Descrizione del lavoro

Fresh Food, Happy Dogs. We believe dogs deserve the healthiest, most natural and tastiest meals - with none of the nasties. That’s why we make FRESHly prepared food, cooked just like you would at home and delivered direct to our customers in perfect portions. As a B-Corp certified company, you’re joining a sustainable business that genuinely cares about our people, our products and our impact on the planet. Our goal is simple: to help dogs live healthier, happier, and longer lives, while leaving humans smiling after every interaction. We’ve come a long way since our co-founders (Kev & Dave), hand delivered the very first Butternut Box. Today, we feed hundreds of thousands of hungry dogs across the UK and Europe - but we won’t stop until we’re feeding dogs everywhere. To get there, we need a team of brilliant people who share that ambition to come and work for us.

The job:

You will be the driving force behind finding our future sales talent and nurturing our internal culture, serving as a vital bridge between our recruitment growth and core HR operations.

A bit about the work you’ll deliver:

• End-to-End Recruitment: Own the full recruitment lifecycle for our Build pillar. From initial briefing and creative sourcing to technical screening, interviewing, and offer negotiation, you will ensure we bring the best talent into the sales team (high volume hiring)
• Pillar Partnership: Partner closely with hiring managers to ensure consistency in our recruitment strategy, pipeline health, and hiring velocity.
• HR Administration: Pick up and execute core HR operations tasks, logging contract variations, employee lifecycle paperwork, and ensuring smooth local compliance steps.
• Onboarding & Lifecycle: Run an exceptional onboarding process for new starters, making sure their first weeks are structured, supportive, and full of tail wags.
• Systems Management: Closely administer HiBob as our central HRIS to maintain candidate-to-employee data integrity, run reports, and optimize workflows.
• Engagement Activities: Help design and drive internal team engagement initiatives and culture events, keeping our teams connected and looking out for each other.

A bit about the team you’ll be joining: You will sit directly within our central People Team, but you will dotted line into the Build pillar to maintain consistency across our recruitment standards. You will work closely with People Lead, Hiring Managers, and our central Build team to drive operational excellence and a seamless employee journey.

What we’re looking for:

• Solid Recruitment Background: You have a proven track record (2 years) of managing full-cycle recruitment in high volume / sales in a fast-paced environment (in-house or agency), with an ability to map markets and source passive talent creatively.
• Curious About HR: You have a genuine interest in broadening your craft into HR operations, employee engagement, and data administration. You see admin not as a chore, but as a vital part of candidate and employee care.
• Systems-minded: You are comfortable working with HRIS or ATS platforms and love finding ways to streamline and automate manual processes to keep us fast and agile.
• Hands-on, zero ego, proud of your craft: You are willing to roll your sleeves up to source for a high hiring target, fix a broken onboarding workflow, or work through highly detailed admin tasks.
• Analytical & Proactive: You don't wait to be told what’s broken or where the pipeline is stalling; you spot patterns in data and feedback to turn insights into practical improvements.
• Strong Communicator: You deliver a warm, transparent, and highly engaging candidate experience that leaves people smiling, regardless of the interview outcome.

The interview process:

• Initial call with your dedicated Talent Acquisition Partner, carried out remotely.
• Skills interview, carried out remotely (60 min)
• Behaviours interview, carried out in person (60 min)

We usually expect our interview process to take 3-5 weeks, end to end.

What We Offer

• Success Sharing: Competitive salary and an ESOP (Stock Option) package—everyone owns a piece of our success.
• Flexibility: A hybrid work model (3 days in office, 2 days remote).
• Work-Life Balance: 25 days of vacation plus 5 "Paws-Days" for your furry friends or personal wellbeing.
• Impact: Be part of a fast-growing B Corp that values purpose as much as profit.
• Butternut Box employee discount
