About the role

Academic Work is recruiting a Recruiter for our client in the Västerås/Eskilstuna area. This is a full-time position starting in July, initially until mid-December with a possibility of extension.

We are looking for someone who thrives in an operational and fast-paced recruitment role, responsible for recruiting for all four of our client's offices in Örebro, Norrköping, Västerås, and Eskilstuna. Travel occurs one day a week to Västerås/Eskilstuna, depending on your base location, as well as to nearby cities for interviews and operational collaboration when needed.

Responsibilities

In this role, you are responsible for the entire recruitment process for sales positions – from screening to signed employment contracts. This includes handling selection, phone interviews, in-depth interviews, assessment of test results, reference checks, background checks, and the administration of employment contracts.

You work in close dialogue with the sales managers but are expected to independently drive and own the processes. We are looking for someone who enjoys taking initiative, making independent decisions, and staying ahead of the business's needs. Recruitment happens continuously throughout the year, and your focus will be on proactively ensuring there are candidates in the pipeline for upcoming training starts and vacancies.

We are looking for someone who

• Has at least one year of work experience in recruitment and driving full recruitment processes from start to finish
• Has very good proficiency in Swedish, both spoken and written, as it is used in daily work
• Has completed a post-secondary degree from a university/college in a relevant field (e.g., Human Resources, Behavioral Sciences, etc.)

It is an advantage if you:

• Have work experience in volume recruitment, preferably within sales/customer service
• Have experience with search

We place great emphasis on your personal qualities and are looking for someone who is self-motivated, service-oriented, communicative, and has a natural ability to build relationships. You thrive in a role with significant autonomy where you plan and drive your work forward independently. As a person, you are proactive, unpretentious, and willing to take initiative to achieve set goals. You are motivated by a high tempo, are good at prioritizing, and are not afraid to roll up your sleeves and get involved where needed.

Our recruitment process

We conduct ongoing selection and will remove the ad when enough candidates have reached the final stage of the recruitment process. A CV is required when applying. The recruitment process includes two selection tests: a personality test and a cognitive ability test. These tests are tools to help identify the candidate with the highest potential for the role, as well as to promote equality, diversity, and a fair recruitment process.
