Recruiter / Talent Acquisition Lead (m/w/d) – Build Our Hiring Engine

About the Role

At Revenue Excellence Partners (REP), we build dynamic sales teams and recognize that our growth relies entirely on one factor: having the right people on board. This is where you come in. We are not looking for a recruiter who only manages applications but an entrepreneurial talent acquisition lead who treats the entire hiring function as a unique product. You drive it independently, measure its success, and constantly improve it. If a week passes without a new hire, you want to know why and have the answer before we even ask.

Primary Objective

• Consistently acquire high-caliber Sales Development Representatives (SDRs) rapidly, maintaining quality and volume.
• Develop and refine the recruitment process, tracking systems, sourcing channels, and employer branding around this mission.

Key Responsibilities

• Fill the talent pipeline proactively. Actively source and pursue strong candidates instead of waiting for applications.
• Prioritize quality over quantity in candidate funnels by honing a keen sense of identifying the right SDR profiles so that only fitting candidates reach selection calls.
• Maintain rigorous data oversight throughout the entire funnel—sourcing to interview to hire—spot bottlenecks independently, and manage outcomes using data-driven strategies.
• Improve processes by questioning existing workflows and tools, including AI-powered screening steps, and contribute new ideas.
• Develop our employer branding and candidate experience by enhancing job postings, channel use (Join, LinkedIn, etc.), and communication flows.

Additional duties include end-to-end SDR recruitment, active sourcing via multiple platforms, creating and managing recruiting dashboards (tracking conversion rates, time-to-hire, channel performance), establishing alert systems to prevent pipeline shortages, optimizing interview setups and tools continuously, and collaborating closely with management and sales leadership regarding staffing needs and contractual terms.

Candidate Profile

• Proven track record in recruiting, ideally within sales, startup, or high-volume environments.
• Strong ownership mindset, able to independently drive tasks and think entrepreneurially without tight supervision.
• Expertise in active sourcing to locate and attract talent proactively rather than relying on inbound applications.
• Excellent intuition for assessing people and profiles quickly to identify potential and fit.
• High self-motivation and ability to work at pace within a fully remote setting.
• Fluent German communication skills at a negotiation level.

Additional Advantages

• Experience with recruiting tools (e.g., Join) and AI-supported recruiting processes.
• Background in establishing recruiting structures from the ground up.
• Knowledge or experience in employer branding or culture and people management.

What We Offer

• Full ownership to build and shape the entire recruiting function according to your vision rather than just managing it.
• Work 100% remotely with total flexibility, focusing on outcomes rather than presence.
• Direct communication with leadership for swift decisions and strong impact.
• Opportunity to grow along with the company and extend your department.
• A strong team culture with frequent retreats and events.
• Competitive fixed salary plus performance-based incentives (details discussed during interview).
