Founding Recruiter (m/f/x) - Münster or Munich (m/w/d)

Invest in Values. Produce in Freedom. Boost Europe.

Behind every megawatt hour our clients save, there are people who make it happen. RIZM helps Europe's largest industrial companies – together around 2% of Europe's total energy demand – make their energy decisions with AI. Our agent RIZMO works as a digital colleague. But the most important colleagues are the ones we haven't found yet.

That's where you come in: you work directly within our recruiting team and help build it from the ground up, hand in hand with us – not as application admin, but as a growth engine. Who we hire today shapes who RIZM is tomorrow.

Tasks

Build tomorrow's team: You work directly within the team, design our recruiting structure together with us – roles, workflows, tools – and later bring more recruiters and sourcers on board yourself.

Find the right people: Track down engineers, energy experts and product people via LinkedIn, Juicebox, universities, communities and your own network.

Win people over: Lead first conversations, tell our story convincingly and make sure every candidate feels well looked after – even when it's a no.

Make processes smart: Automate sequences, screening and reporting with AI instead of maintaining spreadsheets.

Steer by numbers: Always know where the funnel gets stuck – and turn the right dials.

Get us seen: Shape how RIZM is perceived as an employer – careers page, job ads, events, university partnerships.

Requirements

Background: Degree in psychology, business, HR management, social sciences or something comparable – or a path that prepared you just as well.

Experience: You've worked in recruiting or talent acquisition, ideally in startups or tech, and know how to approach technical profiles.

People sense: You spot potential even when it's not on the CV, and you can talk to engineers as equals.

Tech affinity: You try out new tools, build your own workflows and enjoy making things more efficient.

Builder drive: You don't want to step into ready-made structures – you want to create them, independently, reliably and fast.

Languages: Fluent German and English, written and spoken.

Benefits

A network that moves you forward: Sparring, mentoring and learning with the networks of our investors Point 9 and Earlybird.

Performance counts: Great work gets noticed here – and rewarded directly.

Once a year, we get out: A team workation with everyone, including conversations with inspiring guests like Robert Habeck, Kitty Mayo or James Vincent.

Stay fit: Urban Sports Club membership for sport and health, on your own schedule.

We like working together in the office – in Munich or Münster. Recruiting thrives on short distances, and the best ideas come up at the same table.

In your application, tell us about the hire you're proudest of – and what you'd do differently here first.

Questions upfront? Your contact person is Diana Pashaian – feel free to reach out directly.

Leistung zählt: Ungedeckelter variabler Anteil plus Equity – gute Arbeit wird bei uns sichtbar und direkt belohnt.
