Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

With 12 years of recruitment experience under my belt, I know one thing for sure: the best match doesn't come from acting fast, but from actively listening to all parties and creating a clear, scalable plan from the start.

As a Senior Interim Recruiter and Recruitment Manager, I am hired by organizations that want to professionalize, accelerate, or scale their recruitment process.

Whether it's setting up a recruitment strategy, managing a recruitment team, or filling complex vacancies myself, I take care of it.

My track record:

→ 200+ supported clients

→ 500+ successful placements of IT/Technical professionals at Bachelor/Master level

→ Years of experience as a team leader and strategic sparring partner for management and HR

Experience in areas such as: Development (Java, .NET, PHP, Python, Boomi, SAP), Data & AI, Cloud & Infrastructure, Architecture, Security & Compliance, IT Project Management, Agile, ERP, Hardware, Logistics, and IT Management.

What I bring as an interim professional:

I understand the IT/Technical market. I know how scarce talent is, how to find the right people in the short term, and how to structurally set up processes. No more confusing processes, just measurable results.
