Description
At Applike Group, we don’t just "fill roles", we engineer the future of our high-growth portfolio companies. As a Talent Acquisition Manager dedicated to Sunday and justDice, your mission is to run tailored, highly targeted searches that acquire the exact Tech, Product, and Business talent needed to fuel their rapid growth. This isn't a passive corporate recruiting seat. We expect you to be a deeply integrated, proactive business partner who understands the strategic trajectory of Sunday and justDice so well that you anticipate talent needs and map pipelines before a formal role is even opened. You will act as the engine that powers their scaling capabilities, combining a relentless hunter mindset with internal cross-functional collaboration. Under the umbrella of the media company Bertelsmann, we have access to a global network of experts and strong financial support. By developing a state-of-the-art tech stack and highly skilled workforce, we aim to reach more mobile users than any other company in the world. If you want to grow your career in tech, challenge yourself in a high-performance environment, while having fun with great colleagues from all over the world, you've come to the right place! MAJOR POINTS OF IMPACT: - 1. Tailored Growth Sourcing (Tech, Product & Business) You own the execution of bespoke talent acquisition strategies designed specifically for the unique, cross-functional roadmaps of Sunday and justDice. - Run highly customized, exhaustive searches across multiple platforms to identify and acquire niche technical profiles, product leaders, and commercial business talent. - Build and maintain continuous passive pipelines tailored to both the core engineering setups and commercial growth engines of your designated portfolio companies. - Focus heavily on outbound acquisition, treating every search like a dedicated mapping project to secure elite talent that inbound channels miss. 2. Integrated Business Proactivity You don't wait for a job requisition to cross your desk; you are embedded in the rhythm of the business. - Partner closely with Engineering Leads, Product Directors, and Business Stakeholders to deeply understand their team dynamics, upcoming projects, and potential skills gaps. - Actively monitor team health and project roadmaps to propose proactive talent solutions, sourcing and validating great long-term fits without needing to be asked. - Transition smoothly from reacting to immediate hiring requests to executing strategic, situational talent mapping. 3. Internal TA Ecosystem Collaboration You don't operate in a silo. You leverage the full power of our centralized TA specialized functions to maximize your output. - Partner seamlessly with our internal Talent Intelligence team to utilize market data, map competitor talent pools, and identify high-yield sourcing vectors. - Collaborate with TA Operations to optimize interview workflows, eliminate process bottlenecks, and ensure candidate data flows cleanly through our tool stack. - Act as the bridge connecting centralized data and operational support directly to the ground-level needs of Sunday and justDice. WHO YOU ARE: - Experience: 3-5+ years of relevant recruiting experience within high-growth environments. Alternatively, a strong recruitment agency background with a distinct passion for transitioning in-house. - Mindset: An exceptionally proactive, self-starting professional. You excel when integrated directly into a business unit, driven by an inherent passion to discover new talent. You exhibit strong agility while navigating complex, fluid, and high-stakes environments. - Sourcing & Collaboration: Outbound sourcing skills combined with a collaborative approach to partnering with internal Operations and Intelligence specialists. - Background: Experience in Talent Acquisition, Consulting, or Project Management is
