Job description

Growth & Company is a consultancy first and a recruiter second. We work with founders and investors to advise them on growth, then hire the teams to deliver it. Our Partner has more than 20 years' experience in marketing and uses that to help clients navigate complex issues - international expansion, team structures, launching new products, and more. We hire from our invite-only community of over 450 senior marketing people from the major startups in London, and have worked closely with the likes of Metaview, ZOE, Dex, DrSquatch, ElevenLabs, Granola, Fyxer and Attio.

We operate very differently to a normal recruiter as:

• We have done the job before so can offer deep advice to founders, VCs and candidates on marketing. We are a trusted partner
• We run a network of over 450 senior marketing people who we hire from (and hire for)
• We advise clients on wider issues such as how to structure teams, international expansion, remuneration and progression planning
• We have deep expertise in marketing and produce our own events and thought-leadership
• We are very selective on who we work with and turn down clients that we don’t feel are right for us

We're looking for a Talent Scout to work directly with our clients and candidates.

Tasks:

• Build relationships with senior marketing leaders and founders
• Manage key recruitments projects from end to end
• Deep dive with the client on the nuances the business is facing and what is required
• Set the strategy and plan for the project
• Lead the day to day running of the project
• Conduct interviews with senior leaders
• Support candidates and clients through the matching process

Key requirements

• Smart
• Proactive. Side hustles and other evidence of proactivity
• Results and performance driven. A passion for going the extra mile and hitting targets
• Strong communicator and high EQ. Can build relationships with a variety of different people
• Passion for marketing and startup culture
• Willing to get stuck in - can-do attitude
• Based in London
• No requirement on years of experience - early career welcome

The role is a gateway to progression in Growth & Company or externally. Internally you’ll take on more responsibility, own your own client relationships, build your own team and take on bigger areas of work - roles, locations or industries. Externally this is an ideal stepping stone to a career in sales, marketing or becoming a founder yourself. You’ll pick up the communication skills, marketing knowledge and connections to be highly successful in your next career move.

• Strong bonus scheme, with an uncapped bonus
• Early senior exposure and responsibility
• Learn core transfererable skills from an experienced founder and team
• Work closely with marketing leaders from amazing companies, including Metaview, ElevenLabs, Granola, Fyxer, Cleo, Dex and Attio
• Genuine autonomy and freedom to shape how you work
