We’re a fast-growing SaaS scale-up on a mission to shape a sustainable future for the food industry. With four years of continuous 100% year-on-year growth, our team is expanding quickly. We’re looking for a proactive, highly organised Recruiter to help us find the people who will drive that growth, and to help shape how we work as we scale. Join us and shape the future of food sustainability with us!
Ensuring responsible supply chains is one of the largest challenges of our time. At Simvia we are on a path to enable the food and consumer goods industry to become a force for good, by making it simple to prove that what we eat and use is safe, compliant, and sustainable.
Several of Europe's largest retailers, from Albert Heijn to Edeka, have joined Simvia together with their suppliers, and our network now spans more than 200,000 suppliers in 130 countries. AI gives us a strong tailwind: our network holds unique data, and much of the manual work in compliance can now be automated. We are growing rapidly and keep scaling with a driven, international team of 75+ people in the heart of Amsterdam.
You will be our first in-house Recruiter. There is no recruitment playbook yet, so you build it: the process, the guardrails and the habits that let us hire fast and well as we scale. That calls for someone who thinks "I'll find a way" rather than "what's the rule here?"
Sourcing is the heart of the job. Most of your impact comes from finding and convincing great people who were not looking. Every person you bring in shapes the company we become, so we want someone who lives our culture, not only someone who can describe it.
Our culture is driven and kind, and it only works if you bring both.
Driven by the mission. You set ambitious goals, own the outcome, and welcome a high bar.
Frank. You say what you think and would rather hear the truth than a comfortable story.
Open. You ask for feedback and change your mind when the facts change.
Trusting. You build real relationships and give others room to own their work.
If this sounds more draining than energizing, that is a useful signal too.
An intro call with our People & Culture team, a conversation with the hiring manager, an assignment, a culture conversation and an offer. Every process includes an assignment, because we would rather see your work than hear about it. We move fast and keep you informed at every step.
We hire people with different backgrounds, cultures, and views because it makes our work better. Whoever you are, wherever you are from, whoever you love and whatever you believe in, you are welcome here.
