- Strong collaboration skills with People teams and operational leaders
- Excellent organization and stakeholder management
- Appreciation for data accuracy and process discipline
- A natural connector with curiosity, problem‑solving creativity, and a hospitality mindset

What the job involves
- We are looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist who goes beyond traditional recruiting
- This role is not only about finding great external talent but uncovering the potential that already exists within our teams, amplifying internal mobility, and helping shape an employee value proposition that truly reflects who we are
- As a Talent Acquisition Specialist, you will partner closely with People team members, hiring managers, and leaders across the business to understand talent needs holistically
- You will connect what you see inside with what you observe outside, and bring creative, strategic solutions to staffing and development challenges
- You will manage a high‑volume, fast-moving recruiting engine. Your job is to ensure that nothing stalls: interviews stay on track, ATS remains clean and accurate, candidates feel hosted and valued, and the full recruitment lifecycle flows with efficiency and clarity
- Own the end-to-end recruiting process: posting, pipeline management, CV screening, scheduling, interviewing logistics, offer stages, and onboarding handover
- Deliver a consistent, well-organized experience in a high-volume, transactional hiring environment
- Identify, engage, and assess both internal and external candidates for open roles
- Partner with People team and hiring managers to map internal capabilities, talent movements, and potential succession pipelines
- Build awareness around existing talent pools, skills, and opportunities, and propose activities to reduce time to hire
- Provide creative solutions to hiring challenges based on patterns, gaps, or opportunities you identify
- Keep ATS clean, up to date, and fully aligned with the real status of each candidate and requisition, and help generate accurate reporting and insights to support People team and business decision‑making
- Create an exceptional, welcoming experience for candidates and internal talent
- Ensure communication is timely, respectful, and human throughout the process
Our take
Renting an apartment abroad can be a complicated and expensive process. Ukio solves this problem by making it easier to lease an apartment in prime city locations.
Ukio was founded by two veterans of Knotel and Airbnb, and the company functions similarly to the latter. However, it differentiates itself from Airbnb and other rental sites by focusing on the mid-length leases and fashionable locations typically favoured by professional remote workers. The company has benefited from the increasing number of people looking for flexible short-term rentals, especially in major international hubs.
Having already expanded into Germany and Portugal, it is using recent investments to enter the French and Italian markets, with longer-term goals to establish a presence in the UK and Ireland. It is also building a B2B solution for international businesses to allow them to offer accommodation to their remote employees.
