Talent Acquisition Manager
- Tech- 12 month FTC

At Zego, we know that traditional motor insurance holds good drivers back. It's too complicated, too expensive, and it doesn't take into account how well you actually drive. That's why, since 2016, we've been on a mission to change all of that. Our mission at Zego is to offer the lowest priced insurance for good drivers. From van drivers and gig workers to everyday car drivers, our customers are our driving force — they're at the heart of everything we do.

We've sold tens of millions of policies so far, and raised over $200 million in funding. And we're only just getting started.

We are currently looking for a versatile Talent Acquisition Manager to support hiring across our Engineering functions. You will provide an exceptional experience by delivering world‑class service to both candidates and stakeholders. This is a 12 month maternity cover contract.

• Partner closely with Engineering function leaders to evaluate hiring requirements, lead the search and recommend a quality and inclusive shortlist of candidates.
• Manage third‑party agency relationships, ensuring they are kept updated and that the candidates they present are given an exceptional experience.
• Own the full cycle of the hiring process: job qualification, proactive sourcing (direct approach via Linked In and emails, networking, referrals), interviewing, selection, and closing of key talent.
• Deliver a world‑class, end‑to‑end experience for candidates and hiring managers.
• Monitor, maintain and proactively report key recruitment metrics.

• Well‑rounded, with experience partnering closely with Engineering teams; experience working with core business functions is an advantage.
• Fast‑paced, having recruited in start‑up or scale‑up companies within a dynamic environment.
• Positive, roll‑up‑your‑sleeves attitude to take the recruitment lead and suggest improvements to elevate our recruitment function.
• Numerate and analytical, metric‑focused.
• Proactively building talent pipelines outside organic applications.
