• Leverage Data to Win: Use recruitment metrics and analytics to identify improvement opportunities and demonstrate ROI.

What You Bring to the Table:

• You Deliver at Scale: Thrive in fast-paced environments with a proven track record of making 15+ hires per month. Organized, detail-oriented, and capable of managing multiple roles simultaneously.
• You Know How to Find (and Close) Sales Talent: Skilled in sourcing and outbound techniques (Boolean, social sourcing, referrals). Confident in pitching and selling roles to salespeople.
• You Solve and You Close: Keep momentum through challenges, negotiate effectively, and remove blockers to make placements happen.

Bonus Points If You:

• Speak English plus another European language (German, French, Portuguese, Dutch, or Italian)
• Come from a high-volume or agency background
• Have experience hiring self-employed or commission-based sales reps

Why you should join SumUp
