Talent Acquisition Specialist (UK & Europe) Full Time NEW

We are a performance-driven organization where speed, flow, and high quality are the non-negotiable standards. We don’t wait for applications; we create talent pipelines from scratch. We are looking for an elite Talent Hunter to join our UK/EUROPE recruitment desk. This is not a role for “order takers” or CV processors. This role is for a specialist who understands that the best talent is found through unconventional sourcing and secured through direct, high-frequency phone engagement.

THE CORE PILLARS OF YOUR ROLE:

1. Phone-First Engagement

You possess an exceptional “phone-first” mentality. You understand that in a digital world, the phone is your most powerful tool to build rapport and influence. You prefer to pick up the phone to build a connection rather than send a generic InMail. Your success is driven by the volume and quality of your daily candidate conversations.

2. Unconventional Sourcing

You are a master of outbound talent acquisition. You move beyond standard job portals and LinkedIn, using X-ray searching, Boolean strings, and social engineering to find top-tier professionals who aren’t looking to be found.

3. High-Velocity Flow

You operate at a high cadence, maintaining the stamina to handle enormous volumes of candidate interactions without compromising on quality. You are responsible for generating a massive, high-quality candidate flow at lightning speed.

Key Responsibilities:

• Active Talent Hunting: Execute high-frequency outreach and maintain a constant pulse on the market through direct engagement with passive talent.
• Pipeline Generation: Rapidly build and convert a massive volume of candidates to ensure hiring managers always have a “ready-now” shortlist.
• Market Mapping: Use unconventional sourcing methods to map out competitors and “hidden” talent pools across the UK and Europe.
• Rapid Qualification: Conduct high-cadence screenings to assess technical fit, cultural alignment, and motivation, turning “no” into “interested.”
• Stakeholder Partnership: Act as a strategic consultant to the business, providing real-time market insights and ensuring a seamless, high-quality candidate experience.

What You Bring to the Table:

• The “Hunter” Instinct: 1–3 years of success in a recruitment role, with a heavy emphasis on outbound-first sourcing.
• Technical Proficiency: Expert-level mastery of LinkedIn Recruiter and alternative sourcing tools (GitHub, specialized forums, social media).
• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in HR.
• High Stamina: A proven track record of maintaining high-activity KPIs and operating effectively in a high-pressure, performance-driven environment.
• Influence: The ability to sell a vision and open doors with elite candidates who aren’t active job seekers.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience hiring within competitive sectors like IT, Engineering, Manufacturing, or FMCG.
• A background in high-volume, high-velocity agency recruitment or fast-growth startups.

Core Attributes of Our Team:

We hire for grit, unrelenting pace, and accountability. We value team players who are detail-oriented but move with extreme urgency. If you thrive on the “chase” and take pride in your ability to out-hustle the market, we want to talk to you.
