Not Your Typical Workplace…

Tired of the 9-to-5 grind? Imagine a world without borders, where opportunities are endless. That’s the future of work, and it’s exactly what we’re building at WorkMotion!

Our remote-first team spans the globe, helping companies hire, onboard, and manage international talent through smart, flexible workforce solutions. Fast-paced, people-driven, and globally connected—we empower businesses to build teams without borders, and we have a blast doing it.

More Than a Role

We don’t just need a Talent Acquisition Specialist, EMEA — we need a Talent Matchmaker & Growth Engine.

We’re looking for someone who gets their energy from discovering exceptional talent, building genuine connections, and helping scale remote teams, while keeping a sharp, analytical focus on how hiring quality drives business success.

This is a four-month fixed-term opportunity for someone who enjoys taking ownership and making an impact. You’ll manage full-cycle recruitment across both technical and non-technical roles, partnering with teams across EMEA to attract, engage, and secure the right talent.

You won’t be a solo operator. You’ll collaborate closely with Hiring Managers, People Operations, and Department Leads, bringing teams together to ensure consistency, momentum, and an exceptional hiring experience.

Where Responsibility Meets Real Opportunity…

• Drive Full-Cycle Recruitment: Own end-to-end recruitment across EMEA for a variety of technical roles (Engineering, Product) and non-technical roles (Sales, Operations, Marketing, and other business functions).
• Source Exceptional Talent: Leverage creative sourcing strategies, AI-powered search tools, and direct outreach to identify and engage high-quality talent across EMEA markets, including passive candidates.
• Elevate Candidate Experience: Deliver a fast, transparent, and engaging recruitment process that makes candidates feel valued and gives them a positive impression of WorkMotion.
• Partner with Hiring Managers: Act as a trusted recruitment partner, advising hiring managers on talent availability, salary benchmarks, market trends, and sourcing strategies.
• Manage Recruitment Priorities: Balance multiple requisitions, maintain momentum across hiring processes, and ensure timely communication and follow-up with candidates and stakeholders.
• Optimize Talent Acquisition: Use recruitment data and conversion metrics to identify opportunities, improve time-to-hire, and continuously refine our hiring practices.
• Champion Diversity & Inclusion: Promote inclusive sourcing strategies and fair evaluation standards throughout every stage of the recruitment process.

What It Takes to Make an Impact Here…

• 3+ years of experience as a Talent Acquisition Specialist, with hands‑on recruitment experience across both technical and non-technical roles, ideally within EMEA.
• Exceptional organization, prioritization, and time‑management skills, with a high sense of urgency and the ability to manage multiple high‑priority requisitions simultaneously.
• Solid practical understanding of ATS platforms, ideally Workable, and experience collaborating through Google Workspace (Google Docs, Sheets, Drive).
• Proficiency in AI-powered recruitment tools (e.g. ChatGPT/Claude) to improve sourcing, productivity, and candidate communication.
• Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the ability to guide hiring managers towards timely and well‑informed hiring decisions.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build rapport, engage candidates, and communicate clearly across fully remote teams.
• Meticulous attention to detail, ensuring accurate candidate records, clear communication, consistent follow-up, and a well‑managed recruitment process.
• Fluent English (written and spoken), with strong conversational skills and active listening abilities.

Bonus Points If You Bring…

• Experience recruiting within the HR‑tech, SaaS, or Employer of Record (EOR) sectors.
• Good knowledge of international labour market dynamics, compensation standards, and remote‑first candidate preferences.

Not Your Typical Team…

We are a team of 3 high‑energy Talent minds, with 4 in People Operations, based across Germany, Spain, Italy, and Egypt. We’re a motivated, fully distributed crew that proves "remote" definitely doesn't mean "disconnected."

We don’t just work together — we brainstorm, challenge, celebrate, and grow together. If you’re looking for an environment where your ideas are welcomed, cross-collaboration thrives, and high-energy teamwork is the standard, you’ll feel right at home here.
