Lead Technical Recruiter

at  GetGround

We’re a UK headquartered Tech scaleup with a mission to make the world fairer and more productive. We are doing this by making assets more transparent, trustworthy and accessible - starting with real estate. Incomes have stagnated, so more access to high value assets like real estate = less wealth inequality. We have first mover advantage!
Our CEO and Founder Moubin previously worked at McKinsey and private equity firm APAX. Check out a podcast with Moubin speaking with our lead investors QED about how we’re disrupting asset ownership -> https://linktr.ee/getgroundtalent
Our four values sit at our core - no BS, pursuit of excellence, feedback obsession and healthy ego.

THE ROLE

This high-impact, highly visible position reports to our VP of People & Talent and involves close collaboration with senior leadership across our purpose driven organisation. You’ll have the opportunity to innovate in a fast-paced, intense environment where hiring excellence and creativity are critical.
Your main focus will be recruiting talent across all teams, and you’ll also take ownership of strategic projects to elevate our hiring processes (e.g refining assessments, enhancing platform efficiencies, advancing employer branding). This role has accountability for hiring predominantly across the UK and the Philippines and could include broader international hiring as we grow.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Brand Advocacy: Act as a brand ambassador, growing and engaging your network through events, webinars, and meetups.
• Builder: You won’t be afraid to re-build processes or approaches we have typically adopted by taking the hard path and re-designing our talent approach where you think it could level up how we approach talent at GetGround

THIS ROLE MIGHT NOT BE A FIT IF YOU…

• Prefer structured, long-term projects that develop over months rather than agile, in-flight progress.
• We believe that in-office collaboration is important for a high performing organisation, if you are looking for remote or only a few days in the office, we aren’t the right company for you.
