Team mission

Talent Acquisition is a top strategic priority at GetYourGuide. Our Technical Recruiting team partners across Engineering, Data, Product, and Design, a tech org of over 500 people, to find the people who will shape our future, with a candidate-centric approach that ensures a high-quality experience at every stage

We're looking for a player-coach: someone who wants to keep recruiting hands-on while also building and leading a team. As Tech Recruitment Lead for our Data & Product vertical, you'll split your time evenly between personally owning critical searches and leading the team of 4. You'll report to the Senior Technical Recruitment Lead and work alongside the Engineering & Design vertical to keep practices consistent across the wider team.

Your mission

• Directly lead and coach a team of 4 covering Data and Product hiring
• Partner with Data and Product leadership to define hiring priorities, calibrate the hiring bar, and deliver quality hires
• Set strategic direction for the vertical (prioritization, channel mix, and process) in line with wider Technical Recruiting goals
• Own recruitment metrics and reporting for the vertical (time to hire, pipeline conversion, source effectiveness) and use them to drive decisions
• Get hands-on with sourcing and recruiting for senior, niche, or otherwise critical roles
• Partner with Talent Ops to improve recruiting processes and keep hiring operations scalable as the vertical grows
• Champion a strong, consistent candidate experience across every stage of the process

Your toolkit

• 6+ years of technical recruiting experience in fast-moving, high-growth tech environments
• Proven principal-level sourcing/recruiter craft: you have personally closed multiple Staff+, Senior leadership or niche engineering hires
• 1-2+ years of people management experience with evidence of growing and retaining talent
• Data-driven operator: you live in the metrics and use them to influence direction
• Expert at building new channels from scratch and scaling them (open-source, events series, employee referral programmes, CRM systems etc.)
• Confident in partnering with and influencing senior stakeholders
• Experienced improving recruiting processes and operations, not just running the ones that already exist
• Able to navigate ambiguity and shifting priorities while keeping the team and stakeholders aligned
• You’re energized by AI: you make time to experiment, build intuition through hands-on trials, and translate discoveries into practical improvements in how you work.

How we’ll make your career journey extraordinary

• Annual personal growth budget and mentorship programs for continuous learning and development
• Work from anywhere in the world for 30 days per year
• A hybrid working approach with three days of in office collaboration (Mon, Tue, Thur) and two days of optional at home focus time.
• Opportunities to collaborate and socialize with team members through quarterly team events and yearly company-wide events
• Monthly transportation and fitness budget
• Discounts for you, your friends, and family on GetYourGuide activities
• Language reimbursement program
• Health and wellness benefits
