Senior IT Talent Partner

At Speed & Function, recruiting is more than filling roles — it’s about strengthening the entire system and helping people grow. We are looking for a recruiter who thrives on hands-on work today and aspires to become a Lead Recruiter in the next couple of years. The ideal candidate has 5+ years of relevant experience and an advanced level of English (C1).

What You’ll Do
 

• Drive full-cycle recruiting for technical and non-technical roles: sourcing candidates creatively, conducting interviews, and ensuring an excellent candidate experience.
• Partner with hiring managers and native English—speaking clients to shape ideal candidate profiles, while learning to challenge assumptions and raise the bar for every hire.
• Continuously experiment with sourcing tools, channels, and processes — improving and aligning them with company strategy.
• Track and report on recruiting metrics, recommending process improvements that drive results.
• Contribute to employer branding, candidate journey improvements, and engagement initiatives.
• Actively grow your own practice by joining recruiting communities, building mentor relationships, and staying curious about new methods.
• Take on small strategic initiatives (such as employer branding, metrics, or candidate journey improvements) to prepare yourself for future leadership.
   

What Growth Looks Like
 

• Year 1: Master hands-on recruiting at S&F. Fill roles effectively, refine processes and tools, and establish yourself as a trusted partner to hiring managers and leadership.
• Year 2+: Step into a Lead Recruiter role and join the S&F leadership team: mentoring newer recruiters, owning metrics, and helping design the future of our People function.
• Along the way, you’ll receive ongoing feedback, participate in developmental programs, and be supported in pursuing external learning (e.g. recruiter guilds, conferences, or mentorship networks).
   

What We Value
 

• Curiosity about people and systems — seeing each hire as part of the bigger picture.
• Hunger to grow — you want to become more than you are today.
• Comfort with feedback — using it as fuel to improve.
• Willingness to balance hands-on execution now with long-term ambition.
• Engagement with the broader recruiting craft — following trends, learning from peers, and contributing back to communities.
   

Why You Might Love This Role
This is a role for someone who enjoys the craft of recruiting and sees it as a stepping stone to leadership. You’ll have autonomy, support, and a clear path to grow into Lead Recruiter. If you’re looking for stability without growth, this may not be the right fit — but if you want to build yourself as you build a company, we’d love to talk.
