About the Company
You will be joining a fast-growing wellness and massage company that currently operates in five German cities and is expanding to seven. The company is known for a high-quality, above-and-beyond approach to customer service, and its People team is scaling hiring quickly to keep pace with that growth.

The Role
As a Recruiter, you will be the first voice candidates hear from the company. You will reach out to new applicants quickly, pitch the opportunity with energy and confidence over the phone, and run initial screenings so the strongest candidates move forward without delay.
You’ll work closely with the Head of People and the wider recruitment team, splitting your time between the Berlin office and home. This role is ideal for someone who loves talking to people, moves fast, and cares more about attitude and conversion than job titles.
