As a Recruiter at Orbisk, you are responsible for recruiting new employees for the Orbisk team. At the moment, the team is developing quickly: the plan is to hire about five people in 2022, twenty people in 2023 and also expand internationally. You are involved in the whole process from vacancy to onboarding. This means that you will manage the vacancies, have intakes with hiring managers and continuously think of ways to improve these processes. 

When a new position arises, you will make sure you meet up with the hiring manager to map out the wishes and needs. You write a job description and coordinate this process with external partners such as Spielwork and Recruitee. Once the vacancy has gone live, you start recruiting on LinkedIn and other platforms. When you have found an interesting match, you have a brief phone call to see if it actually matches. If this is the case, you will update the hiring manager and make sure that they all the information to take it from there. In agreement with the hiring manager, you will also send out proposals to candidates that you want to hire. Ideally, a vacancy is filled within four to six weeks. 

The actual onboarding of new employees is the responsibility of the Office Manager. However, since the team is still small, you can think about ideas to optimize these processes as well.

You are part of the Operations team, together with a Head of Operations, Office Manager and part time Finance Employee. You report to the Head of Operations, and work closely together with the Office Manager and the Management Team.

If you like to make people enthusiastic about a job and find sustainable matches for a rapidly growing company, then this is the job for you.

Firsthand experience

You have been trying to fill a vacancy for two months, but you cannot find a suitable candidate. What do you do?

You set up a meeting with the hiring manager to tweak the vacancy. Together, you adjust the requested work experience and responsibilities and make sure another employee picks up those
responsibilities. After the vacancy has been adjusted, you come up with an idea to join a (digital) event, because you expect the target group will be there.

Working at Orbisk

Orbisk is a start-up with a clear mission: to make the global food system more sustainable. The start-up provides complete insights into the food flows of hospitality organizations. Orbisk does this by offering a smart camera and scale that uses image recognition to register which food is thrown away, when, and in what quantity. The customer can view this data in the dashboard, which provides insight into food wastage and can be used to reduce it.
