Recruiter (m/w/d) | T-1 VC Backed Stealth Startup with 80+ Employees
Stealth Start-up (Mobility, Berlin)
Job Description
<p>You'll work directly with our Head of People as the second person in a small, high-trust People & Talent function in our <strong>T-1 VC backed Mobility Start-up.</strong> Currently <strong>75+ people across 3 locations and 14+ stores in Germany</strong>, hiring toward ~95 by year-end and heading into our next stage.</p>
<p>This is a build role, not a maintenance one: You'll <strong>own projects end-to-end</strong>, work with real data, and operate at the intersection of operations, strategy and execution.</p>
<h2>Tasks</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Kill manual work.</strong> Find the processes that shouldn't exist and remove them — Notion hygiene, HRIS setup, workflow automation. You treat "we've always done it manually" as a bug.</li>
<li><strong>Recruiting, with full ownership of your own roles.</strong> A reliable bridge between candidates and hiring managers. You run a defined set of positions yourself; the senior and hardest-to-fill searches stay with the Head of People, so you're set up to win, not to drown.</li>
<li><strong>Onboarding & offboarding, end to end.</strong> From signed contract to a productive first week, and to clean, correct exits. Built to scale, not just to work once.</li>
<li><strong>Compliance and operations, airtight.</strong> Employment contracts, certificates, references, compliance documentation across all sites — accurate and on time, every time.</li>
<li><strong>Employee benefits, evidence-based.</strong> Research, benchmark, and implement benefits from data, not gut feel.</li>
<li><strong>Employer brand & job-ad content.</strong> Help craft how our roles and culture show up to candidates — sharp job ads, careers content, a hiring experience people talk about. <em>(If you also bring paid-channel skills, great, but it's not what this role is judged on.)</em></li>
<li><strong>Your own judgment.</strong> If you spot something missing or broken, you say so — and then you fix it.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Requirements</h2>
<ul>
<li>Some experience in start-up ecosystem and/or people systems is a definitive plus. Internships count.</li>
<li>Structured and precise: nothing falls through the cracks, nothing gets left half-finished</li>
<li><strong>Fluent German (C2)</strong> is a hard requirement. Professional-level English</li>
<li>You think in systems: if you do something twice, by the third time you're already building the process</li>
<li>Works independently and closes the loop without being chased</li>
<li>Discreet – you'll handle sensitive information and take that seriously</li>
<li>Comfortable with ambiguity and able to prioritise when everything feels urgent</li>
</ul>
<h2>Benefits</h2>
<p>Our Offer: Small HQ team, high intensity, and big outcomes. You’ll move fast and work directly with leadership who trust you to deliver.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Huge End-to-End Ownership:</strong> Make a real impact from day one across functions. Shape a fast-scaling platform at its inception.</li>
<li><strong>Accelerated Career Gro
