Tech Recruiter (m/w/n)

About the role

Recruitment Circle is looking for a high-performing tech recruiter who can operate as a true delivery specialist rather than a traditional resume sender. The role is based in Berlin and is built around owning recruiting outcomes, improving placement quality, and working closely with clients and technical stakeholders to deliver strong hires.

The company positions itself as an alternative to conventional tech recruiting: instead of mass outreach and superficial screening, the focus is on deep candidate assessment, strong account handling, and delivering hires who stay and perform. Success is measured by time-to-fill, deal quality, and revenue impact.

Responsibilities

• Take ownership of a key account from the first month and run the recruiting process independently.
• Fill roles by finding and qualifying hard-to-reach tech talent through targeted sourcing and deep screening.
• Use structured interview techniques to separate high performers from weak fits and assess real capability beyond the CV.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with practice leads, CTOs, and other senior stakeholders.
• Develop new business opportunities from your existing accounts through strong delivery and account management.
• Work toward clear outcome targets, including an initial placement in the second month, €60,000 revenue by month six, and €250,000 annual revenue by month twelve.
• Collaborate closely with the team in the early phase and contribute to a high-accountability, results-driven delivery culture.

Requirements

• Experience working as a high-performance tech recruiter, headhunter, or delivery-focused recruiter.
• Ability to source passive candidates using tools and channels such as LinkedIn automation, Clay, GitHub, or Stack Overflow.
• Strong interview judgment and the confidence to probe deeply until performance and fit are clear.
• Comfort communicating with senior technical and business stakeholders at an expert level.
• Strong ownership mindset and the resilience to handle challenging roles without losing momentum.
• Willingness to work in a hybrid setup with an initial office-heavy phase in Berlin.

Perks

• Access to a strong recruiting tech stack, including Recruit CRM, Apollo, Clay, Juicebox, and internal automation workflows.
• Commission structure from 5% to 30% starting with the first euro earned.
• Minimum earning potential of 100k OTE for strong performers.
• Hybrid working style in Berlin, with the first 3 to 6 months spent together in the office and greater flexibility afterward.
• Direct, transparent communication and a team culture focused on honesty, speed, and shared results.

Additional information

The company emphasizes a philosophy of building careers and future market leaders rather than databases. It describes its recruiting approach as quality-driven, performance-oriented, and built around long-term impact for clients and candidates.

Mission and performance expectations

Success in this role is tied to measurable delivery outcomes rather than time spent at a desk. The expected progression includes taking charge of a major account in month one, making an independent placement by month two, generating €60,000 in revenue by the end of the probation period in month six, and reaching €250,000 in annual revenue by month twelve.

Working style

The team operates with radical candor, direct feedback, and a strong sense of mutual accountability. The environment is designed for people who enjoy fast-paced collaboration, honest communication, and tangible results.
