The hires you can't afford to get wrong.
WorkVibes is a recruitment, employer branding and HR partner in Bulgaria. We fill the roles that decide your year. We set up whole teams for companies entering the market: hired, legal, paid and working. And we build the reasons good people join and stay.
Three situations, one partner.
Hiring into a team you have, building one from scratch, or holding on to the one you've built. The need underneath is the same: a partner who knows the talent market, the real cost, and what makes people join and stay.
I'm hiring in Bulgaria
For the mid, senior and leadership roles where fit and speed both matter. We treat each hire as a business decision, position it honestly, and bring real market knowledge to every shortlist.
Recruitment →I'm building a team in Bulgaria
From talent benchmarking and cost modelling to a team that's hired, legal, paid and working. One partner, one timeline. Proven with regulated fintech, ready for any function.
Market entry →I want to attract and keep the right people
For companies where hiring works but keeping is harder, or where good candidates say no before the first call. We work on why people stay and how you look to the ones you want, with the HR systems behind it.
Employer branding & HR →Every shortlist starts with the business.
A role exists because something has to get done. We start there: what the hire has to deliver, what the market really pays, who is actually reachable. Then we position the role honestly to the right people, with a process that respects candidates and protects your name in the market. When you're building something bigger, we coordinate cost, hiring and operational setup until the team is real and working. And once it's working, we help you keep it.
Three ways we help you hire and grow.

People hire people. So it matters who you'll actually work with.
I'm Ventsislava Nikolova. For twelve years I've helped companies in Bulgaria and beyond hire well, build teams and keep them. I work hands-on, say the honest thing, and treat every brief as if it were my own company, not a ticket to close.

The work, in their words.
A compliance team, in months
"WorkVibes ran the whole thing: hiring, setup, all of it. The team was working before we expected to finish recruiting."
The hire two agencies said didn't exist
"They found us a senior hire two previous agencies told us didn't exist in this market. The difference was that they actually understood the role."
Offer acceptance up within a quarter
"Our hiring used to put off the exact people we wanted. WorkVibes rebuilt how we talk to candidates, and our offer-acceptance rate climbed within a quarter."
We help build the field we work in.
