About BizAway

At BizAway, we Deliver the Future of Travel.

We have been ranked as Europe’s fastest-growing Travel Management Company for 4 years in a row, but we are just getting started: our ambition is to become one the leading global actors in this space.

We combine cutting-edge technology with a human-centric approach to redefine how companies manage their travel, all while keeping sustainability at our core.

We are looking for someone who thinks about talent proactively and commercially: someone who knows how to identify great people before we need them, build genuine long-term relationships with the market, create communities and turn BizAway into a company that top tech talent knows, follows and wants to talk to.

You will work closely with our CTPO and senior Technology & Product leaders, acting as a strategic talent partner and helping us understand where the best talent is, how to reach it, and how BizAway should position itself to attract it.

• Employer Branding & Ecosystem Building: Position BizAway across Barcelona and European tech hubs by networking with community leaders, producing engaging content withMarketing, and attending or hosting meetups, fairs, and roundtables.
• Commercial & Creative Sourcing: Design innovative outreach strategies (LinkedIn, niche communities, referrals) to engage, convert, and close passive, hard-to-reach tech talent.
• Candidate Experience & Data Intelligence: Deliver a high-touch candidate journey while using market data to advise executive leadership on hiring feasibility and competitive dynamics.
• Team Collaboration: Work with the broader TA team to optimize sourcing practices, priorities, and hiring strategies.

Your basic qualifications

• 5+ years of technical recruitment experience in high-growth tech companies, SaaS, or scaleups.
• Proven track record sourcing and closing complex, senior roles (Software/Data Engineering, Data Science, ML, Architecture, Product).
• Technical fluency to credibly converse with senior engineers, architects, and product leads.
• Advanced headhunting skills utilizing Boolean search, direct outreach, talent mapping, and alternative channels.
• Strategic stakeholder management with the confidence to advise, influence, and challenge senior leadership (including the CTPO).
• Networking & community mindset: Proactive, autonomous networker comfortable representing the brand externally to build long-term talent communities.
• Commercial mindset: Exceptional storytelling, negotiation, and candidate-closing abilities.
• Fluency in English (written and spoken) is a must.

We would be particularly interested if you

• Already have a strong network within the Barcelona and/or European tech ecosystem.

• Have experience in SaaS or high-growth scale-up environments.
• Have worked closely with CTOs, CTPOs or senior Engineering/Product leadership.
• Have experience with employer branding or talent community-building initiatives.
• Come from an environment where recruiters are expected to hunt, influence and close, rather than simply manage recruitment processes.
