Mathias

International Recruiter

Originally from Denmark and currently living in Qatar, he recently joined Job Squad with one clear mission in mind: helping young people take their first big step abroad. Even though he is new to the team, he has worked in similar roles before and brings a lot of personal experience with him. He knows exactly how life-changing it can be to move abroad at a young age, because he did it himself when he was just nineteen.

Since that first move, he has lived in Portugal, Spain, Turkey, Qatar, and Dubai. His international journey started in Portugal, where the company helped him settle in and made the transition smooth and safe. That experience shaped his passion for guiding others, because he understands how much easier everything feels when someone is there to support you.

For him, the best part of moving to a new place is discovering new cultures, seeing the world from different angles, and making friends across continents. Having connections all over the world is something he values deeply, and it is one of the reasons he loves working with people who are just starting their own adventure abroad.

When he is not helping candidates, he enjoys a sporty lifestyle. You’ll often find him at the gym, on the golf course, or spending time with friends. He is also naturally spontaneous. One of his favourite stories is how he ended up working as a yacht captain in Spain after an unexpected opportunity came his way. Before joining Job Squad, he was also involved in music, which still inspires him creatively. These days, he is travelling through Asia and collaborating with Niki and Ceren on the Job Squad podcast.

His best advice for anyone moving abroad is simple but powerful: learn a few basic phrases in the local language. Even a simple hello or thank you can open doors, show respect, and help you feel at home faster. Moving abroad is easier when you stay open, curious, and willing to embrace everything that comes your way.
