About · Since 2024
Munich

For the service technician. CNC machinist. industrial mechanic.

For machinery builders and technical service operators between 50 and 500 employees. Brands that want to show what they build.

Meet the team

There are businesses that deliver – and still can’t fill a role that’s been open for months. The service technician is missing, the machine stays down. The industrial mechanic quits after twelve months. A large share of interested people vanish between the ad click and a submitted application.

We fill these roles – and while doing it we build the system that keeps doing it without us: role profile, your own careers page, channel, response rhythm, pre-selection, handover. For machinery builders and technical service operators between 50 and 500 employees. After the handover it belongs to the company, not to an agency.

Most agencies rent you reach – when the budget stops, the applications stop. We build a system that you own and that stays.

We don’t stay because a contract holds you. We stay because it’s worth it. When our placement phase ends, your system stands – no platform you rent, no access we could switch off.

From Munich. Blacklyne is not the next applicant conveyor belt from the hundreds of social-recruiting agencies – applicants are not hires. 283 businesses have trusted the group since early 2024, and we run every first call as a feasibility check, not a sales pitch.

Values

Four things that count.

01 / 04

Straight talk, not buzzword bingo

Direct and honest, no marketing speak. If a role isn’t fillable, we say so – in the feasibility check, not after you sign.

02 / 04

Hires, not applicants

A full inbox is not a filled role. We measure what counts: people who start and stay. Applicant counts are someone else’s business.

03 / 04

If it’s not a fit, we part ways

We fix it – with no extra agency fees. Or we don’t take the role in the first place. One business per specialisation and area, no contract traps.

04 / 04

Your system, not our retainer

The best campaign is worthless if nothing remains afterward. We build what you own and that keeps hiring – careers page, funnel, candidate data. The rest we skip.

WHO WE BUILD FOR · AND WHO WE DON'T

We know who we work with.

And who we don’t. That’s fair on both sides.

01 / FIT

Who we build for.

  • Machinery builders and technical service operators with their own installed base, 50 to 500 employees, recurring technical demand.
  • Owners who can decide today – not in six months.
  • Businesses that want to own their recruiting instead of paying a retainer forever.
  • People who like straight talk – from us and from themselves.
02 / NO FIT

Not for.

  • Anyone who wants to “post a role” without interviewing anytime soon.
  • Anyone looking for the next social-recruiting agency for a full inbox.
  • Anyone who rejects qualified people for no reason and still expects a guarantee.
  • Anyone who wants to “align” for half a year before the first role is filled.

See yourself on the left? Request a feasibility check – then both sides know.

Waiting list

One company per specialisation and area. Every slot is currently taken.

Put your name down. As soon as a slot opens in your area we will come back to you – with an assessment, not a pitch.

What happens next

  1. You leave a postcode and a website. That is all we need to place your catchment area.
  2. We come back as soon as we can – and we decline if your area is taken or the role cannot be filled. Honestly, before you lose time.
  3. If it fits, we run your area together: how many suitable technicians work within range, and what the build would cost you – including when we advise against it.

A systems builder, not an agency

The last time you pay anyone for recruiting as a service.

Blacklyne is not a recruiter, not a retainer agency and not a staffing firm. We build the hiring system once inside your company and hand it over with accounts, templates and everything documented in writing. From handover on you hire on your own – no fee per head, no monthly retainer, and no us.

What ends at handover

  • Recruiter fee, 15–25 % of annual salary – per head, every time
  • Retainer: monthly, open-ended, paying for effort rather than outcome
  • Staffing mark-up, cost factor 1.5–2.0
  • Dependency: accounts, audiences and applicant data sitting with a provider

What stays – inside your company

  • A careers page on your own domain, source code and access included
  • Ad accounts, audiences and creatives running on your company
  • Applicant data, screening questions and scoring logic
  • Operating manual and training – you launch the next role alone

Your ad budget keeps running through your own accounts, paid straight to the platform. Nothing flows to us from day one – that is the difference, not the campaign.
