Job description

Location: Hybrid / Utrecht, The Netherlands

Salary: €4,500 – €4,900 gross per month (based on 36 hours)

Ready for autonomy, a large variety of tasks, and real social impact?

Are you a recruitment professional ready for your next career step? Are you looking for a hybrid recruiter job in the Netherlands that offers the ultimate work-life balance, yet keeps you intellectually challenged? At PsyGlobal, you won’t just be executing tasks. We offer you the autonomy to not only conduct interviews but also think strategically, optimise recruitment processes, help develop our organisation, and ultimately grow into a recruitment lead role within 6 to 9 months.

The best part? Through your expertise in talent sourcing, you make a direct social impact by connecting international talent to the Dutch mental healthcare (GGZ), making care more accessible and inclusive.

Your role at PsyGlobal

Within a dynamic international team of 3 other recruiters and 2 account managers, you are an indispensable link. You conduct in-depth interviews with international mental health professionals, but you also continuously look at the bigger picture.

You identify where our recruitment processes can be smarter and take the initiative to improve them, whether it’s writing compelling job descriptions, implementing data-driven recruitment strategies, or utilising AI in talent acquisition. You know exactly how to engage and inspire the team during these changes.

Additionally, you will work closely with the founders. You are their reality check. Do they have a wild idea that isn’t efficient from a recruiter’s perspective? You aren’t afraid to firmly push back and provide a practical, strategic solution.

What will you do?

• International Talent Sourcing: You actively track down and connect with international mental health professionals (such as psychologists and social workers), conduct intake interviews, and guide them from A to Z towards a long-term placement in the Dutch healthcare system.
• Recruitment Optimisation: You utilise your broad knowledge (or conduct research) regarding employer branding, recruitment data, and AI innovation to streamline our hiring processes.
• Cross-Departmental Collaboration: You actively collaborate with departments like People Operations, Learning & Development, and Communications to streamline recruitment strategies across the organisation.
• Change Management & Mentorship: You implement efficient working methods and prepare to grow into a recruiter lead role within 6 to 9 months.
• Stakeholder Management: You act as a strategic sparring partner for management. Thanks to your affinity with account management, you flawlessly understand the needs of both the candidate and the healthcare organisations.

Who are you?

• You are a recruiter with a healthy dose of guts. You don’t need to know everything yet, as long as you have the drive to figure it all out.
• You have solid recruitment or talent acquisition experience (knowledge of the Dutch mental healthcare labor market / GGZ is a major plus).
• You are a generalist: you know a bit (or learn incredibly fast) about all facets of modern recruitment.
• You think in terms of solutions and efficiency, and you crave autonomy in your daily work.
• You have the social agility to smoothly integrate innovations into the team and overcome resistance.
• You dare to think critically and provide constructive advice to management.
• Language requirements: We mostly speak English within our team, so you must feel comfortable speaking and writing in English.
• You are independent, proactive, and culturally sensitive.

What do we offer?

• A unique opportunity to leave your mark, explore the breadth of your profession, and make a direct social impact in the mental health sector.
• A flexible position for 24 to 40 hours a week, giving you the space for your ultimate work-life balance.
• An excellent salary of €4,500 to €4,900 gross per month (based on 36 hours), plus your 8% holiday allowance which is conveniently paid out monthly.
• Time off & Security: 5 weeks of holiday per year, and a pension contribution (€300 gross per month based on 40 hours).
• Ultimate flexibility: A hybrid work model with flexible working hours in the heart of Utrecht (where we collaborate at least 2 days a week).
• The essentials covered: Full travel reimbursement (€0.23/km or public transport), a phone allowance, and a company laptop if needed.
• A 1-year contract, with the absolute intention to extend into a permanent contract.
