Talent Acquisition Lead

We’re looking for a senior, hands-on Fractional Hiring Manager / Talent Acquisition Lead to embed within our team and take ownership of technical hiring during a key growth phase for Permutable.

This is not a recruiter role and not an agency brief so please do not get in touch with us if you are either of these. We’re looking for someone who has operated at Head of Talent / senior TA level and can act as a true in-house partner to leadership.

​

About us

We’re a UK-based company operating at the intersection of AI, asset and macro data intelligence, and trading, building products that help institutional investors interpret global events and market signals in real time.

The role

You will be embedded within the business, working directly with leadership to:

• Own and deliver the technical hiring strategy
• Act as a true hiring partner to founders, engineering, and product leadership
• Lead hiring across engineering, data, and product roles (e.g. backend, ML/AI, data engineering, platform, product)
• Build and optimise our technical hiring processes
• Execute hands-on sourcing, screening and interviewing of high-calibre technical talent
• Bring market insight, calibration, and rigour to technical hiring decisions

​

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience as a Head of Talent / Senior Talent Acquisition Lead with a strong technical hiring focus
• Track record hiring within fintech, trading, AI, or high-growth tech environments
• Deep experience hiring engineering, ML/AI, and data roles
• Comfortable partnering with technical stakeholders (CTO, engineers, product leaders)
• Able to balance strategy and hands-on delivery
• Experience building technical hiring processes from scratch or scaling them

​

Engagement model

• Fractional / embedded
• Initial 3–6 month engagement, with potential to extend
• London-based preferred, with some in-person collaboration

​

For individuals and providers

We welcome interest from:

• Independent fractional talent leaders with deep technical hiring experience
• Boutique / specialist providers offering embedded fractional technical TA support

Please include:

• A brief overview of your technical hiring experience (engineering, AI, data)
• Examples of technical teams you’ve built or scaled
• Your availability and preferred engagement model
