About the job Talent Manager Mid
Please note that this is a remote position but it requires the candidate to be based in Portugal.
What you'll actually be doing:
You'll own end-to-end tech recruitment processes, working with AI-powered tools that help you work smarter and faster. This isn't about "filling reqs" or being an order-taker. You'll proactively identify talent, assess fit (both technical and cultural), and present shortlists to Business Managers that they can confidently take to clients.
The difference? You'll use AI to help you match candidates more accurately, manage interview notes, keep your pipeline constantly filled, and make better decisions faster - while you focus on the human side: building relationships, evaluating fit, and closing hires.
Your day-to-day:
- Own your recruitment processes - from sourcing tech talent to final candidate presentation to Business Managers
- Use AI to work smarter - tools that help you match candidates faster, manage interview insights, and keep your pipeline constantly filled
- Work directly with Business Managers - align on client needs, present candidates, manage feedback, adjust approach
- Source actively - find talent where others aren't looking (AI-assisted, not just posting jobs and waiting)
- Prepare strong candidate presentations - BMs need to trust your shortlists when they go to clients
- Optimize as you go - spot patterns in what works, adjust your approach, improve conversion rates
- Manage multiple processes - typically 5-10 active roles across different tech stacks and seniority levels
What we're looking for in you:
Essential:
- 2–4 years in Talent Acquisition (ideally tech-focused, but strong generalist recruiters with interest in tech are welcome
- Degree in Psychology, HR, Management, Business, or related field
- Hands-on experience with ATS systems and LinkedIn Recruiter
- Fluent English - you'll work with Business Managers who serve international client
More important than anything:
- You're excited about using AI tools - not intimidated by them, but eager to leverage technology to improve your work
- You know how to evaluate talent - AI can help surface candidates, but you make the judgment calls
- You understand the business side - each candidate you present impacts hiring decisions and client relationships
- You think strategically - about candidate positioning, hiring priorities, and timing
- You learn from feedback - spot patterns in what BMs say and continuously improve your approach
What you can expect from us:
- AI-powered recruitment stack - tools that help you match candidates faster, manage interview notes, and keep pipeline flowing
- Real autonomy - you own your processes, your pipeline, and your relationships with Business Managers
- International context - support recruitment for clients across Europe and beyond, diverse tech stacks and business contexts
- Be at the forefront - learn how to combine AI efficiency with human judgment in recruitment
- Continuous improvement culture - we actually want your input on what's broken and how to fix it
- Proper tools and support - ATS, LinkedIn Recruiter, AI tools, and mentorship from people who've closed thousands of hires
- Competitive salary + performance incentives - your results directly impact your earnings
- Remote flexibility - work from anywhere in Portugal
Selection Process:
- Phase 1 - 1 minute Video
- Phase 2 - Practical Exercise Real scenario
- Phase 3 - Careers Team Interview
- Phase 4 - Final Interview with Head of Business, for final validation and hiring decision.
Why this role?
Because if you're tired of spending 80% of your time on admin work and want to actually focus on what matters - evaluating talent, building relationships, and closing quality hires - this makes sense. You'll work with AI tools that handle the heavy lifting (matching, note-taking, pipeline management) while you focus on the strategic and human elements of recruitment.
This is recruitment in 2026, not 2016.
