Redefine the future of live entertainment tech

Welcome to vivenu, the global leader in event ticketing tech and one of the world’s fastest-growing live entertainment tech firms. We are transforming event ticketing for global leaders like the Grammys, the Golden Globes, Stanford University and the Hockenheimring turning what was once a simple transaction into a strategic business advantage. Backed by over $65 million in funding, our platform empowers event organizers to own their brand experience, unlock deep data insights, and seamlessly integrate ticketing into their digital infrastructure.

With six offices worldwide and growing, we deliver a customizable, intuitive solution and industry-leading support that simplify even the most complex ticketing challenges – helping organizers deliver exceptional experiences and drive real growth.

Join us and build the future of live entertainment.

In this role, your responsibilities will include:

  • Owning the full-cycle recruitment process end-to-end, from the initial proactive outreach and strategic sourcing to the final offer and successful hire.
  • Managing a diverse and dynamic portfolio of requisitions, driving hiring excellence across multiple functions including Sales, Customer Experience (CX), Finance, Partnerships, and other key business units.
  • Partnering closely with Hiring Managers and executive leadership to define precise candidate profiles, build alignment, and make data-driven hiring decisions that support sustainable company growth.
  • Acting as a relentless talent hunter, utilizing creative sourcing strategies, market mapping, and direct outreach to identify, engage, and excite top-tier passive talent.
  • Building strong, trust-based talent pipelines for both immediate and future hiring needs, leveraging your network to position vivenu as an employer of choice.
  • Integrating employer branding initiatives into your daily workflow to deliver a seamless, memorable, and premium candidate experience from the very first touchpoint to the signed contract.
  • Leveraging our Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to maintain data integrity and keep recruitment processes lean, transparent, and highly efficient.

What you will need to succeed in this role:

  • 3-8 years of full-cycle recruitment experience, with a proven track record of managing high-volume or highly specialized cross-functional hiring tracks.
  • A strong background in fast-paced start-up or scale-up environments, meaning you thrive in ambiguity, love building processes, and move with a high sense of urgency.
  • Prior experience in headhunting or executive search (agency background) is preferred, giving you the grit, resilience, and advanced sourcing toolkit needed to land hard-to-reach talent.
  • A sharp understanding of diverse business functions, allowing you to easily pivot between evaluating the technical and soft skills required for GTM and leadership roles.
  • Strategic thinking and a goal-oriented mindset, with the organizational horsepower to manage multiple parallel hiring tracks seamlessly within an agile ecosystem.
  • Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills, enabling you to influence stakeholders internally and act as a compelling brand ambassador externally.
