About BlueThrone

We acquire, operate, and scale mobile apps with proven product-market fit. We don't just "manage" apps; we transform them into market leaders using proprietary tools, deep data-driven experimentation, and a shared infrastructure that actually works.

Our team is a mix of entrepreneurs, product thinkers, marketing experts, and builders who value agility, a growth mindset, and - most importantly - tangible outcomes. With a culture rooted in ownership and momentum, we turn ambition into action and action into scale.

At BlueThrone, we don’t do micromanagement; we do excellence.

You’ll love it here if

• You thrive in a fast-growing company with the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.
• You hate micromanagement.
• You appreciate guidance, but you don't need a babysitter.
• You dive into situations and learn on the go.
• You don't guess; you look at the numbers to see which sourcing channel or outreach message is actually performing.
• You value speed. You get a rush from closing a hard-to-fill role quickly and efficiently.
• You want to be part of a supportive team that values collective success over individual wins.
• You look for opportunities for continuous learning and professional development as BlueThrone scales.
• You follow your passion. Above all, you actually enjoy the "social" part of recruitment and have fun doing it.

The challenge

We are scaling, and our bar for talent is incredibly high. We don't just wait for the right people to apply; we go out and find them.

This is a sourcing-and-headhunting-first role. You won’t just be moving candidates through a funnel; you’ll be building talent maps, diving into niche communities, and running creative outbound outreach to land "A-players" who aren't even looking for a new job yet.

You’ll work hand-in-hand with our hiring managers and me to ensure we’re building a world-class team.

What You’ll Do

Be a Hunter: You’ll own the outbound pipeline. Whether it’s LinkedIn, Slack communities, or creative corners of the web, you know how to find and engage top talent.

Full-Cycle Ownership: From the first "hello" to the final offer, you’ll manage the entire journey for a variety of roles across the company.

Strategize with the Best: Partner closely with hiring managers to nail down what "great" looks like for every role and build the interview plans to prove it.

Candidate Experience: You’re the face of BlueThrone. You’ll make sure every candidate gets a positive and seamless experience throughout the recruitment process and feels the energy of our culture, even if they don't end up joining.

Stay Organized: We use Teamtailor, and we use it well. You’ll keep our pipelines clean, our feedback structured, and our data actionable.

Maintain Speed: Help us keep our momentum without cutting corners on quality.

Who We’re Looking For

• You’ve got 3-5 years of full-cycle recruiting under your belt, ideally in a fast-moving startup/scale-up or a product tech company.
• You don't just rely on "InMails." You know how to build talent maps and craft outreach that actually gets a response.
• You thrive when given the freedom to manage your time and prioritize your own tasks. You’re always ready to tackle new challenges head-on.
• You have hands-on experience with Teamtailor (or a similar ATS), and you know how to keep things organized and efficient while managing high-volume pipelines.
• Your English is fluent, and you’re a natural at building rapport quickly with both candidates and stakeholders.
• You love recruitment, not just as a job, but as a way to connect with people and create meaningful career opportunities for them.

Speed is as important to us as it is to you. Usually, we wrap things up in 3-4 weeks.

Equal opportunities for everyone

We believe the best teams are diverse teams. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences. We consider all candidates regardless of age, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, family or parental status, national origin, veteran status, neurodiversity, or disability. If you need reasonable adjustments at any point in the application or interview process, please let us know.
