At Serac Group, we’re your trusted partner in planning, construction, and AI-driven innovation. Our cutting-edge technology empowers professionals to streamline processes and make smarter decisions. Our suite of solutions includes:

• Serac Tech – A SaaS platform automating outreach to nationwide construction projects, enabling clients to uncover high-value opportunities.
• Planda – AI models that analyse billions of data points to predict and rationalise planning application outcomes.
• Ibex – The UK’s leading API for planning application data, trusted across industries like construction, PropTech, legal, and insurance.

We’re growing fast, and we need a talented recruiter to take over our hiring function, drive recruitment efficiency, strengthen employer branding, and lay the foundation for our long-term people strategy.

About this Role

This is more than just a recruitment role! You’ll be stepping into an established hiring function, taking over from our current Head of Talent. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of internal recruitment, working directly with leadership to refine hiring processes, improve employer branding, and drive employee engagement.

As we scale from 50 to 100+ employees in the next 18 months, this role will evolve into a Head of People position, where you’ll have the opportunity to build and lead a dedicated recruitment and HR team. If you have 1+ year of sales recruitment experience and are looking to transition in-house, this is the perfect chance to develop your career into a strategic leadership role.

Key Responsibilities

• Talent Acquisition & Hiring Strategy - Own and refine recruitment for sales, management, customer support, and product roles.
• Stakeholder Collaboration - Work closely with leadership and hiring managers to align hiring with business needs.
• Agency Management - Oversee our sales recruitment agency, ensuring we focus on quality-over-quantity hiring.
• Employer Branding & Talent Attraction - You will position Serac as a top SaaS employer by optimising our presence on LinkedIn, Glassdoor, and industry events.
• Onboarding & Employee Experience - Improve onboarding programs, employee engagement, and retention strategies.
• Culture & Retention - You will create a high-performance culture, working with leadership to reduce turnover and improve employee satisfaction.
• Career Progression & Development – Ensure employees see clear growth paths, partnering with managers to enhance career development programs.
• HR Systems & People Analytics - Track hiring efficiency, retention, and engagement metrics to improve decision-making.
• As we scale, you’ll transition into a Head of People role, where you’ll build and lead a dedicated recruitment and HR team, develop structured people operations (performance reviews, salary benchmarking, benefits), and play a key role in shaping company culture and long-term talent strategy.

Must-Haves

• Recruitment Experience – Minimum 1 year in sales recruitment, ideally in SaaS or GTM hiring (tech hiring experience is a plus!).
• Interested in transitioning in-house and developing into a strategic talent leader.
• Strategic Sourcing Expertise. Confident using headhunting techniques to engage top-tier, passive talent.
• Confident Communicator. Strong interpersonal skills for outreach, candidate engagement, and stakeholder collaboration.
• Stakeholder Management. Experience partnering with hiring managers to understand role requirements and drive hiring success.
• Process-Driven. You can refine and scale a recruitment function, improving efficiency and hiring success rates.
• Results-Oriented. Proven track record of sourcing, engaging, and closing high-caliber candidates.
• Growth-Minded & Adaptable. Excited about transitioning from sales recruitment to an in-house role, with a long-term vision of scaling a recruitment and people function in a high-growth SaaS environment.
• Resilient & Competitive. Thrives in a high-growth, high-performance culture with a drive to continuously improve.
