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

Tools & Stack
Personio, phone and video calling tools
