At Joko, hiring has been a founding obsession since day one. Our founders have always been convinced that you don’t crack a market with a big team, you crack it with a small team of exceptional people. That bet has worked: we’ve grown to 6 million users and become one of France’s most recognized shopping apps with just 30 people in the early years, and we’ve kept the same bar as we’ve scaled past 100.
The Talent team exists because we believe talent is the single biggest asset of a company, and that identifying, attracting, and closing the best profiles is a craft worth investing in seriously. We are constantly experimenting with state-of-the-art techniques, tools, and processes to find the people who will build the future of shopping with us.
Today, the Talent team sits within the broader People function, which also covers People Ops, People Business Partnering, and Workplace across France, Spain, and our growing international footprint into the US. We are a small team with a big scope, and we move fast.
✨ Why this role is special
Recruiting is Joko’s #1 company objective, and as a Talent Acquisition Manager you sit right at the heart of it. Three things make this role genuinely rare:
•
The team is exceptionally involved in hiring. From ICs to managers to founders, recruiting is treated as a first-class responsibility, not something delegated to TA. You will work with hiring partners who actually show up, give sharp feedback, and care about the bar as much as you do. Your debriefs will be real conversations, not rubber stamps.
•
You will have the tools, and the budget, to be on the frontier. We already work with a modern stack (Ashby, Claude, Claap, and more), and we keep investing to stay among the most performant and modern TA setups out there. You will not be fighting for basic tooling — you will be using the best of what exists, and contributing to deciding what comes next, including how we deploy AI across the funnel.
•
You will live a genuinely unique scale moment. Going from 100 to 250 (and more) with a real international component (France, Spain, US, and more to come) is the kind of stretch most recruiters only get to do once. You get to do it here, with a company that has already proven it can build a recognized product with a tiny team — and with full ownership of the roles you run.
