What you'll do
- Own full-cycle recruitment across UK&I, partnering closely with hiring managers to define role scope, success profiles, and hiring strategies aligned to business priorities.
- Help shape how Talent operates at Legora, contributing beyond hiring to process design, programs, tooling, and broader People initiatives.
- Build and nurture proactive talent pipelines for critical and future hiring needs, ensuring we stay ahead of demand rather than reacting to it.
- Run structured, data-informed hiring processes that balance quality, pace, and consistency while maintaining a high bar for talent.
- Deliver an exceptional candidate experience from first conversation through to offer, acting as a trusted and credible ambassador for Legora throughout.
What we're looking for
- 5+ years in talent acquisition in a high-growth environment, startup, scaleup, or VC-backed company, with meaningful depth hiring engineering talent.
- A proven track record hiring high-performing engineering talent across the seniority levels that matter most at this stage of growth.
- The ability to hold a credible conversation with an engineering leader about what strong looks like; understand the difference between a good CV and a good hire in technical roles, and don't lower the bar when searches get hard.
- Experience partnering with senior stakeholders on hiring strategy and team build-out, not just executing briefs, but shaping them.
- The ability to run multiple complex searches without losing quality or pace.
- Comfortable in ambiguity with a bias toward action; build a structure where none exists and move without waiting for perfect conditions.
- Collaborative but direct; influence and challenge senior stakeholders when needed, and drive decisions rather than defer them.
