Talent Acquisition Lead

Location: Richmond

Contract type: Fixed term- 4 days or full time

People Leader: EU People and Experience Director

Function: People + Experience (P+E)

About us:

We are the people behind method + ecover. We’ve always done things differently – we’re fearless thinkers, mad scientists and adventurous designers who believe that making soap leads to brave ideas, bold inventions and beautiful bubbles. We started small but we have big plans to make the world a cleaner, greener, more colourful place. We invite everyone to join us as we pioneer a future where doing business is doing good for all.

Let’s get one thing straight – you’re not coming here to just sell soap, or cleaning products. You’re joining us to move the hearts, souls and minds of others all over the world that see the world differently. We think about cleaning as an act of creative expression, a gesture of rebellion, and, yes, an escape from the normal. We take cleaning seriously – but not ourselves.

Alongside our friends Mrs Meyers and Babyganics, we are collectively known as Lifestyle Brands and are part of the SC Johnson family.

What’s the role?

As Talent Acquisition Lead, you’ll oversee all attraction and selection activity across Europe and will look after the TA team (currently 2 Recruiters). You’ll be responsible for managing and evolving our TA approach as we integrate more closely with SC Johnson. You’ll ensure we have consistently high standards when it comes to candidate and hiring manager experience.

Experience we need:

• In-house expertise: Whilst you may have begun your Recruitment career in an agency, you will have spent at least 3 years in-house.
• Industry experience: Ideally you will have recruited for a Consumer Goods company previously. If not, you will have had previous experience recruiting for ’head office’ functions.
• People leadership: You will have some experience of managing others.
• International experience: It would be preferable for you to have some exposure to recruiting in other European countries (as well as the UK).

It’s a big, beautiful, colourful world out there and we should celebrate that. That’s why we’re working hard to be a fully diverse and inclusive place to work. Every day we strive to create an atmosphere where everyone feels valued, listened to, supported and where we can do our best work. Sure, there’s always more that can be done. But together with our team, partners, customers and community, we can make everyone welcome.
