Senior Corporate Recruiter

Are you a strategic recruitment professional who effortlessly switches between data, employer branding, stakeholder management, and hands-on recruitment? Do you want to help build a future-proof recruitment function within a fast-growing international organization? Then this could be your next step. 

At Karsten International, we process approximately 9,000 applications annually. Recruitment therefore plays a crucial role within our organization. In this position, you will not only be responsible for attracting the right talent, but also for further professionalizing our recruitment strategy, employer branding, and candidate journey. 

As a Senior Corporate Recruiter, you will act as a true business partner to hiring managers and management. You will advise on workforce planning, labor market developments, recruitment strategies, and hiring challenges on both an operational and tactical level. At the same time, you remain closely involved in execution: managing vacancies, conducting interviews, guiding candidates, and ensuring successful hires. 

In addition, you will take the lead in further developing the recruitment team. You will coach the two recruiters, help them grow professionally, and actively steer quality, KPIs, and results.

• Build talent pools and maintain relevant professional networks.  

• Identify market trends and opportunities within recruitment and employer branding.  

• Continuously improve and professionalize recruitment processes and tools. 

   

  The result of your work? A strong candidate experience, high-quality hires, and a scalable, future-proof recruitment process.
