Duvo is a B2B SaaS platform that helps large enterprises map, optimize, and execute long-running operational work across their systems (ERPs, portals, email, spreadsheets, calls). The company sells into Heads of Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, and IT at large retailers and FMCG brands, with new deals landing at €100k–€250k ARR and growing through expansion. Backed by Index Ventures ($15M seed) and led by founder Tom Cupr (previously founded one of Europe's largest online grocery retailers), Duvo is scaling rapidly across engineering and go-to-market into new European markets.
As Talent Partner, you will own a portfolio of roles across engineering and go-to-market functions, plus responsibility for European markets where Duvo is expanding. You report to Marko (Head of Talent) and work directly with founders and hiring managers.
Key responsibilities:
- Own the full recruitment lifecycle for your assigned roles and markets: open the role, build pipeline, run process, close offer, and ensure the hire lands.
- Source candidates directly through outbound LinkedIn outreach, referral networks, and AI-powered research. Most target candidates won't apply; you'll have people on calls within a week of a role opening.
- Screen every candidate before they reach a hiring manager. Conduct strong screening calls, document clear notes, and make honest pass/fail decisions.
- Partner with hiring managers to align on hiring bar before CVs arrive, calibrate expectations in writing, chase feedback, and push back on unclear processes or requirements.
- Manage agency partners: brief them properly, hold them to your bar, and remove underperformers.
- Build and maintain a tight, automated hiring process using Ashby, AI screening tools, research automation, and scheduling agents. Automate anything you do twice.
- Ensure every candidate knows their status quickly, whether accepted or rejected.
You'll work in a remote-first environment across Europe with quarterly offsites in Prague. The role offers real ownership of your markets and input into how the talent function evolves.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 3+ years of recruiting experience in-house at a startup/scale-up or at a tech-focused agency, with full-cycle ownership.
- Proven sourcing ability: can demonstrate pipelines built from zero for hard-to-fill roles, not just inbound processing.
- Experience hiring engineers and commercial roles (AEs, partner managers, consultants).
- Experience recruiting across European markets.
- Technical literacy: can read GitHub profiles, understand tech stacks, and have credible first conversations with engineers (no coding required, but cannot bluff).
- Strong bar-raising ability; comfortable making and standing behind pass/fail decisions.
- Exceptional organizational skills; clean pipelines and empty to-do lists matter to you.
- Direct communication style with candidates, hiring managers, and leadership.
- Current daily use of AI tools with desire to push further.
NICE TO HAVE:
- German or another European language.
- Hiring experience in AI or B2B SaaS.
- Experience building recruiting automations (Ashby, Zapier, agents, etc.).
