Location: Bucharest, office-based for the first 3 months, hybrid afterwards.

Main Purpose of the Job: To keep recruitment projects moving with speed and quality, from understanding what the client really needs to placing the right person, while learning the consultative way PuntoUP works with companies and candidates.

Job Profile:

• Calibrate each recruitment need with the hiring manager: role requirements, team context, salary range and candidate expectations.

• Build the sourcing plan for every project and choose the channels that actually reach the right profiles.

• Write, publish and manage job ads on the relevant platforms.

• Source and approach candidates directly through LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, our database and professional networks.

• Coordinate interviews between candidates and hiring managers and keep feedback flowing on both sides, on time.

• Manage the candidate relationship from first contact to offer acceptance.

• Keep recruitment records accurate and report on the progress of each project.

• Get involved, step by step, in client relationships and business development alongside the senior team.

• Gradually take ownership of end-to-end recruitment projects, with guidance from experienced colleagues.

Candidate Profile:

• Experience in a client-facing role (sales, account management, customer service or consulting)

• Exposure to recruitment or HR is an advantage, not a requirement.

• Strong communication skills and the confidence to talk to candidates and hiring managers alike, by phone and face to face.

• Genuine curiosity about people, organisations and industries, including technical ones.

• Analytical thinking and the ability to assess information objectively, separating facts from impressions.

• Good organisation and attention to detail, with the ability to run several projects in parallel.

• Initiative, accountability and a real willingness to learn.

• Good command of English, written and spoken.

• University degree preferred.
