Apply for the Head of Talent Acquisition
Location: London
Job Description:

We’re now a team of 40 across London, Basel and Boston, and on track to hit £10m NFI in our third year of operating. The plan is to scale to 60 people by year end.

To do that, we need someone who can build and own a best-in-class TA function, not just delivery, but strategy, brand, and consistent pipeline.

We’re looking for someone who can attract both:

– Experienced recruiters

– High-potential, non-experienced hires

But one thing is non negotiable, everyone we hire needs some level of sales ability or commercial instinct.

This role is for a doer. Someone who can operate hands on, build from scratch, and create structure as we scale and work from our London HQ 5 days per week.

You’ll be responsible for:

– Designing and executing our hiring strategy

– Building a strong employer brand

– Creating repeatable, high-performance hiring processes

– Partnering closely with leadership as we scale globally
