Recruiter m/w/d (100% remote) - German speaking

For Freelance/Contractor Applicants based in the EU It is 2026 and recruiting still feels like a black box. There are enough candidates, enough recruiters and enough interviews happening. Yet companies still struggle to find and hire A-players. The result? Frustration, wrong hires, candidates treated like numbers. Eleva Search is a boutique staffing agency founded by me, Cristina — built on the belief that great recruiting combines structured, data driven thinking with human connection. Exceptional hiring is about precision and strategy: understanding what a client truly needs and finding the gem hidden inside the noise. I work with clients across Germany and Europe, and I'm looking for a motivated colleague to join me in placing mostly technical, and sometimes commercial, roles. Tasks - Identify and attract top-tier candidates through LinkedIn, AI-powered sourcing, and market research - Understand what truly drives candidates, their ambitions, motivations, goals, and non-negotiables - Reach out with personalized messages that earns the candidate´s attention - Build strategic sourcing reports that give clients real market transparency and clear hiring direction Requirements Your A player qualities: - You take ownership, challenging searches don't intimidate you - 2-3 years of experience in sourcing, ideally for technical or engineering roles - Organized, proactive, and comfortable managing multiple priorities - Fluent in German (C1 or above) and English, with the confidence to engage candidates from junior to C-level - Active sourcing is your strength, you know how to identify, approach, and engage top talent others overlook - Curious and always learning, you thrive in startup environments where your ideas and initiative shape outcomes Benefits - Work from anywhere. Home office, coworking space or at the beach — what matters is the work you deliver, and how you get there is yours to decide - Competitive compensation paired with a performance bonus designed around your actual contribution and what matters to you - Flexibility to structure your days around your life, your energy, your priorities - Operate in a quality-driven environment where recruiting is valued as the strategic function it is, with the depth, intentionality, and business impact it deserves What makes Eleva Search different: - Most recruiters operate on assumptions. We operate on data. We use market insights, talent mapping, and hiring analytics to understand where the real A-players are - We believe in precision over volume, laser focused on identifying and attracting high performing candidates who fit the business - We look past CV keywords to assess ambition, motivation, and long term alignment - We have skin in the game. We work with a limited number of clients so we can move fast, and deliver with the care and quality that volume players can't - If you would like to put a face to the name you can find me here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cristina-ionita-b7b103179/ Find more English Speaking Jobs in Germany on Arbeitnow
