About the Job

We are not looking for a traditional recruiter focused only on managing processes. We are looking for a talent hunter — someone highly proactive, analytical, and relentless when it comes to identifying and attracting exceptional people.

You will own the recruitment lifecycle for a wide variety of positions across the company, from highly creative profiles such as Scriptwriters, Thumbnail Specialists, Editors, and Content Creators, to analytical and operational roles in Product, Operations and Analytics.

This role combines recruitment strategy, sourcing, employer branding, process optimization, analytics, and high-volume hiring execution. You will work directly with hiring managers and leadership to help scale one of the fastest-growing media companies in Europe.

As a Talent Acquisition Specialist, your core responsibilities will be:

• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle, from briefing and sourcing to interviewing, coordination, and offer management across multiple departments.

• Actively identify and approach top talent through LinkedIn, portfolios, communities, referrals, databases, and unconventional sourcing channels.

• Lead and execute massive hiring projects simultaneously while maintaining speed, organization, and candidate quality.

• Track and analyze hiring funnel performance, sourcing efficiency, conversion rates, and time-to-hire metrics to continuously improve recruitment outcomes.

• Evaluate candidates across both creative and data-driven disciplines, adapting interview methodologies depending on the profile.

• Continuously improve recruiting workflows, documentation, pipelines, scorecards, and operational efficiency to ensure process optimization.

• Employer Branding - Help position QforMedia as a top employer within the creator economy, media, AI, and digital content industries.

• Partner closely with managers, team leads, and leadership to deeply understand hiring needs and ensure excellent candidate experience.

• Maintain structured pipelines and talent pools for future hiring needs using ATS and operational tools.

• Explore and implement AI tools, automations, and scalable systems to improve sourcing, screening, and recruiting operations.

What we're looking for:

• Strong Hunter Mindset - You genuinely enjoy searching for talent, reaching out proactively, and convincing high-potential candidates to join ambitious projects.

• Analytical & Data-Driven - You are comfortable working with metrics, recruitment funnels, KPIs, and performance analysis to improve hiring results.

• Autonomous & Ownership-Driven - You move fast, solve problems independently, and don’t wait for perfect instructions to execute.

• Highly Organized - You can manage multiple hiring processes simultaneously without losing structure or attention to detail.

• Excellent Communication Skills - You know how to communicate professionally and persuasively with both creative and technical candidates.

• Adaptability - You thrive in fast-changing startup environments where priorities evolve quickly.

• Curiosity for AI & Modern Recruiting - You are genuinely interested in AI tools, automations, sourcing innovations, and new recruiting methodologies.

• Resilience & Persistence - You are comfortable handling rejection, difficult searches, and challenging hiring goals without losing momentum.

• Recruitment Experience - Previous experience in Talent Acquisition, Recruiting, Headhunting, or People Operations is required. Experience hiring for creative, media, tech, analytics, or startup roles is a strong plus.

• Advanced English & Spanish level (deal-breaker)

Who We're Looking For

We’re looking for a recruiter with ambition, intensity, and strong execution capacity. Someone who combines the persistence of a headhunter with the structured thinking of an operations professional.

You are highly proactive and results-oriented. You don’t wait for candidates to apply — you go out and find them. You know how to identify talent quickly, evaluate potential beyond CVs, and keep processes moving with urgency.

You are also analytical by nature. You enjoy understanding hiring metrics, optimizing funnels, and improving systems to make recruitment more scalable and effective.

Most importantly, you are excited by the challenge of helping build high-performing teams inside a fast-growing digital media company where creativity, technology, analytics, and AI constantly intersect.

You will play a key role in shaping the future of QforMedia by bringing exceptional people into the company.
