Talent Acquisition Manager

About the role

This is a 6-month contract based in Copenhagen (hybrid), with a possible path to full-time. You'll sit inside a rapidly growing portfolio company and own all hiring across seniorities and functions — hardware, software, sales, and marketing. You'll inherit and upgrade an AI-enabled talent acquisition toolstack, and build scalable hiring infrastructure at a critical point of scale.

What you'll do

• Inherit and upgrade an AI-enabled talent acquisition toolstack to support high-volume, high-quality hiring.
• Own role intake, hiring manager alignment, and recruitment strategy across all functions and seniority levels.
• Run inbound and outbound recruitment end to end — from first contact to signed offer.
• Manage the full hiring process including contracts and onboarding coordination.
• Coach hiring managers on best practice, structured interviewing, and decision-making.
• Build scalable hiring processes from the ground up, including referral programmes and onboarding frameworks.

What we're looking for

• 4+ years in recruitment, with at least 2 years in-house at a fast-growing startup or scale-up.
• A track record of personally closing hires across both technical and commercial domains.
• Experience owning hiring end to end — intake through to offer signed.
• Strong outbound sourcing skills, including LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean search.
• Comfort using AI sourcing and screening tools in day-to-day recruitment.
• Experience building recruitment structure from scratch — processes, templates, and programmes.
• Fluent English; Danish is a plus.
• Based in Copenhagen, or able to be in the office most days.
• Experience hiring for technical roles in AI is a plus.
