We’re redefining how fast-growing tech companies hire by combining data, AI, and human expertise to deliver world-class recruiting.
Our remote team spans across Europe, Asia, and South Africa, united by shared values of curiosity, clarity, impact, resourcefulness, and selflessness.
Tribe partners with some of the most ambitious companies in the world, including Wolt, Glovo, N26, Taxfix, Aleph Alpha, Statista, and About You, helping them attract and retain top talent at scale.
Our mission is simple yet bold: to build great teams for companies that have a positive impact on the world. By embedding seamlessly into our clients’ organizations, we combine strategic expertise, data-driven insights, and a human-first approach to fuel their growth.
We’re entering our next growth phase and looking for a Country Manager to make Tribe the most visible and trusted recruiting partner in Berlin’s tech ecosystem (with spillover into DACH and nearby hubs).
You’ll build the network that opens doors through relationships, partnerships, events, and thoughtful, reputation-first outreach that converts community into revenue.
You’ll report directly to leadership and work across the company to turn credibility into pipelines.
What You’ll Do
Network & Ecosystem
Build and nurture a trusted network among VPs of Talent, People leaders, and founders in Berlin (with potential expansion into other German hubs, Amsterdam, London, Nordics).
Attend, co-host, and sponsor ~3-4 high-quality events per month (dinners, roundtables, meetups), plus weekly 1:1s and small-group dinners to keep the pipeline warm.
Collaborate closely with Tribe’s marketing team to design local partnership and event strategies.
Represent Tribe’s brand with authority and authenticity (clear story, useful intros, real follow-through).
Relationship-Led New Business
Identify and develop warm opportunities through your network and introductions.
Target funded startups (€50M–€500M raised) and enterprise tech/consumer brands.
Lead the full consultative process: from the first meeting to contract signature.

Partner with Tribe’s Delivery Directors to define client needs and scope proposals.
Ensure seamless client handover and onboarding post-close.
