About this role
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES • Interview Magic: You run structured, respectful, and spot-on interviews that cut through the noise and reveal who really fits – especially on the shop floor and in blue-collar roles. • Smart Sourcing & Funnel Fun: You build clever recruiting funnels, use creative sourcing hacks, and find talent where no one else is looking – guerrilla recruiting is your thing. • Employer Branding in Execution: You execute and run employer branding activities – from student team sponsorships to hands-on ambassador work across channels. • Talent Pool Party: You grow and nurture a strong talent pool, stay in touch with great people, and keep the conversation warm – so when it's go-time, you're ready. • Hiring Support Superpower: You coach our hiring managers, bring energy into their recruiting game, and help make the hiring process smoother, faster, and just plain better. • Idea Generator & Status Quo Challenger: You question what’s always been done, throw in bold new ideas, and push recruiting forward with a big dose of passion and curiosity. YOUR PROFILE • People Skills with a Paper Trail: You've got a degree (bonus points for HR focus!) or solid training plus hands-on experience in the world of recruiting – you know your stuff, and you’ve lived it. • Full-Cycle Hiring Hero: You've steered the whole recruiting ride from first contact to signed contract – ideally also in production or blue-collar settings. You own the process, start to finish. • Sourcing Ninja + Interview Ace: You know how to find great people, ask the right questions, and use the right tools to back it all up – with data as your co-pilot. • Space Vibes Included: You’ve got genuine excitement for our mission and spread that spark to others. You’re hands-on, proactive, and love making things better – not just talking about it. • Social Media? Employer Brand? Yes, Please! You think like a recruiter and a marketer. You bring fresh ideas to the table and make our brand shine in all the right places. • Languages + Likeability: You speak German and English fluently (C-Level), and your authentic, friendly style makes people feel seen, heard, and excited to join the ride. WHAT WE OFFER • Big Say, Fast Decisions: You get real room to shape things – and we don’t do slow. Short paths, quick calls, let’s go. • Work Your Way: Flexible hours? Mobile work? We’re on board – just coordinate with the crew and you’re good. • Grow Where It’s Going: A fast-moving company in an up-and-coming market = plenty of chances to grow and take off. • Pick Your Perk: Germany Ticket, EGYM Wellpass, or a tax-free GivveCard – your call, your vibe! • Startup Vibes, Real Team: Casual atmosphere, agile team, regular events, and that “we’re building something awesome” energy. • Play Zone Included: Nerf gun battles, Lego builds, a candy bar that never lets you down, coffee crafted by actual nerds, and the comfiest company swag. • From Sketch to Launch: Tired of abstract products? Here, you’ll see what you build – literally – come to life every day. • Lunch That Hits Different: Fresh, tasty, and different every day – our shared lunch break is peak team bonding (and delicious). • Alpine Afterwork: End your day on our rooftop terrace, take in the Alps, and unwind with the team – just the right kind of chill. #LI-onsite About us Blackwave designs, manufactures and ships flight-qualified, commercial off-the-shelf composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) for launch vehicles and satellites.
