About you
You have significant end-to-end recruiting experience across business functions such as GTM, Operations and/or Professional Services, including senior or high-impact searches

You have a strong track record of sourcing and closing high-calibre, hard-to-reach candidates through direct outreach and other creative channels

You have worked across multiple functions, markets or locations and can adapt your approach to different talent pools and business contexts

You have experience in fintech, fund administration or professional services, or evidence that you can build credibility quickly in a complex domain

You bring a constructive, high-ownership attitude and stay close enough to execution to turn ambiguity into action

You can hold substantial cognitive load across a changing portfolio, senior stakeholders and high-stakes candidates without losing clarity, detail or follow-through

You have strong discernment: you see nuance, separate signal from noise and know when persistence should become a different strategy

You combine emotional intelligence with gravitas, adapting to different stakeholders while remaining direct about evidence and trade-offs

You have strong business acumen and connect company priorities, team design and commercial or operational outcomes to practical hiring plans

You are self-starting and act with agency: you create structure, initiate solutions and escalate with an informed recommendation

You have practical experience using AI tools in your daily recruiting workflow; experience building automations or new workflows is a strong advantage

You build strong processes and data discipline without becoming rigid, and continually look for ways to improve candidate experience and team effectiveness

You communicate fluently in English

What success looks like
Own it: Take accountability for the business hiring portfolio, not only individual requisitions. Create clarity where ownership is ambiguous, close loops with senior stakeholders and surface risks early with a recommendation.

Aim for impact: Focus talent capacity on the hires and improvements that move company outcomes. Make explicit trade-offs, connect hiring decisions to revenue and delivery, and measure quality as well as speed.

Empower others: Raise the effectiveness of hiring managers, peers and interviewers through coaching, context and reusable practice. Build trusted partnerships while preserving shared accountability.

Always be curious: Learn the business, customer and talent market deeply. Ask why before accepting demand, test assumptions and turn market and quality-of-hire evidence into better workforce decisions.

Enjoy the ride: Bring calm, warmth and constructive energy to high-pressure searches and difficult conversations. Recognise progress and support the team while maintaining a high bar.
