YOUR ROLE AT HOSTINGER
We're at an inflection point — scaling fast, competing for world-class talent, and building an executive hiring function that doesn't exist yet. This is your chance to shape it. As our first dedicated Senior Executive Search Partner, you'll own everything from defining the ideal candidate profile to closing the hire. You'll report directly to the Chief People Officer and work closely with our top leadership team to fill C-suite, VP, and Head-level roles. You'll have the focus and autonomy of an independent partner to build our executive hiring practice from the ground up, and as the function grows, so could your team.

WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE DIFFERENT FROM AGENCY LIFE:
- Stop selling, start hiring - no client pitches, no revenue pressure. Just the work you actually got into this profession to do
- Your hires shape real business outcomes - every placement has a lasting impact you can see, measure, and be proud of
- Working inside the business gives you context no external firm ever has: the culture, the struggles, the ambition behind the brief
- A client that never compromises on quality - a leadership team that genuinely believes in hiring the best, with no pressure to fill a seat fast
- Influence that goes beyond placement - you'll coach and challenge the very leaders you hire with, in a culture where candid, direct feedback is expected and valued
- Build it your way - you're designing the function from scratch, with full autonomy over how the work gets done
- The backing of a fast-growing AI company - real resources with the speed and ambition you're used to
YOUR DAY-TO-DAY
- Own the full executive search cycle end-to-end: profile design, search strategy, sourcing, assessment, offer, and close. This is not a vendor management role.
- Design and drive bespoke search strategies for each role to maximise results and ensure our focus on hiring the best talent locally and globally.
- Coach and challenge senior hiring managers on what great looks like, how to assess it, and how to show up as compelling decision-makers for top candidates
- Build and maintain a proactive pipeline of senior talent in our key markets, so we're never starting from zero.
- Deliver an exceptional candidate experience at every touchpoint — these are the people who will shape our company's future
- Keep a pulse on executive talent markets globally and bring fresh thinking to how and where we hire
YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
- Proven end-to-end executive search experience — from an executive search firm, boutique agency, or in-house function. What matters is that you've personally closed senior candidates, not just managed the process around them
- Exceptional sourcing and headhunting skills, combined with strong interviewing and assessment skills at the senior level
- Real business acumen — you understand what a business needs strategically and can translate that into a sharp candidate profile
- A networker who thinks long-term: you invest in relationships before you need them
- Experience in tech (B2C and/or SaaS) is an advantage
- Fluent i
