Help shape the next chapter of Qogita's growth.
We're partnering with Qogita, a fast-growing, AI-forward B2B wholesale marketplace, to find an experienced Talent Acquisition Manager who loves building things, solving problems and making hiring happen.
Qogita is on a mission to transform how businesses buy and sell, making global trade smarter, more transparent and more efficient. Founded in 2021 and backed by tier-one investors, they've grown to around 170 people representing 66 nationalities, with hubs in Amsterdam and London.
And they're not slowing down.
With new ventures, international expansion and ambitious hiring plans ahead, they're looking for someone who can help bring exceptional people into the business while making recruitment smarter, faster and more scalable.
The opportunity
This isn't a role where you'll simply pick up vacancies and work through a list.
You'll have real ownership of recruitment, working directly with senior leaders and hiring managers to understand what the business needs, challenge thinking and find the talent that will help Qogita grow.
You'll be joining at a point where there's plenty to deliver, but also plenty of opportunity to improve how things are done.
From building proactive talent pipelines and strengthening hiring processes to exploring how AI and automation can transform recruitment, you'll have the autonomy to make a genuine difference.
What you'll be doing
Owning the hiring plan: Partnering with leadership to prioritise vacancies and deliver against business critical hiring needs.
Finding brilliant people: Leading end-to-end recruitment across commercial, technical, operational and senior roles, with a particular focus on proactive sourcing.
Being a true hiring partner: Working closely with hiring managers, challenging briefs, sharing market insights and driving better hiring decisions.
Building smarter processes: Improving recruitment workflows, structured interviews, assessments and hiring playbooks.
Embracing AI and automation: Finding better, faster and more efficient ways to source, assess and engage talent.
Using data to drive decisions: Understanding what's working, identifying what’s not working and improving recruitment performance.
Strengthening Qogita's employer brand: Working with Growth to tell Qogita's story and attract great people.
Creating a great candidate experience: Making sure every candidate has a positive, transparent and professional experience.
What we're looking for
You'll be an experienced, hands on Talent Acquisition professional who knows how to get things done in a fast moving business.
You'll bring:
Strong in-house recruitment experience, ideally from a startup, scale-up or technology led business.
A proven track record recruiting top talent across all business areas.
Excellent proactive sourcing skills - you know how to find and engage great people who aren't actively looking.
Experience managing multiple hiring priorities independently.
Confidence working with senior stakeholders, including knowing when and how to push back.
Experience improving recruitment processes and using data to make better decisions.
A proactive, organised and commercially minded approach.
Curiosity about AI, automation and how technology can improve recruitment.
Excellent communication skills and professional fluency in English.
Experience in B2B marketplaces, e-commerce, international recruitment or the Amsterdam talent market would be a bonus, but isn't essential.
Why Qogita?
You're joining at an exciting time: Qogita is scaling, entering new markets and exploring new opportunities. There's real momentum and plenty of room to make an impact.
You'll have ownership, not just responsibility: You'll be trusted to bring ideas, challenge existing approaches and take accountability for results.
Technology is part of the DNA: Qogita is an AI-forward business that encourages people to experiment, iterate and find smarter ways of working.
Your work will matter: The people you hire will directly influence the business's next stage of growth.
You'll work with ambitious, talented people: With 66 nationalities across two hubs, Qogita brings together diverse perspectives and a collaborative, people-first culture.
There's a bigger mission behind the business: By making wholesale trade more efficient, Qogita is helping businesses access better prices and creating opportunities to reduce unnecessary shipping and environmental impact.
Is this you?
You enjoy a challenge. You're comfortable with ambiguity, changing priorities and figuring things out as you go.
You don't need everything to be perfect before getting started, but you care about doing things properly. You ask good questions, challenge assumptions and use data to back up your decisions.
You're equally happy getting stuck into sourcing as you are advising a senior leader or improving a process.
Most importantly, you take ownership and genuinely care about the people you bring into a business.
If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
