Talent Sourcer

About Wincent

We are a team of 120 people, primarily Engineers, Traders and Quants, focused on HFT with ~1% of global crypto trading volume. Being a bit weird, we

• Are self-taught; our founders do not come from any of the big HFTs
• Chose to have no VCs on cap-table; this spot is for our colleagues
• Made Bratislava the central hub, not London or Amsterdam
  
  

Culture

When you do something you love, it does not feel like work. At Wincent work is purposeful and fulfilling.

Integrity is not negotiable

Handshakes are sacred for us. Being in the money making business is good, but that alone is not worth our soul; we follow the motto “Be the good guys in the market”.

Say things as they are

Life is too short for games of politics, fluff, or bullshit in general.

Trust Each Other

We embrace internal radical transparency in terms of compensation, bonuses, and trading strategies.

About The Position

At Wincent, we don’t think that Sourcer is just a junior Recruiter. You will not be a data entry person. You will not be managed by your fellow Recruiters. What you will do is to help build a sourcing function for the company that strives to become the best by hiring the best. If you have fun browsing obscure corners of the internet to find the info you need, if you leave no digital stone unturned, if spreadsheets and data extraction makes you happy, you don’t have to do anything. We know who you are and we are picking you up at 7 p.m. (Just kidding. Please apply.)

About The Recruiting Team

Our recruiting team specializes in sourcing and screening candidates from all over the world. We don’t hire standard frontend or backend web developers. Instead, we specialize in finding hard-core software engineers who are able to optimize micro- instead of mili-seconds, and quantitative researchers and traders who are able to execute orders on 14 cryptocurrency exchanges. We organize community events, competitions, and join career fairs to attract and relocate candidates from all over the world.

Your mission

Join our team as a Talent Sourcer and help us find and engage with the top talent from all around the world. You will be gathering market intelligence, building talent pools and using advanced sourcing techniques and tools to uncover hidden talent.

Compensation, Work Arrangement, And Benefits

• Monthly fixed salary: We will assess your skills and experience during interviews and will propose an amount between €3,000 and €5,000 gross.
• Fund investment: As a member of our team, you have an opportunity to invest in our flagship multi-strategy fund that has annualized over 50% net returns since its inception in 2017. You can choose how much money you'd like to invest.
• Remote/Office: This role requires frequent collaboration with our Bratislava-based team. While we are open to work with remote people, we will prefer candidates within reasonable timezones. You will be expected to come over for the onboarding in person (min 2 weeks) and participate on offsites and events.
• Vacation: If you work full-time, you get 25 vacation days plus 12 public holidays each year, which totals approximately 40 days off per year (yes, that's A LOT!). If you need significantly more than that, you can arrange an unpaid leave with your manager and enjoy your sabbatical.
• Full-day catering: All-inclusive breakfast, lunch, afternoon snacks, fruits, and other treats in our offices save you hundreds of euros every month.
• Additional benefits include unlimited taxi to/from the office, mental health support, education & sports budget, cell phone plan in select countries, maternity leave, and more to boost your productivity.

• Regional hub: Bratislava lies at the intersection of Austria (only 80km from Vienna), Czechia (130km from Brno), and Hungary (200km from Budapest).
