Is there a Zenika in you?

Let’s talk skills and passion first.

You believe great hiring is about more than filling roles — it’s about building teams, shaping culture, and creating meaningful candidate experiences. You care deeply about quality, fairness, and human-first recruitment, and you enjoy partnering closely with leaders to turn business needs into strong hiring outcomes.

You’re comfortable owning your work end to end, operating in a fast-paced environment, and continuously improving how things are done.
