How to Apply for International Senior Talent Acquisition Manager

at ProVeg

🏢 About ProVeg

ProVeg is a mission-driven organization leading the global shift to plant-based and cultivated foods, reducing animal suffering and environmental harm. Working here means joining a passionate, international team dedicated to transforming the food system, with a culture that values innovation, collaboration, and impact.

About This Role

As International Senior TA Manager, you'll lead full-cycle recruitment for senior and specialist roles across multiple countries, shaping ProVeg's global talent strategy. Your work directly strengthens the team's ability to achieve its mission by attracting top talent who share ProVeg's values.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with reviewing recruitment data dashboards and prioritizing open roles across regions, followed by a call with a hiring manager in Europe to align on a senior role profile. You'd then screen candidates in Teamtailor, conduct a video interview with a candidate from Asia, and later host a training session for People & Culture colleagues on best practices for inclusive job descriptions.

🎯 Who ProVeg Is Looking For

  • Proven track record in full-cycle recruitment for international, senior, or specialist roles, ideally in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.
  • Hands-on experience with ATS (Teamtailor preferred) and using recruitment data to optimize processes and outcomes.
  • Excellent English communication skills, with the ability to craft authentic employer branding messages that resonate with diverse audiences.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, able to train and support hiring managers and People & Culture colleagues across different countries.

📝 Tips for Applying to ProVeg

1

Tailor your CV to highlight international recruitment experience and results, using metrics (e.g., time-to-fill, quality of hire).

2

In your cover letter, explicitly connect your personal values to ProVeg's mission and explain why you're passionate about plant-based food.

3

Showcase any experience with Teamtailor or similar ATS; if you haven't used Teamtailor, mention your adaptability to new systems.

4

Provide concrete examples of how you've improved employer branding or recruitment frameworks in past roles.

5

Research ProVeg's recent campaigns and initiatives (e.g., Veganuary, policy work) to demonstrate genuine interest in their work.
