What we do: A-LEVEL

We are the headhunting partner for companies in the start-up and e-commerce industry, strengthening companies with the best industry talents. With me (Maximilian Wolf), you will meet an experienced founder who has already successfully built and sold an agency with 40 employees.

Tasks

We are a headhunting agency in e-commerce in a very good position, as demand is constantly higher than what we can implement. Through the sale of my previous performance marketing agency, I have built a very strong network in e-commerce and online marketing over the past seven years, which ensures high reputation and provides significant momentum for growth.

90% of our mandates work with an advance payment from the client. I, as the founder, am responsible for bringing new clients on board and expanding new customer business.

Now we need a person who will help us place candidates, satisfy clients, and further expand our internal ATS.
