Fluent German is essential.

Turn your language skills into a career, not just a job.

At Optimus Search, we've spent 20 years shaping the IT recruitment industry — one placement, one relationship, one great hire at a time. As specialists across Digital, Data, and Life Sciences, we connect exceptional tech talent with some of Europe's most exciting companies.

What started in the mobile market has grown into three market-leading divisions — Optimus Digital, Optimus Data, and Optimus Life Sciences — making us one of the sector's standout names.

Now we're looking for a German-speaking Recruitment Candidate Resourcer to join our London team, working hand-in-hand with one of our top-billing consultants to dominate the German market. This is a pure resourcing role: your focus is finding, engaging, and placing outstanding candidates — no cold business development required.

• Proactively headhunting and sourcing candidates across Digital, Data, and Life Sciences in Germany


• Screening and interviewing candidates to match them to the right roles


• Managing the full candidate journey — from first contact through to offer acceptance


• Building genuine, lasting relationships that keep candidates engaged and informed


• Delivering a five-star candidate experience at every touchpoint

What We're Looking For

No recruitment experience needed — we'll teach you everything. What you do need:

• Fluency in German and English, with excellent written and verbal communication


• A genuine passion for people and relationship-building


• Sharp organisation and attention to detail


• A self-motivated, results-driven mindset


• The energy to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative team
