Senior University Recruiter

Join us in our mission to transform the way people shop and eat, where impact, innovation, and growth drives everything we do. Our People team are the architects of a great workplace where brilliant minds come together to do their best work. From discovering diverse talent and nurturing future leaders, to creating spaces that spark collaboration and crafting rewards that celebrate success - we're passionate about building a culture where everyone can thrive.

We’re looking for a Senior University Recruiter to help us identify and attract top-tier early career talent to join our Engineering and Design teams across Europe. For the first time, our global organizations of DoorDash, Wolt, and Deliveroo will be joining forces for one unified, global internship program and you would be on the forefront of building what this strategy looks like for the EU hiring initiatives and work with a global team. From building relationships with universities to advising on the interview processes, being a part of headcount conversations to planning events and running performance review cycles, you will help build the foundations of this program making it something that can scale and grow each year.

Your impact will go beyond filling roles; you’ll shape how we approach hiring from how we define what ‘great’ looks like in an engineer. You’ll play a key role in how we build diverse talent pipelines and create a seamless experience for every candidate and intern throughout the program. You’ll be the bridge between us and top university talent, helping Deliveroo continue to invest in, build, and grow the next generation.

This role sits within our Engineering Recruiting team and reports into the Recruiting Manager for Global University Recruiting. It will be based in our London headquarter.
