Talent Acquisition specialist (Apprenticeship) - @Breega

At Breega, we back world-class founders for the future. We’re not simple investors - we’re entrepreneurs who’ve built, scaled, and learned what it really takes to grow.

Our forte is not just writing checks: it’s rolling up our sleeves - with our Scaling Squad, our portfolio companies get hands-on expertise in hiring, sales, marketing and strategy so they don’t just expand, they dominate. We partner with outliers rewriting the rules of Digital, Climate, and Deep Tech from pre-Seed to Series A+ across Europe and Africa.

Since 2015, we’ve grown to €700M AUM, with main offices in London and Paris and deep roots in the most thriving tech hubs across both continents, as well as a portfolio of 110+ bold startups—Exotec, Alice & Bob, Moneybox, 011H, etc—each pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Breega Values

• Be caring and constructive: We act with empathy and always provide full and constructive feedback.

• Play for the team: We make decisions as a team and stick to them as a team. We work cross-squads on a daily basis. We play hard.

• Act like a founder: As founders we work hard and are bold. We understand the highs and lows of the journey. We are by your side at each step.

• Win or Learn: We have a growth & performance mindset. We test, learn, iterate and improve. Always.

• Invest today for impact tomorrow: We invest our time, effort, and focus to make Breega and every business we back impactful.
