Talent Acquisition Specialist / Recruiter

This is the perfect role for you if you are a recruiter who loves connecting HR professionals, with their next permanent role or interim assignment. This is an all-around recruitment role, with a strong component of community building.

You have to love matchmaking, be commercially driven, but not consider yourself a typical recruiter. You are a special one… who will help our clients grow, by providing them with the best HR talent.

About 7people

We are a People and Culture consultancy, helping organizations to become irresistible. As builders at heart, we help fast-moving companies transition to their next phase. These are exciting phases, improving their ability to attract, retain, and engage their people. We provide advice and support on all aspects of the employee journey and people strategy.

Your Role

As our Talent Acquisition Specialist, you join us at an exciting time. You will help us expand our recruitment services, and help us - and our clients - grow.

In this role, you will work alongside our HR consultants and work closely with the Recruitment Lead. You will build a large HR talent pool and get to know the Dutch HR community very well. You will assist our clients in finding their new HR talent, and also find new HR consultants for our 7people internal team.

We’ve been helping our clients with HR search services in past years, and keep being asked for more. This role primarily focuses on finding the right permanent HR talent for our clients.
✨ You will build a network of HR professionals, and know where to find them! Even better, they will know where to find you when they are looking for a new role.
✨ You will proactively approach and source candidates for interim and permanent roles, and advertise the roles online. 

✨ You will pre-screen / interview candidates, and present the long- and shortlists to our clients.

✨ You build relationships with your clients and advise them on the best HR profiles. 

✨ If you like, there is plenty of opportunity to do business development, be creative in writing job descriptions or taking any other initiatives.

Your focus roles:

• HR Executive Search (retained) = Head of People / VP People / CHRO profiles

• HR Experienced Search = mid to senior-level profiles such as HRBP and People Lead

• Optional: HR Interim roles = mid to senior-level profiles on an interim basis

HR Community

We bring the HR community together at events and meetups, and we have a monthly podcast. We also publish a newsletter and have a large follower base. You can use all of this to build your talent pool, and it sets you up for success from day 1. Part of this role is to contribute to our HR community via our channels, presenting them with the hottest opportunities!

It's a broad commercial recruitment role, contributing to the growth of 7people and the growth of our clients.

What we need you to bring

• ☑️ Relevant recruitment experience - at least 4+ years experience as a recruiter, with an agency or in an inhouse role.

• Ideally, you’ve recruited for (permanent) HR roles - and even better if you understand the start- and scale up landscape.

• 💖 You enjoy proactively reaching out to people and companies you don’t know yet! This is a role in which you will be the ultimate networker, on the phone quite a bit to make those matches. Also optional to do business development yourself in a way that matches with our values (kind and transparent) and not pushy at all… but we do go after the coolest start- and scaleups.

• 👀 You can work independently, and you know when to ask for help.

• 📈 You love working on multiple assignments at the same time. You are an excellent planner of your time.

• 👩🏼‍💻 You are creative, tech-savvy and love innovation. You always looking for new ways to work smarter and more efficient. When it comes to creating presentations or designing a visual process - you know your way around in tools like Canva and Notion (or you are a very fast learner!)

• 🇳🇱 You are based locally, speak Dutch and have gained experience in the Netherlands.

• ✍🏻 Creative writing and design skills - because our job adverts should look great and read well.

• 😎 These apply to you: Curious, Flexible, Independent, Warm, Helpful, Positive.

We know it's a lot to ask, but we are looking for a pretty awesome person. A recruiter who will delight our clients with brilliant profiles, a quick turnaround time and a lot of energy. In return you get to work for some of the most incredible companies out there 🔥
