We operate exclusively on behalf of venture capital and private equity firms, engaging with C-suite executives of ambitious, dynamic companies.

You will be a key member of our team, responsible for supporting and eventually leading referencing projects. This role is vital for delivering our work and contributing to business growth.

The role involves:

• Conducting detailed reference calls and taking accurate notes
• Writing reports by analysing and summarising reference calls

About the Candidate:

The ideal candidate will have a background in recruitment, seeking to utilise existing skills in a different environment, without the pressures of business development. Our work is niche and specialist; therefore, we do not expect candidates to have exact experience. We value transferable skills and experience. Full training will be provided through in-house and external courses, with opportunities to study for professional qualifications. The candidate should be willing to learn, self-motivated, and a team player. Suitable backgrounds include:

• Recruitment & Executive Search
• HR, especially within fast-growing venture capital or private equity-backed businesses
• Operational experience with significant people management and team building

Essential Skills:

• Analytical problem-solving skills
• Ability to manage tight deadlines and work under pressure
• Confidence operating at a senior level
• Proactive and collaborative attitude
• High integrity

This is not an entry-level or graduate role. Previous relevant work experience is essential due to the seniority of the position. The role is UK-based, primarily remote, with team meetings once a month. Part-time hours may be considered for the right candidate. Salary will depend on experience.
