  • Demonstrable experience attracting and hiring specialist AI and emerging technology talent alongside broader Engineering and Product recruitment, with understanding of evolving technical skills and ability to identify, engage, and assess sought-after talent.
  • Experience recruiting across technical disciplines and seniority levels, from specialist individual contributors to senior technical and functional leadership.

  • Credibility and confidence partnering with senior Engineering, R&D, and Product leaders, influencing hiring strategies, and constructively challenging requirements.
  • Strong understanding of technical talent markets and emerging technologies, with ability to translate market intelligence into actionable hiring recommendations.
  • A data-led mindset using recruitment insights and pipeline analytics to influence decisions and improve outcomes.
  • Ability to work autonomously, manage competing priorities, and contribute to a collaborative global team.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end recruitment across Engineering, specialist technical, and Product roles, from initial brief through offer.
  • Develop creative sourcing strategies to identify and engage talent, including senior, specialist, and hard-to-reach candidates.

  • Build trusted partnerships with Engineering, R&D, and Product leaders, translating business priorities and growth plans into talent strategies.

  • Coach hiring managers on candidate assessment, interview design, and decision-making, helping teams recognise technical capability and make consistent, evidence-based hiring decisions.
  • Anticipate future skills and talent needs and build proactive strategies rather than simply responding to vacancies.
  • Use market mapping, talent insights, recruitment metrics, and pipeline conversion data to understand talent availability, market competitiveness, and hiring effectiveness.
  • Turn insights into practical recommendations that influence hiring decisions and improve recruitment outcomes.
  • Explore and adopt AI-enabled tools and innovative approaches to improve sourcing, candidate engagement, and recruitment effectiveness.
  • Own vacancies, timelines, and recruitment outcomes to deliver hiring priorities effectively.
