About the role

We are now hiring for a Talent Partner to join our growing People team. As our very first in-house Talent Partner at Xelix, you will operate as a generalist working across our commercial and tech teams and you’ll be responsible for the end-to-end hiring, attraction and retention strategies and the pipeline of our future talent in line with the People Strategy for Xelix.
We’re very intentional about who we hire, how we hire them, and how we make Xelix a place people love to work. We’ll grow the team by around 30% in the next 12 months, so you’ll play an integral role in scaling Xelix as well as other People projects and initiatives - whilst making sure we continue to be a high performing and diverse team.

What you'll be doing

Partner:

Working closely with hiring managers to deliver high-impact hires across our technical and commercial teams to enable Xelix to scale effectively. This includes attracting, sourcing and screening candidates, all the way to the offer process.

Working closely with line managers, team leads and third-party providers to identify developmental needs of team members and develop L&D strategies in line.

Attract:

Collaborate with hiring managers to build a diverse funnel of top talent using traditional search tools such as LinkedIn, as well as leveraging your expert sourcing knowledge to find great candidates with ‘outside of the box’ approaches.

Enhance:

Lead on the end-to-end Candidate Experience in a way that aligns with our mission, vision and company behaviours. Coach hiring managers on hiring best practices.

Measure:

Using data to ensure our quality of hire, candidate and hiring manager feedback are all incredibly positive.

Build:

It’s early days for the people and talent function, so you get to be involved on a range of projects, including employer branding, interview training and DE&I as well as building our longer term talent pipeline.

What you’ll bring

A strong passion in the attraction and development of great talent.
Proven experience working as a Talent Partner in a technology startup or scaleup environment, overseeing the full candidate journey from sourcing to offer management and the continuous development of talent pipelines.
Passionate about diversity, equity and inclusion, creating an engaging and inclusive hiring experience for both candidates and the hiring team.
Highly organised and able to juggle multiple ongoing work streams, projects and conversations at once. You’re very comfortable organising and prioritising your own time.
Enjoy the unique challenges of an early-stage company — a fast-moving environment of rapid growth, constant change, and lots of unknowns. You are happy to roll up your sleeves and stretch yourself to work on things outside of your day-to-day responsibilities to support the wider team.
