• Act as a trusted partner to stakeholders—advising on market insights, role scoping, interview processes, and offer management
• Drive direct sourcing efforts, especially via LinkedIn and niche tech platforms, reducing reliance on external agencies
• Deliver a brilliant candidate experience, championing employer brand at every stage of the journey
• Maintain ATS records, support reporting, and contribute to improvements in recruitment processes
• Support the wider People Team on hiring campaigns and strategic projects

• 50% hybrid working (typically 2–3 days onsite in either London or Manchester)
• The chance to work with a supportive, ambitious and down-to-earth People team
• An initial fixed-term contract with a high likelihood of going permanent based on performance and headcount growth
