Are you ready to join us?

The mission

Attract the best talent on the market and turn recruitment into a real growth engine for Back Market : structured, data-driven, and a true Business Partner to the company. You'll lead that shift end-to-end:

• Drive the transformation

• Grow the team into strategic partners

• Move TA from "fill the role" to "architect the talent strategy."

What you'll actually do

Set the TA strategy

• Define and drive the TA roadmap, in lockstep with business goals and the CHRO.

• Personally lead our most complex executive searches: every ExCo and senior leadership hire (L4+, Directors, Heads of, VPs, C-suite).

• Sharpen the talent pipeline across all verticals : quality, depth, and time-to-readiness.

• Decide when to bring in specialised headhunters, based on role criticality and how scarce the profile really is.

• Run criticality management like a control tower: every open role mapped, urgency qualified, sourcing resources arbitrated accordingly.

Make the candidate experience match the brand

• Guarantee a candidate journey that reflects Back Market's values and employer brand at every single touchpoint.

• Pilot candidate satisfaction: NPS by vertical, friction points identified, action taken.

• Keep the experience consistent across France, the US, APAC and Spain.

Build for scale, not for firefighting

• Structure, optimise and scale recruitment processes to keep up with our growth

• Build and enforce unified intake processes, scorecards and SLAs across all verticals.

• Partner with RecOps on ATS deployment, data quality, and automating the low-value stuff.

• Bring AI tools in as a real efficiency lever for the whole team

• Lead the broader TA organisational transformation and projects.

Be a real Business Partner

• Work shoulder-to-shoulder with top management and functional leaders to align hiring with what the business actually needs, in real time.

• Calibrate directly with ExCo on every senior hire.

• Build clean interfaces with People Partners, C&B, L&D and HRIS so HR feels seamless from offer to onboarding.

• Team up with People Partners on internal mobility

• Help design and run promotion processes: talent identification, decision panels, eligibility criteria.

• Coordinate our international recruiters in the US and APAC.

Run TA on data

• Build and maintain real-time dashboards as the control tower of TA efficiency.

• Implement criticality and prioritisation indicators for every open role.

• Set up the conditions for clean, reliable, ExCo-grade TA reporting across the full recruitment cycle.

• Partner with RecOps to lock in ATS data quality and automate reporting pipelines.

Lead and grow the team

• Directly manage TA team

• Coach team members and keep raising the bar on their skills and impact.

• Build a real Business Partner culture inside the team: understand the business, embed in it, challenge it.

• Coach TAs to read the organisation and step into an advisor posture.

• Create the conditions for each TA to sit in the business committees of their perimeter.

• Foster a positive, collaborative team culture

• Own RPO governance: select and contract partners, define SLAs, manage 6-12 month rotations.

Who we're looking for

Experience

• 10+ years in Talent Acquisition, with at least 4 years managing a TA team.

• Background in a consulting firm or high-growth tech environment is a strong plus.

• You've led a TA organisational transformation before

• You've personally recruited at executive and senior management level, including complex headhunting mandates.

• You're comfortable working with top management and leadership: Partners, Directors, C-suite.

• You know the RPO model inside out: selection, contracting, governance.

• Data-driven TA management is second nature : KPIs, dashboards, reporting to senior leadership.

Skills

• Designing and driving a TA strategy that's anchored in business goals

• Strong analytical mindset: KPI tracking, Kanban, real-time dashboards, fluent Google Sheets.

• Solid command of recruitment tooling: LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS platforms, Google Workspace.
