Job Description

Talent Acquisition Specialist

Belgium, Kortrijk

Our mission 🚀

In 2016, our founders wanted to feed their dogs - named Edgard and Cooper - pet food they could feel good about. The kind of food that was as good for the planet as it was for their pets. But when they couldn't find this, they decided to make their own. Now, 10 years later, our pack has over 200 employees and we are beyond proud to be part of the B Corp movement.

Great recruiters don't just fill roles though. Alongside your day to day recruitment work, you'll help improve our hiring processes, candidate experience, and employer branding. Small improvements, big ideas, smarter ways of working: we're all for it.

And the cherry on top? You won't be doing it alone. you'll join a fantastic 7 person People Pack.
