Optimus Search | London | £28,000 – £35,000 DOE
Fluent German is essential.
Turn your language skills into a career, not just a job.
At Optimus Search, we've spent 20 years shaping the IT recruitment industry — one placement, one relationship, one great hire at a time. As specialists across Digital, Data, and Life Sciences, we connect exceptional tech talent with some of Europe's most exciting companies.
What started in the mobile market has grown into three market-leading divisions — Optimus Digital, Optimus Data, and Optimus Life Sciences — making us one of the sector's standout names.
Now we're looking for a German-speaking Recruitment Candidate Resourcer to join our London team, working hand-in-hand with one of our top-billing consultants to dominate the German market. This is a pure resourcing role: your focus is finding, engaging, and placing outstanding candidates — no cold business development required.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
