About You

• You’ve got 5+ years of experience in high-growth startups, or similarly fast-paced, high-accountability environments. You know what great looks like in terms of talent and hold a high bar.
• You’ve got a track record of exceptional performance, whether in work, academics, sports, or anywhere else you’ve applied yourself. People trust you to get stuff done & you've built a great network in the startup & scale-up ecosystem.
• You are curious and naturally ask why with a view to solving problems, rather than repeating actions.
• You’re a ruthless prioritiser, highly organised, and focused on outcomes over inputs. You’re efficient, leveraging AI throughout all your processes, and autonomous without compromising on quality, and you always nail the basics on process, comms, and ATS hygiene.
• You’re entrepreneurial and want to be part of building a business. You’re not looking for a narrow recruiter role; you want ownership, influence, and to play a key role in shaping a team through our scaling journey.
• You’re outcomes-focused, with a strong bias to action.
• You’re a great communicator, i.e. clear, concise, and persuasive. You can write great outreach, pitch to a passive candidate, have exceptional behavioural and competency-based interviewing skills, and can hold your own in a strategic conversation with senior leaders.
• And you’re just a really good human, i.e. collaborative, kind, low-ego. You want to win, but not at the expense of others. You give feedback generously and seek it actively. You raise the bar for those around you.
