Hiring & Talent Manager (ab 30 Std/ pro Woche) (m/w/d)

Dreamlight Labs develops and produces immersive live experiences, shows, and event formats. We combine music, storytelling, creative concepts, and operational implementation to create events that people can experience live. Behind our formats stands a rapidly growing team that brings creative ideas professionally onto the stage.

We currently have around 20 employees and are growing further. For the next phase, we need someone who can find the right people, set them up properly, and integrate them well into the team.

We're not looking for a classical HR administration, but rather someone who can build our hiring professionally and create the people structures that a growing company needs: clear recruiting processes, good candidate management, structured onboarding, maintained talent and freelancer pools, clean employment contract processes, and better internal documentation.

In this role, you'll ensure that many individual personnel issues become a functioning system. You'll relieve the management team and team leads in hiring, keep processes together, and help Dreamlight Labs grow from a fast-growing 20-person team to a professionally established organization.

Aufgaben

In this role, you'll build our hiring and the most important people processes actively. Your focus will be on finding the right people for Dreamlight, guiding them through the application process, and ensuring that new team members and freelancers start smoothly.

You'll take over especially:

• Recruiting coordinate: You manage open positions, keep hiring pipelines up-to-date, and ensure that applications don't lie around.
• Job postings create and optimize: You formulate job descriptions for JOIN and other channels and improve them continuously based on feedback and candidate quality.
• Candidate management take over: You review applications, coordinate next steps, and communicate professionally with candidates.
• Interviews organize: You schedule dates with founders and team leads, prepare conversations, and keep feedback and decisions up-to-date.
• Active sourcing build: You actively seek out suitable talents and test new ways to win good people for Dreamlight.
• Talent and freelancer pool maintain: You nurture contacts with exciting candidates, freelancers, and potential future team members.
• Onboarding structure: You ensure that new employees and freelancers clearly know what they need, who to contact, and how to start well.
• Employment contract processes coordinate: You collect all relevant information, prepare contracts based on existing templates, and finalize versions with management and external advisors as needed.
• Internal documentation improve: You structure our wiki, document recurring processes, and make knowledge easily accessible.
• People routines organize: You help to better structure employee conversations, feedback processes, and team topics.
• Management and team leads relieve: You keep personnel, hiring, and onboarding issues together, so that decisions can be made faster and clearer.

The focus of the role is clear: Hiring, talent building, onboarding, and people structures, not classical assistance or pure administration.

Qualifikation

You bring ideally:

• Experience in recruiting, talent acquisition, people operations, or a similar role especially in a growing company, startup, or dynamic environment.
• A good sense for people: You quickly recognize whether candidates fit Dreamlight professionally and personally.
• Structure and reliability: You keep applications, follow-ups, interview dates, and open decisions up-to-date reliably.
• Communication strength: You write clearly, friendly, and professionally to both applicants and internally.
• Independent work style: You don't just wait for tasks, but recognize where processes are missing or can be improved.
• Organizational talent: You can manage multiple open positions, candidates, and processes simultaneously without things lying around.
• Interest in process building: You have a desire to build recruiting, onboarding, wiki, and people processes not just to manage them, but actively to build them.
• Safe handling of sensitive information: You handle applicant data, contracts, and employee conversations professionally and discreetly.

More important than a perfect CV is that you understand hiring as a growth driver and have a desire to turn many individual personnel issues into a functioning system.

Benefits
