IT Recruiter (m/f/d) | Staffing Operations
“We’ve always done it this way”—if this phrase makes your system crash, keep reading.
Your Future Work Environment
You don’t want to work through the tenth process that hasn’t been touched since 2018. You want to figure out what could be done better—and give it a try. New tools, new channels, new ways of thinking. Not because change is trendy right now, but because standing still drives you crazy.
Specific Group: 550+ employees, >25% growth, 25 years in the market. Clients include Porsche, Red Bull, Raiffeisen, and Erste Bank. We’re growing faster than our recruiting team can keep up. That’s why we’re looking for you.
Who is SPG?
- A 7-person People Operations team across 3 locations (AT, DE, nearshore) – you’re not just a cog in the machine; you’re a key player
- Enterprise clients with real IT challenges—no mass hiring for help desk roles
- AI in everyday work. Not just a slide deck, but a daily tool—from Claude Code to n8n automations to our own AI workflows
- Professional external coaching several times a month, right in the office
- OKRs instead of micromanagement. We’ve been working with OKRs for 3 years—you help shape your goals instead of having them imposed on you
- Direct feedback, no office politics
Responsibilities & Expectations
YOUR DAY-TO-DAY AT
: Sourcing IT Experts for Client Projects
- Our enterprise clients need IT expertise: cloud architects, DevOps engineers, solution architects, and data engineers. You’ll find and recruit these experts
- You’ll conduct briefings with clients and business departments, understand their needs—and deliver the right people, not just keyword matches
- This isn’t a staffing agency. You’ll expand our own service lines and teams for these clients
Filling internal roles
- SPG is growing >by 25% per year. You’ll fill new positions internally—from engineering to consulting—just as effectively
- You know our company from the inside, understand its culture, and know who drives growth
Caring: Support After You Sign the Contract
- Your job doesn’t end with the contract. You’re the go-to person for our employees and freelancers
- Onboarding, check-ins, development discussions—you ensure that people stay and grow
Outbound, not just a mailbox
- You don’t wait for applications. You identify market signals—tech layoffs, conference speakers, open-source contributors—and use them to target candidates
- You build outbound sequences, measure conversion rates, and optimize them. A rejection isn’t a defeat—it’s a data point
- You test new channels and formats. What worked yesterday needs to be reimagined tomorrow
From individual roles to growth initiatives
- Sometimes you’re looking for a single specialist for a client project. Other times, you’re managing a major transformation project—with the need to support multiple teams simultaneously
- You see both as part of your job—quickly filling a single role as well as strategically building a team
YOUR PROFILE
: What You Need
- At least 2 years of IT recruiting experience. You’ve filled IT positions and know what sets a Solution Architect apart from an Enterprise Architect
- A passion for tech that goes beyond LinkedIn filters. You’re interested in cloud architectures, AI tools, and tech trends—not because you have to, but because it fascinates you
- Self-motivation. You don’t wait for the next assignment. You spot a gap, come up with an idea, and put it to the test
This is how you tick
- You treat recruiting as a craft with measurable results, not as an administrative task
- You have no problem formulating hypotheses, testing them, and discarding them—even if that means you were wrong last week
- You want to work in an environment where AI isn’t just a buzzword—we use tools like Claude Code in our day-to-day work, and you’re excited to rethink recruiting with them
