We operate exclusively on behalf of venture capital and private equity firms, engaging with C-suite executives of ambitious, dynamic companies. Our projects are fast-paced and demanding, but also rewarding and stimulating.

The role involves:

• Conducting detailed reference calls & taking accurate notes
• Writing reports – analysing & summarising reference calls

About the candidate

The ideal candidate will have a recruitment background and wish to utilise existing skills in a different environment, without the pressure of business development. Our work is niche and specialist; we do not require exact experience but value transferable skills. We offer comprehensive training both in-house and externally, with opportunities to pursue professional qualifications. A willingness to learn, self-motivation, and team contribution are essential. We consider candidates with experience in:

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

Essential skills:

• Analytical problem-solving
• 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. Due to the seniority, previous relevant experience is essential. The role is UK-based, primarily remote, with monthly team gatherings. Part-time hours may be considered for the right candidate. Salary will depend on experience.
