You’re highly communicative, proactive and solutions focused, whilst able to build and maintain quality partnerships with our business leaders.

About the Team

We call ourselves People Strategy rather than traditional Human Resources, because we execute the business strategy of the company through the execution of a people plan that motivates, develops, and inspires our employees.

About the Role

We have been in hyper growth mode for the last few years and have built out a world class talent team. As a result of our continued growth, we are looking for a Talent Acquisition Partner on a 12 month Fixed Term Contract who will join our team in either Reading or Melbourne to support our EMEA business across both our ‘Go To Customer’ and Corporate Services functions, with a blend of both technical and non-technical roles.
