Job description

Who We Are

Founded in 2017, Unit8 is a fast-growing Swiss AI and data analytics consulting and services company dedicated to solving complex problems of traditional industries like automotive, chemical, financial services, manufacturing and pharma. We work with some of the biggest organisations in Europe to solve the challenges that directly affect their business - be it operations, finance, manufacturing or R&D. Since our foundation, we have successfully delivered more than 250 projects and have grown to 170+ talented individuals across 8 office locations.

Unit8's mission is to drive the adoption of AI and Data Science in the non-digital industries and to help accelerate their digital transformation. Among its activities, Unit8 dedicates a part of its resources and time on projects that deeply matter to us - that includes collaboration on pro-bono and "engineering for good" causes. You can learn more about what we are passionate about at Unit8 Talks and on our website you can find more useful information about our business and recruiting process.

About You

We're hiring a Talent Acquisition Partner to run recruiting end-to-end: from the first chat with a hiring manager to the day someone signs. You'll look after the whole journey, not a slice of it. It's also a role for someone who likes new ground: Unit8 is growing into new markets, and our current locations are not the last ones. Building our talent network there is a big part of the job.

• You’ve recruited for technology or consulting roles from start to finish: intake, outreach, interviews, offers and closing.
• You're comfortable approaching talent directly, through LinkedIn Recruiter and your own network.
• You work well with the people around the process. You can sit down with a hiring manager and pin down who they need and what problem that person will solve.
• You're careful and practical about how the work gets done. You judge candidates on what they actually showed you.
• You're curious about AI: you try tools, say what falls short, and want to learn to build recruiting agents.
• You communicate clearly in English.

What You'll Do

• Run searches from the first intake call to a signed offer. You decide who gets interviewed and bring hiring managers candidates worth their time, along with clear reasoning, so they can make a confident call.
• Build our presence in new markets. You reach out directly, build relationships, and grow a talent network that doesn't depend on who happens to apply this week.
• Help us hire consistently. Set up each search with the hiring manager, work with technical interviewers from each business area to agree what a good answer looks like, and share what you learn so the next search is easier.
• Cut out repetitive work. Try AI tools and help us build recruiting agents. You spend your time talking to people, not typing notes.

What we offer

• Shape our US expansion: Play a pivotal role in building the US presence of Unit8, a leading Swiss data & AI consultancy, and help drive the growth and impact of our operations in this new market.
• Dedicated time and budget for training and pro-bono projects
• 30 paid days off
• Cross offices/company-wide frequent events (off-site or online) as well as quarterly budget to spend with the team on after-work activities
• Compensation package including base salary, yearly bonus based on the both individual + company performance
• In addition to base pay, total compensation includes an annual bonus based on individual and company performance. We also offer a 401(k) retirement plan and comprehensive health insurance. Final compensation will be determined based on the candidate's qualifications, experience, and skills.
