reach out to new applicants quickly, pitch the opportunity with energy and confidence over the phone, and run initial screenings so the strongest candidates move forward without delay.

You’ll work closely with the Head of People and the wider recruitment team, splitting your time between the Berlin office and home. This role is ideal for someone who loves talking to people, moves fast, and cares more about attitude and conversion than job titles. Previous recruiting experience is welcome, but a strong people-facing background and the right energy matter most.

Key Responsibilities

  • Act as the first point of contact for new applicants, reaching out within 24 hours to maximise conversion
  • Deliver a clear, engaging phone pitch introducing the company and the opportunity
  • Run initial screening calls to assess fit and skill level, and pass qualified candidates to the next stage
  • Manage high-volume outbound calls and structured follow-ups so promising candidates never go cold
  • Provide evening and weekend lead coverage to keep speed-to-contact high
  • Move candidates efficiently through each stage of the recruitment process
  • Keep candidate data accurate and up to date in the applicant tracking system
  • Work with the Head of People to test and improve outreach scripts and conversion

Ideal Candidate

  • Fluent German at a native or near-native level (essential)
  • Fluent English, spoken and written (essential)
  • Based in Berlin and able to work from the office on a hybrid basis, with the right to work in Germany
  • Available to work evenings and weekends as a regular part of the schedule
  • Experience in a people-facing role such as sales, customer service, hospitality or recruiting
  • Confident and persuasive on the phone, building rapport quickly with all kinds of people
  • High energy and resilient, staying motivated across high call volumes and the occasional “not interested”
  • Organised and reliable, keeping track of many conversations at once without letting anything slip

Nice to Have

  • Previous experience in recruiting or talent acquisition
  • Hands-on experience with Personio or a similar HR system or CRM
