Talent Sourcer (m/f/d) | Freelance | 100% Remote (EU-wide)

I believe that great recruiting is about much more than filling vacancies. It's about becoming a trusted recruiting partner, helping companies build strong teams, improve their hiring processes and make better hiring decisions.

These companies operate across a variety of sectors, including software and digital solutions, industrial technology, electronics manufacturing, e-mobility and retail.

I believe in working as an integrated recruiting partner, becoming part of each client's team to develop a deep understanding of its business, culture and hiring needs. This hands-on, collaborative approach enables tailored recruiting solutions that create lasting value for clients.
