Talent Acquisition Partner

•  Proven experience in full-cycle GTM recruiting: sourcing, screening, process management, closing.
• A real, established professional network built over your career, not just online connections, but relationships people actually respond to.
• A relationship-first way of working. You'd rather spend real time getting a placement right than move fast and loose across a large volume.
• Comfort and fluency with AI-assisted sourcing tools and modern recruiting technology. You seek these tools out, you don't avoid them.

• A background that naturally built a strong network, for example a professional community, or years of activity within a specific industry network.
• Prior experience as an external recruiter or headhunter with a track record of network-based, not just inbound, placements.
• Deep familiarity with the EMEA/ UK recruiting landscape.

We're looking for a Talent Acquisition Partner, an experienced, full-cycle recruiter who works differently than most. You don't rely on job boards and cold outreach alone. You've built a real, personal network over the course of your career: people who know you, trust you, and pick up when you call. You bring candidates a level of care and attention that feels more like a trusted advisor than a transactional recruiter. You listen, you follow up, you make people feel genuinely looked after throughout the process.

This role exists because we believe that kind of relationship-driven recruiting, deep networks and high-touch candidate experience, is something we can build inside our own team, instead of outsourcing it to external agencies or headhunters.

• Own full-cycle recruiting for roles across the organization (GTM and beyond): sourcing, screening, interview process management, and closing.
• Source proactively across various platforms and tools, blending modern AI-assisted sourcing with your own network and direct outreach.
• Lead with relationships: reach candidates through your own professional network, not just inbound applications or cold sourcing.
• Give every candidate a high-touch, closely-managed experience: clear communication, real attention, and a process that reflects well on Upwind.
• Fully unlock our internal potential: referrals, employee networks, and every internal connection we have, as a real, ongoing source of talent, not an afterthought.
• Collaborate closely with recruiters across Israel, EMEA, and APJ, and stay aligned with team goals and standards.
