Head of Talent (Operational/ Strategic, IC)
We are a successful and continually ambitious, fast-growing organisation at the forefront of transforming businesses on a global scale. As we continue to scale, we’re seeking a Head of Talent to lead the charge in building a world-class talent function — someone who combines strategic vision with hands-on recruitment expertise and has the experience to shape and deliver a high-performance talent agenda.
This is a unique opportunity for an exceptional individual contributor who’s been through the journey of scaling a business and knows how to build talent infrastructure that drives cultural and commercial transformation.
Key hires will be in the GTM/ Product and Tech teams - experience in this space is going to be crucial.

* Partner with senior leaders to forecast hiring needs and build workforce plans that support transformation
* Create frameworks for internal mobility, succession planning, and future leadership development
* Drive a culture of excellence, agility, and continuous improvement across all talent practices

You bring:
