Senior Recruiter

You start your workday with a cup of coffee. Outside, cows are walking. Not as decor, but simply because your office is located on a real working farm in Harmelen. That is CowManager.

We are an international and fast-growing AgriTech company with approximately 250 colleagues, active in more than 45 countries and with entities in the Netherlands, Germany, New Zealand, and the United States. From our scale-up environment, we work daily on technology that makes an impact on farms all over the world.

For that growth, we are looking for a Senior Recruiter who not only fills vacancies but also helps further professionalize recruitment within CowManager.

What will you do?

In this role, you are *the* point of contact for recruitment within CowManager. You interact daily with hiring managers, management, and international stakeholders and together you determine the course per vacancy: from strategy and positioning to selection and hiring. In doing so, you fill various roles, from software developers and business controllers to commercial and operational functions.

Additionally, you play an important role in the further development of recruitment within CowManager. Think of employer branding, improving selection processes, interview quality, and candidate experience. You look beyond just today's vacancy and actively think along about how recruitment should look tomorrow within a fast-growing international organization.

You will also take on an important role towards our foreign entities in New Zealand, America, and Germany. For this, you are the central point of contact from a recruitment perspective, think strategically, and coordinate with international recruitment partners to establish recruitment well worldwide.

At the same time, you remain hands-on. You conduct intake interviews, write job descriptions, actively source via LinkedIn Recruiter and other channels, and together with your part-time recruiter colleague, support all inflow routes within CowManager: from interns and permanent employees to interim professionals and external agencies.

What you will primarily be busy with:

• End-to-end ownership of the complete recruitment process
• Being a sparring partner for hiring managers and management
• Determining recruitment strategy per vacancy
• Actively sourcing via LinkedIn Recruiter, Indeed, and other channels
• Working on employer branding and recruitment projects
• Improving selection processes and interview quality
• Collaborating with a part-time recruiter colleague and HR
• Coordinating with international recruitment partners for our entities in New Zealand, America, and Germany

Who are you?

You are an experienced recruiter who is used to operating independently and taking ownership. You feel at home in a fast-growing and international organization where a lot is happening, lines are short, and recruitment truly has an impact on the business. You are not only strong in execution but also think along about how recruitment can be organized smarter, more professionally, and in a future-proof manner.

You do not need a background in agri-tech, but you get enthusiastic about technology, innovation, and an organization that is growing hard worldwide.

What you bring:

• At least 5 years of experience as a corporate recruiter
• Experience with active sourcing and end-to-end ownership of recruitment processes
• Strong stakeholder management: you interact effortlessly with people at all levels, from hiring managers to management
• Experience within an international working environment or international stakeholder management
• Affinity with IT and software development; you don't have to be a developer but you understand the market and target group
• Proactive and hands-on mentality: if there are no candidates, you go into the market yourself
• Experience with recruitment projects such as employer branding, process optimization, or candidate experience is a strong plus
• Fluent in Dutch and English, both orally and in writing

Nice to have:

• Experience with an ATS system such as Recruitee
• Background in a scale-up or fast-growing international company
• Knowledge of assessments or DISC profiles

What we offer?

• A role with real freedom. You help determine what recruitment looks like at CowManager. You have your own budget, your own approach, and space to test new ideas. If you think a certain tool or platform works better, put it on the table: we are one hundred percent open to it.
• Full-time position of 40 hours with a hybrid work model (at least 2/3 in the office)
• Salary between €4,000 and €5,500
• Variable annual bonus of max 10%
• A unique workplace: a real working farm as a home base
• A warm, driven team with a lot of passion for the product and the sector
• Direct impact on the growth of an international company
• Opportunity to get involved in international recruitment if you want to
