Head of Recruitment Services

Build the recruitment business this industry needs next AI is rebuilding recruitment. The repetitive work is getting faster or disappearing, while judgement, relationships, and business understanding matter more than ever. We’re not waiting to see how that plays out. We’re building the company we believe this industry will need next. In Stockholm, we want you to build it with us. This isn’t a satellite office. Amby Sweden is a full business, and you’ll own its recruitment side: the P&L, the team, the clients, and the quality bar. You’ll lead it side by side with our Managing Partner, who you report to. The direction is set. The Swedish business is yours to shape. What you’re walking into Since 2012, we’ve been the embedded talent partner for ambitious companies such as Lovable. We help them find their people through Embedded Recruitment, Recruitment Projects, and HR-as-a-Service. At Lovable, we made 43 hires in 6 months. You won’t start from zero. You’ll have the Amby Way, plus marketing, finance, people operations, and data from our team in Norway, so your time goes to clients and your team. What you’ll own

• The recruitment P&L: Revenue, margin, utilization, delivery quality, and client satisfaction across every recruitment engagement in Sweden.
• The team. Hire, onboard, and coach the recruitment consultants and delivery leads who’ll grow Amby in Stockholm.
• Commercial: Lead recruitment sales together with the Managing Partner, bring your expertise to every client conversation, and turn first projects into long partnerships.
• Quality: Bring the Amby Way to Sweden, with structured processes, clear KPIs, and a candidate experience people talk about.
• The bigger picture. Spot where clients need more than recruitment, and bring in HR-as-a-Service.

A year from now

• Your Swedish team is fully staffed on client work.
• New clients find you through referrals and repeat business.
• The Amby Way runs in every Swedish engagement, and you review the funnel numbers every week.

You’re probably someone who

• Has led recruitment delivery. As head of a recruitment or talent consultancy, or as Head of Talent at a scaleup.
• Has owned a P&L or a revenue target, and built and coached a team.
• Knows founders, CTOs, and People leaders in Stockholm’s tech scene, and has a track record of winning and growing clients.
• Runs delivery on numbers and uses AI tools every day.
• Asks why, figures out how, and takes ownership of what happens next.
• Works in Swedish and English at a full professional level.

Why you’ll like it here

• Room to make it yours. Good ideas don’t travel through five layers before something happens. You’ll have a seat at the leadership table from day one.
• Work on what recruitment is becoming. We test new tools in real work and figure out where they make us better, and where human judgement still matters more.
• A lot of different rooms. Scaleups one month, established companies the next, with founders and leaders who want to build something.
• People who make you better. Colleagues who share what they know, challenge your thinking, and take on the hard parts with you.
