Berlin

October 25, 2024

Upvest, founded in 2017, enables any financial institution to offer great investment experiences to its customers. Upvest is an investment firm regulated by the German supervision authority (Ba Fin). The company currently employs 160+ people across Europe with its headquarters based in Berlin, Germany.
The company is backed by the world’s largest venture capital funds and investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, Black Rock, Earlybird, HV Capital, Notion Capital, and ABN Amro Ventures, as well as by renowned fintech entrepreneurs (including Maximilian Tayenthal, founder of N26, and Felix Haas, founder of IDnow).
We’re looking for fintech enthusiasts to join us in creating the financial infrastructure of tomorrow. We’re building the first European Investment API to enable any financial institution offering a wide range of efficient and transparent investment products, such as stocks and ETFs in nominal, portfolio, and fractional form. Our mission and vision is to make investing as easy as spending money.
We’re based in Berlin and we are considering Berlin based candidates for this role.

Team's mission

We are the Talent Acquisition team of Upvest and part of the People Team. Our team consists of three professionals focusing on attracting and hiring top-quality, diverse talents that drive our company’s success. Acting as strategic partners to our stakeholders, we promote our employer brand while ensuring a smooth and inclusive candidate experience.
Our goal is to contribute to the long-term growth and culture of Upvest by hiring individuals who align with our values and mission.

This role will give you the opportunity to:

  • Take responsibility for the recruitment life cycle attracting the best talent for various departments.
  • Develop and implement proactive sourcing strategies to attract top passive and diverse candidates for various roles.
  • Cultivate a strong talent pipeline by using your network, attending industry events, and innovative sourcing techniques to find the best talent.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders and hiring managers advising them on best practices while influencing their decision-making.
  • Act as a strategic partner for the entire hiring team playing a key role ensuring that the right hiring decisions are made.


Job requirements:

  • 3+ years of hands-on recruiting and sourcing experience, preferably in an international, dynamic start up and/or agency environment.
  • You thrive as an individual contributor, taking ownership of your hiring projects while driving data and results independently.
  • Strong ability to assess and evaluate candidate profiles to ensure alignment with job requirements, company culture, and values.
  • You can easily navigate ATS platforms (we use Team Tailor) and sourcing tools (such as Linked In Recruiter).
  • You have a headhunter mindset, excelling at sourcing passive candidates and creatively engaging talent, especially for hard-to-fill or niche roles.
  • You are self motivated, proactive, and resourceful in finding solutions and staying ahead in a fast-paced environment.
  • Fluency in English, both written and spoken.


It’s great if you have:

  • Experience working within Fin Tech or a strong understanding of the financial services industry, particularly in areas like investment, digital banking, and emerging financial technologies.
  • A passion for finance and investing, and a keen interest in staying up-to-date with the latest Fin Tech trends, innovations, and market shifts.
  • Fluency in German, both written and spoken.


Why Upvest?

  • We're working on solving a hard problem: fixing the European securities financial infrastructure that empowers more people to be able to invest. You have the opportunity to contribute to this change.
  • We invest in you. From access to a personal coach, development budget and plenty of opportunities to grow in your role.
  • We take hiring seriously with a strong focus on keeping a high bar when interviewing (equally important is that we hire decent people, who are passionate about their craft and helping us achieve our shared mission).
  • While we're not quite fully-remote, we are committed to being a flexible employer, as we understand you don't have to be in the office to do your best work.
  • We live a culture of empowerment, trust (that we hire the best people and get out of their way) and openness (there's a greater advantage in sharing information than keeping it to ourselves).
Our values:

  • Learn and grow. We aim high to shape our future. We give and request honest feedback knowing that we develop together. Progression over Perfection.
  • Team first. We make it easy for others. We value our differences and are open to others' opinions. We win and celebrate together! Team over Egos.
  • Own the outcome. Whether we win or we lose, we stand together. We are proactive and get the job done. Outcome over Process.
  • Tell the story. We always start with the why. We share knowledge to empower others. Transparency over Complexity.
Upvest is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
