Recruiter (Sales)

Company

Founded in Berlin, autarc is a ~40 person start-up who were part of Y Combinator’s S24 batch in San Francisco. Our team consists of people in Sales, Tech and Operations, with the Engineering & Product department currently ~20 people, as we continue to grow throughout the year.

Role description

We're looking for an experienced Recruiter to come and join us either on a short-mid term freelance basis or for something that could be full-time and permanent.

autarc is in a period of serious growth right now. With a headquarters in Berlin and office in London, we're expanding into areas that include France, Italy, Spain and Poland whilst also looking to enter into new continents. With that comes the demand to sell. Therefore we need to grow our Sales team by 2-3x by the end of the year.

This Recruiter needs to know what they're doing and be able to hit the ground running, with no hand holding. Given the specific focus on growing our Sales team, we need someone who knows what a good SDR looks like versus a bad one. Do you know the right companies to hire from? How can you trust someone's KPI successes?

Responsibilities will look like the following:

• Own the entire hiring cycle end-to-end
• Keep our ATS tidy and under control due to high volumes of applicants
• Understand what's happening in the market and headhunt the best people
• Work alongside leadership and the Sales team in improving hiring efficiencies
• Be closing from the very beginning in ensuring a high conversion rate
• Remain a high level of personality - pick up the phone and speak to people
• Absorb the culture and learn to know what we look for in a person

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience working as a Recruiter
• An understanding of how an ATS works, preferably Personio
• Clear ability to own things end-to-end
• Knowledge of the Sales world and track record of hiring these people at scale
• In-house, TA experience for a fast-paced, high growth scale-up
• A preference for someone Berlin-based
• Also a preference for someone German speaking (or multi-lingual with French, Spanish, Italian, Polish etc.)
• Either a direct freelance arrangement or German-based contract

What we offer

Perks and benefits depend on whether someone is freelance, part/full-time or on a permanent contract

About us

Right now, 25% of CO2 emissions in Europe are caused by heating our buildings. In order for this to be reduced, the transition towards renewable energy needs to be simplified and made more accessible. There are too few installers to meet the growing demand for heat pumps, and a solution to match this trend needs to be brought to the market.
autarc is developing the leading operating system (OS) for heat pump installers, enabling a more digital and efficient installation process for heat pumps.
Through this, autarc is reducing the hurdles to decarbonizing single-family homes and small apartment buildings in Europe, with the goal to help with the planning and designing of 1 million heat pumps by 2030.
