    • Why we will love you

    Our aim is to recruit people with the IKEA culture and values in their hearts, competencies in their backpacks, and the capacity to grow and develop within the role and organization in their minds.
    We believe that diversity sparks creativity and we work to have an open, inclusive and honest environment where we’re constantly trying to find better ways to get things done and to bring out the best in ourselves and others. Of course, we also have bad days when ends don’t meet up, and this is also okay. We are all people and that’s the “POÄNG” (Swedish for “point” but also a very comfy IKEA chair).

    We are looking for people who love to recruit and as recruiters ourselves we love to ask questions, so to break it down:

    • Do you have the ability to build good, strong and sustainable relationships and partnerships in and outside an organisation?
    • Are you passionate about the technical space in an organisation with various complexed roles and who loves to get to know people?
    • Do you have the ability to coordinate, an high attention to details and being proactive?
    • Would you say you have great communication and strong stakeholder management skills?

    Still with us? We thought you might be!

    We see that you have a minimum of 8 years of experience within the IT/digital recruitment field with complexed technical roles and are used to working in a fast-paced environment with multiple stakeholders involved. Since sharing is caring, we would need you to know how to search, map and reach out on different platforms like LinkedIn, Naukri, GitHub, Google etc., and know your way around the recruitment process for technical roles.

    You have the ability to coordinate and drive parallel processes and you are used to initiating projects and driving them forward, while not losing sight of the significance of the candidate's experience and quality. We also see an importance that you have the seniority to be a great partner and talent adviser in how we recruit at IKEA, both guiding and challenge if needed in the hiring decisions. If you have previous experience as an In-house recruiter it’s a plus.

    Great business starts with people, help us find them!

    What you'll be doing day to day

    In your role as Recruiter for Group Digital, you are part of a fantastic team that supports our global digital organisation with their recruitment needs. You do this by creating a strong pipeline of diverse and talented candidates and fill end to end-job vacancies in our hub in Bangalore, India.
    You will be a daily partner and adviser to the hiring managers, coaching, challenging and supporting them to create a great candidate experience and sign off the best candidates in the world.
    With the cooperation of the extended team in People & culture Operations such as Mobility, People & Culture Admin, Compensation & Benefits, and Co-worker Relations, we secure a seamless end-to-end experience for candidates as well as hiring managers from initiation of the recruitment until the new colleagues first day.

    The role is a permanent position based in our Banyanhult office in Bangalore, India. We have the flexibility to work both from home and our fantastic office, but since connecting with people to co-create and collaborate is important to us, we see that you have the possibility to commute minimum 2-3 days per week to our office Banyanhult.

    About this work area

    IKEA is all about people, and our team make sure to bring the best people on board to keep our strong spirit of togetherness. We believe that different experiences and backgrounds collectively make us wiser and stronger, and we ensure that our co-workers bloom into their best selves as they contribute to our business.
