About us

Who we are

20+ years in Bulgaria and the Balkans

Horizons Bulgaria is a prominent recruitment agency established in Bulgaria with a track record spanning over two decades. Since our inception, we have successfully served the local Bulgarian market and expanded across the entire Balkan region — building a robust network and a deep understanding of the unique dynamics of recruitment in this part of the world.

Specialized recruitment solutions

We specialize in high-end and complex recruitment — from expert roles requiring specific skills, to mid-level positions that form the backbone of an organization, to top-level leadership roles that shape strategic direction. Our methodologies leverage both traditional and innovative strategies, always tailored to the specific needs of each client.

Commitment to clients

We view our clients as partners — working closely to understand their business needs, corporate culture, and strategic objectives. This enables us to tailor services that fulfill current needs while contributing to long-term goals. Successful recruitment is about more than placing candidates; it is about contributing to the ongoing success of our clients’ businesses.

Commitment to candidates

We focus on both technical qualifications and cultural fit, understanding that both elements are crucial for long-term job performance and satisfaction. We advocate for our candidates — representing them professionally and helping them navigate the market with honesty and care.
