A market leading, global hedge fund, is looking to hire a new headcount into its expanding HR function.
Directly supporting the hiring manager, as her ‘number two’ in early careers, the hire will work in a 'talent acquisition' focused role with a broad remit. The hire will screen a large volume of graduate and intern CVs, interview candidates at the first stage, and coordinate the recruitment process beyond this point. As the early career function is, to some extent, still in its infancy stage, value-add and project work is key to the role. Working alongside the hiring manager, the new hire will look to perfect a fully functioning graduate recruitment process and improve multiple existing processes. While most of the role is internal, the hire will have the opportunity to represent the firm externally at career fairs and hackathon events. The new hire will also be tasked with providing an ‘after-care’ service to graduate and intern hires, which includes providing post-meeting analysis, commentary, and suggesting recommendations to senior management.
Candidates must have an excellent academic record and 1-3 years of experience in an administrative or coordinator type role, ideally within an early careers or recruitment support function. However, we are flexible regarding both this and the specific industry a candidate currently works in. Strong communication, organizational, and people management skills are essential.
The role is budgeted to pay a £50-60k base salary. Our client will offer the successful hire a strong increase on their current base. A top performer will earn a large percentage of their base as an annual bonus. The hire will receive fully subsidized breakfast, lunch, and gym, along with a large pension and gold-level private healthcare.
