Job description

Roundtable is entering a new phase of growth, with hiring needs increasing across teams and geographies.

We’re now looking for our first Talent hire, who will progressively bring recruitment in-house at Roundtable and help us build the function as we scale.

Reporting directly to our CEO, Evan, you’ll work closely with the leadership team, hiring managers and our three external Talent Partners.

What you’ll do

Recruit

• Own a portfolio of searches across business, growth, product, operations, legal and engineering, depending on hiring priorities.

• Recruit across our different markets in France, Luxembourg, Belgium, Germany, Spain and the UK, working with our external Talent Partners and local experts where relevant.

• Source and engage great candidates through direct sourcing, inbound applications, referrals and external partners.

• Manage recruitment processes end-to-end, from kick-off to closing, including Talent interviews and candidate experience.

Partner

• Work closely with hiring managers from defining the need to closing the right candidate, helping them structure interviews and make strong hiring decisions.

• Stay close to new joiners beyond the hiring process, making sure their onboarding experience is smooth and gathering feedback along the way.

• Identify opportunities to improve the onboarding and overall Talent experience as Roundtable grows.

Build

• Develop new ways to identify, engage and stay connected with great talent over time, through sourcing, events, content and community initiatives.

• Improve our recruiting processes and tools as we scale, from implementing our future ATS to building a practical hiring playbook and monitoring recruitment activity through dashboards and KPIs.

• Contribute to employer branding, onboarding and other cross-functional Talent & People projects.

• You have at least 4+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition, ideally in a fast-growing and demanding environment.

• You’re a strong hands‑on recruiter and are comfortable owning searches from sourcing to closing.

• You’ve recruited across different types of roles and enjoy switching between very different talent pools.

• You know how to build strong relationships with hiring managers while also challenging them when needed.

• You’re structured and data‑minded, but pragmatic: you like building processes that actually help teams move faster.

• You’re curious about what happens beyond recruitment and want to contribute to broader Talent topics.

• You’re comfortable working in an international environment and and know how to navigate new markets and find the right local expertise when needed.

• You speak French at a native or near‑native level and are fully comfortable working in English.

• Experience in fintech, investment/private markets, or a fast‑growing startup/scale‑up environment is a plus.

Benefits

• Build the Talent function: help shape Roundtable’s recruitment strategy, processes and tools as we scale, with the freedom to bring your own ideas to life.

• Make a real impact: work directly with our CEO and leadership team, playing a key role in attracting the talent that will drive Roundtable’s next phase of growth.

• Grow with Roundtable: expand your scope and responsibilities as the company scales and its hiring needs evolve.

• Competitive compensation, health insurance and luncheon vouchers.

• Paris‑based role, with a hybrid working environment and a minimum of 2 or 3 days per week in the office.
