About the Role
As MR MARVIS grows across Europe, we're hiring at speed. Now we need a Talent Acquisition Lead to build the engine behind it. This role is for someone who still loves the thrill of hands-on recruiting, and who wants to build a smarter, smoother way of doing it.
Responsibilities
•Help shape how we attract and hire great people, from priorities to ways of working, and keep making the team better at it.
•Guide two Recruiters through regular one-to-ones, workload planning and hands-on coaching.
•Give them room to take ownership, and step in when they need you.
•Work side by side with hiring managers, Directors, senior leaders and HR Business Partners.
•Advise and challenge on role profiles, selection and hiring decisions, and coach your team to build equally strong relationships.
•Personally own selected key and leadership hires from first conversation to signed offer.
•Use hiring data and market insight to spot risks early, balance team capacity and sharpen hiring decisions.
•When something keeps going wrong, whether it's a process, a tool or a habit, you fix it rather than work around it.
•Build relationships across the business to anticipate future hiring needs, grow talent pipelines in advance and keep the team ready for whatever comes next.
Requirements
•A solid track record in end-to-end recruitment, gained in a fast-moving startup or scale-up, with some time in a larger company too. You've seen both worlds.
•You've coached, mentored or managed recruiters, and helped them grow into confident, independent professionals.
•You're comfortable advising and challenging hiring managers and senior leaders, not just taking a brief and running with it.
•You're happy to roll up your sleeves on complex or senior hires, from the first briefing and sourcing through to the offer. Recruiting still gives you energy.
•You use hiring data, market insight and business context to set priorities, spot problems and make better decisions.
•You notice recurring problems, take responsibility and put them right.
•You've improved interview processes, tools, reporting, candidate experience, applicant tracking systems or ways of working.
Nice to have
•You know the pace and variety of hiring across stores, head office and digital teams.
•You've looked beyond today's vacancies to future hiring needs and built talent pipelines in advance.
•You've helped shape how a company attracts and engages talent.
