🚀 Join the team powering SumUp’s European sales engine!

We’re on a mission to scale a team of 1,000+ sales reps across Europe by year-end — and we’re looking for a high-impact Talent Acquisition Partner to help make it happen.

In this role, you’ll take full ownership of the hiring funnel, driving mission-critical volume recruitment that directly fuels SumUp’s growth.

If you love delivering at scale 💥, thrive under pressure ⚡️, and are excited by the challenge of building sales teams across multiple markets 🌍 — we want to hear from you!

💼 What you’ll do
  • 🎯 Own the full recruitment lifecycle for field sales reps across key European markets — from sourcing to offer to onboarding.

  • 📈 Deliver 18 onboardings per month (or 24 hires) and help us continuously improve conversion from offer to start.

  • ⚙️ Optimize the funnel by designing efficient, high-conversion processes and using data to track bottlenecks & improve outcomes.

  • 🌐 Manage high-volume pipelines across multiple geographies and languages.

  • 📣 Shape employer brand strategy by boosting visibility and application flow through branding, sourcing campaigns, and local insights.

  • 🔍 Use hiring metrics to scale smarter and identify new ways to improve efficiency & impact.

  • 🤝 Act as a growth enabler by directly influencing our ability to reach new customers through the salesforce you help build.

🧩 What you bring to the table
  • ✅ Proven track record in high-volume hiring (15+ hires/month minimum — more is a bonus!).

  • 💬 Experience hiring commercial or sales roles — you speak their language and know how to close top performers.

  • 🔎 Strong sourcing skills (Boolean, social, referrals… you’ve got the tools & tenacity to build robust pipelines).

  • 🛠️ Process ownership: you’ve run a full recruitment funnel before, move quickly, juggle multiple roles & keep hiring on track.

  • 💪 Resilient & results-focused — you don’t just solve problems, you anticipate them and stay two steps ahead.

🌟 Bonus points if you…
  • Speak English plus another European language (German, French, Portuguese, Dutch or Italian).

  • Come from a high-volume and/or agency background.

Why you should join SumUp

  • Opportunity to work with a truly global, multicultural team (we are 3000+ people from 93 countries, spread across 4 continents).
  • Learning & development budget for attending conferences and external training
  • We offer a corporate pension scheme, 28 days’ paid leave, free German and yoga classes, subsidised Urban Sports Club membership and other great benefits.
  • An amazing team and work environment that works with passion and purpose to achieve incredible results.
  • We get together regularly for breakfasts, team events, office parties and sports.
  • You’ll be based in the heart of Berlin, one of Europe’s leading tech hubs and most vibrant cities.
