Join the team rewriting the rules in private markets.

Moonfare delivers what few others can: the highly sought-after funds and hidden-gem investments that go beyond what most private banks offer. Every opportunity is subjected to a ruthless vetting process; the bar is unforgivingly high. The result? Institutional-quality portfolios for investors who demand more.

Our team combines finance veterans with talent from tech, consulting, law and industries you’d never expect. Headquartered in Berlin, we operate from eight offices across Europe, the US and Asia.

If you're ready to build what's next in private markets, let's talk.

Talent Acquisition Partner (m/f/d)

Our Talent Acquisition team is at the forefront of Moonfare’s growth. As a high-impact team of three, joining our team offers significant opportunities for ownership, autonomy, and professional development. We are evolving from a reactive service to a proactive, insight-led talent advisory function. Our mission is to accelerate Moonfare’s business outcomes by building high-performing, values-aligned teams. Guided by data and a commitment to excellence, we attract, assess, and hire the talent that drives our global success.

You will be a strategic advisor to leaders across our commercial and technology functions. This is not just a recruiting role; you will own complex hiring challenges, shape recruitment strategy, and serve as a go-to expert for your stakeholders. You will manage the end-to-end recruitment lifecycle for a diverse portfolio of roles, from software engineering and product to sales, investments, and legal.

Operating with a high degree of autonomy, you will be trusted to navigate ambiguous requirements, self-direct your priorities, and design scalable solutions that enhance our hiring effectiveness. This role is pivotal in ensuring we hire the exceptional talent required to fuel our high-performance culture.

You Will:

• Act as a Strategic Advisor: Partner with hiring managers and leadership as a true talent consultant. You will coach them on best practices, hold them accountable for an outstanding candidate experience, and guide them to make robust, data-informed hiring decisions.
• Own End-to-End Recruitment: Define and execute bespoke recruitment strategies for roles across our technology and commercial departments. You will manage the full lifecycle, from defining requirements and sourcing to offer negotiation and closing.
• Drive Proactive Sourcing: Go beyond inbound applications to build and engage a strong pipeline of passive talent. You will leverage creative sourcing channels and market intelligence to attract the best candidates globally.
• Leverage Data and Insights: Analyse recruitment data to identify trends, diagnose systemic issues, and propose process improvements. You will use insights to inform hiring strategies, manage stakeholder expectations, and enhance our overall effectiveness.
• Champion Hiring Excellence: Contribute to strategic TA projects, such as designing and delivering company-wide interview training, refining our employer value proposition, and optimising our assessment methods to ensure we consistently raise our talent bar.
• Integrate Transformative AI: Proactively identify and implement AI tools and methodologies to automate tasks, enhance decision-making, and scale our hiring capabilities, with your success being measured against these innovations.
• Manage Complex Stakeholder Relationships: Build trust and credibility with senior leaders, navigating a fast-paced and rapidly changing environment with a persuasive and consultative communication style.

The Next Moonfarian:

• You have 3+ years of full-cycle recruitment experience, ideally in a fast-paced, high-growth technology or finance environment.
• You have a proven track record of successfully hiring for both technical (e.g., Software Engineering, Product) and commercial (e.g., Sales, Finance, Legal) roles.
• You are a strategic partner who can consult, influence, and build strong relationships with senior hiring managers and C-level executives.
• You are data-driven, using analytics to inform your strategy, measure success, and drive continuous improvement.
• You are a proactive problem-solver, capable of self-directing your work, managing complex projects with ambiguous requirements, and handling unexpected challenges with minimal oversight.
• You demonstrate an AI-first mindset, with experience leveraging AI tools to drive efficiency and enhance outcomes in a professional environment.
• You possess a deep-seated commitment to candidate experience, ensuring every interaction is a positive reflection of the Moonfare brand.
• You have excellent verbal and written communication skills in English and are adept at selling our vision and closing top-tier candidates.

This role is unlikely to be a good match if you:

• Prefer to work in silos and focus only on one domain (e.g., only tech), as this role requires a highly collaborative approach and the versatility to recruit across all business functions.
• Are resistant to adopting an AI-first mindset and prefer manual processes over exploring automation and new technologies to drive efficiency and advance our TA function.
• Are uncomfortable with calculated risk-taking and moving at speed, as we aim to innovate and push boundaries within the necessary constraints of a regulated FinTech environment.

We can only accept applications from those eligible to live and work in Berlin, Germany. We are unable to sponsor visas for this position.

This is an in-person first role with office attendance required 4 days/week.

Our Commitment to a Rigorous & Fair Assessment

We believe in a transparent and comprehensive evaluation process designed to understand your unique skills and potential. Our approach is a two-way street: it allows us to see if you are the right fit for Moonfare, and just as importantly, it allows you to determine if we are the right fit for you.

Our process consists of the following stages:

• Combined Talent Acquisition & Hiring Manager Interview (Virtual): An initial conversation to discuss your experience and motivations, and for you to learn more about the role, the team, and our mission.
• Aptitude Assessment: A short, standardised assessment to understand your verbal, numerical, and abstract reasoning abilities, giving us insight into your problem-solving capabilities.
• Onsite Case Study Interview: This is your opportunity to showcase your skills. You will be presented with a real-world challenge relevant to the role, allowing us to see your thought process and strategic approach in action. You’ll get to see our beautiful office space and meet more of the team.
• Values & Leadership Interview with VP People: A final conversation focused on our values, ensuring you will thrive in our high-performance culture.

Invest in Yourself:

• Ownership and Impact: You are empowered to bring ideas, make decisions, and see your work directly contribute to Moonfare's success.
• Transparent Environment: We believe in open communication. You will receive regular updates on company strategy, performance against our KPIs, and key business decisions.
• Personal Growth: We support your development with an individual growth budget of €1,500 or 2% of your base salary (whichever is higher).
• Invest in Your Future: We support your long-term financial goals with a company pension scheme, providing a 20% employer contribution.
• Mental Wellbeing: We provide all employees with free, anonymous access to Nilo.health, a digital mental health platform. This includes daily meditations, self-help materials, and eight 1-on-1 sessions with expert psychologists per year.
• Relax and Recharge: You start with 25 vacation days and you’ll receive one additional day for each year of tenure, up to a maximum of 30 days.
• Daily Lunch: Enjoy a free lunch every day that you are in the Berlin office, with a weekly changing menu that includes salads, curries, pastas, and a variety of vegan and vegetarian options.
• A Culture of Excellence: Join a team of ambitious, smart, and committed professionals who are passionate about revolutionising private market investing.
