About Cleo

At Cleo, we're not just building another fintech app. We're embarking on a mission to fundamentally change humanity's relationship with money. Imagine a world where everyone, regardless of background or income, has access to a hyper-intelligent financial advisor in their pocket. That's the future we're creating.

Cleo is a rare success story: a profitable, fast-growing unicorn with over $200 million in ARR and growing over 2x year-over-year. This isn't just a job; it's a chance to join a team of brilliant, driven individuals who are passionate about making a real difference. We have an exceptionally high bar for talent, seeking individuals who are not only at the top of their field but also embody our culture of collaboration and positive impact.

If you’re driven by complex challenges that push your expertise, the chance to shape something truly transformative, and the potential to share in Cleo’s success as we scale, while growing alongside a company that’s scaling fast, this might be your perfect fit.

About The Role

As a Technical Talent Partner, you'll join our collaborative Talent Team, acting as a trusted partner and subject matter expert in hiring across engineering disciplines ideally having worked with our tech-stack Ruby on Rails & React Native.

We are looking to hire this role in Portugal, Spain or the UK as we are scaling our technical functions here. Experience hiring Engineers in these regions is a must-have.

What We're Looking For

• Proactively sourcing and engaging exceptional candidates through direct sourcing, building robust referral networks, and fostering deep candidate pipelines. We hire 99% of our roles directly.
• Designing and implementing best-in-class interview processes, leveraging data to assess quality of hire, candidate experience, and hiring manager satisfaction.
• Championing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) by integrating inclusive hiring practices into every stage of the recruitment process, from outreach messaging to building diverse talent pipelines.
• Collaborating closely with hiring managers and stakeholders to deeply understand the needs of data teams and provide strategic guidance on hiring.
• Extensive sourcing experience, with a proven ability to directly engage top-tier talent in highly competitive markets.
• At least one year of experience working internally for fast‑growing, tech‑driven companies—a blend of agency and in‑house (or RPO/onsite) experience is ideal.
• A deep understanding of the data talent landscape, including the unique skills and attributes that make great data professionals.
• Comfort with context‑switching, as you’ll be recruiting for roles across different data disciplines with varying specialisations and skillsets.
• A proactive, solution‑oriented approach, demonstrating creativity and determination in solving hiring challenges for data talent.
• A data‑driven mindset, using metrics and insights to continuously improve recruitment strategies and decisions.
• TA toolkit: Experience with Metaview, Otta, LinkedIn Recruiter, Notion, and G‑Suite is a plus. If you’ve worked with other advanced sourcing tools, that’s a big plus too!

What do you get for all your hard work?

• A competitive compensation package (base + equity) with bi‑annual reviews, aligned to our quarterly OKR planning cycles. You can view our public progression framework and salary bandings here: https://cleo-ai.progressionapp.com/
• Work at one of the fastest-growing tech startups, backed by top VC firms, Balderton & EQT Ventures
• A clear progression plan. We want you to keep growing. That means trying new things, leading others, challenging the status quo and owning your impact. Always with our complete support.
• Flexibility. We can’t fight for the world’s financial health if we’re not healthy ourselves. We work with everyone to make sure they have the balance they need to do their best work.
• Work where you work best. We’re a globally distributed team. Our Spain, Portuguese & Poland team works fully remotely, but we host virtual socials and an annual company offsite somewhere in Europe with all expenses paid.

Other Benefits

• Company‑wide performance reviews every 6 months
• Generous pay increases for high‑performing team members
• Equity top‑ups for team members getting promoted
• 1 month paid sabbatical after 4 years at Cleo
• Regular socials and activities, online and in‑person
• We'll pay for your OpenAI subscription
• Online mental health support via Spill
• We’re in the process of setting up a legal entity in Poland that will come with a full suite of benefits, akin to what we offer in the UK - for now, we’ll be employing you through our EOR provider, Deel, and can discuss our current benefit offering directly.
