As our Recruiter, you will be responsible for attracting and hiring top talent across our engineering, product, commercial and support teams. You will own the full journey: from sitting down with hiring managers to create a clear and compelling job profile, all the way to the signed contract.
As Xsens continues to grow and expand, we are regularly searching for talent in niche fields of expertise, often people who are not actively looking for a new job. That is where you make the difference. You will proactively source, approach and win over candidates at other companies, and when a search calls for extra reach, you will source, team up with and steer external recruitment partners.
You will also play a key role in further building the Xsens employer brand. You will help tell the story of what it is like to work here, through LinkedIn, our careers page and events with universities and the tech community. Along the way, you will keep improving our recruitment process and make sure every candidate has a great experience with Xsens, whether they join us or not.
You will be part of the HR team and report to the HR Manager, based at our office in Enschede, the Netherlands. This is a part-time position, 24 hours per week.
- Managing end-to-end recruitment for a diverse range of vacancies, from intake and job profiles to interviews, offers and onboarding handover
- Actively headhunting passive candidates at other companies through LinkedIn Recruiter, networking, referrals and direct outreach
- Acting as a trusted advisor to hiring managers on market insights, salary benchmarks and selection decisions
- Building talent pipelines for hard-to-fill and future roles, and strengthening Xsens’ employer brand in the international talent market
- Working closely with and managing external recruitment partners, including sourcing, briefing, follow-up and evaluating their performance
- At least 2- 3 years of (tech) recruitment experience, preferably gained in an international tech environment or recruitment agency.
- Proven experience in headhunting
- Excellent stakeholder management skills, both internal as well as with external parties
- Strong sourcing skills and hands-on experience with LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search and an applicant tracking system
- Excellent communication skills with full professional proficiency in English; Dutch is a plus
- A bachelor’s degree in HR, Business, Psychology or a related field, or equivalent experience
We value ingenious ideas, no matter where they come from. We believe diverse thoughts, voices, and backgrounds make us stronger as a company. We know that it is through collaboration with people from all walks of life that we make the most positive impact as an organization.
Join Xsens’ innovative, ambitious, and international team, where your ideas and talents make an impact. Along with a competitive compensation package, we offer a range of benefits designed to support your well-being and help you thrive.
- 28 paid vacation days with an option to buy, sell, or carry over days, giving you flexibility to manage your time off as appropriate to your situation
- Tax perks for your sports memberships and bicycle purchase; so staying active is easier than ever.
- Flexible working hours and the option to work from home, helping you balance life and work
- Paid volunteer time: Through our partnership with Stichting Present, you have the opportunity to give back to the community during office hours
- Our partnership with Equip gives you on-demand access to a dedicated financial planner who provides clear guidance and a concrete plan for wealth building, pensions, and major life events.
