Senior Talent Acquisition Partner - Tech & Product

The Role

Our mission is clear: we partner with leaders to attract and select outstanding, diverse talent that will thrive at Dojo.

As a Talent Acquisition Partner, you’ll drive hiring across our Technology and Product organisations, partnering directly with Engineering, Product Management, Design and Data leaders. You will dive into technical roadmaps and product strategies to understand team needs, deliver exceptional candidate experiences, and build high-performing teams that shape our platform.

Beyond filling roles, you’ll elevate how we hire day-to-day, coaching technical interviewers, using hiring analytics to clear pipeline bottlenecks and bringing fresh AI-native tools & ideas into the workflow to automate routine tasks so we can move faster and smarter.

What You Will Do…
  • Develop trusted relationships with Engineering and Product leaders, using tech talent market insights, competitor intelligence and pipeline data to guide hiring strategy and make high-impact hires.
  • Build diverse, high-caliber pipelines for specialized and in-demand technical roles (spanning Software Engineering, Product Management, Data,  Design & more), managing candidates from sourcing through to closing complex, competitive offers.
  • Facilitate structured evaluation: lead debrief/washup sessions, and give constructive feedback to hiring squads to keep technical assessments objective, consistent, and candidate-friendly.
  • Elevate Dojo’s employer branding by running developer meetups, and community-driven sourcing initiatives.
  • Contribute to and lead TA projects aimed at optimising our end to end hiring process.
  • Demonstrate curiosity and have a systems thinking approach
  • Be adaptable to changing priorities
  • Maintain high data integrity across our recruitment systems while proactively adopting AI tools to accelerate sourcing, research, and daily workflow automation.
What You Will Bring…
  • Proven track record successfully hiring across multiple technical domains within a fast-paced technology or fintech environment.
  • Strong technical literacy, comfortable speaking the basic language of engineering and product teams, assessing domain fit and translating technical requirements into compelling candidate pitches.
  • Demonstrated ability to partner with and influence senior technical leaders using conversion metrics, talent landscape data, and compensation benchmarks.
  • High adaptability and resilience, capable of balancing shifting roadmap priorities and balancing multiple specialized searches concurrently.
  • Practical, hands-on experience leveraging modern AI sourcing tools and workflow automations to streamline candidate identification, market mapping, and outreach.
  • Deep operational familiarity with modern ATS platforms (e.g., Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever) combined with an appetite to experiment with emerging recruiting technologies.
  • Curious and confident bringing fresh AI-native tools & ideas into the workflow

Dojo home and away

 

We believe our best work happens when we collaborate in-person. These “together days” foster communication, drive innovation and spark our brightest ideas.

 

That's why we have an office-first culture. This means working from the office 4+ days per week.

 

With offices across Europe, we know a thing or two about staying dynamic. Need deep focus? Head to a quiet zone. Big ideas? Collaboration spaces have you covered. Just here for a catch-up? Our social hubs make it easy. Do work that counts, in spaces made for you.

 

Question: what’s curious, relentless, and customer obsessed?

 

If you’re keen to know the answer, you’re a third of the way to meeting our Dojo values.

 

If the following speak to you, let’s talk:

 

You’re curious. You have a real desire to learn and create.

 

You’re relentless. You keep going even when it’s easier not to. 

 

You’re customer-obsessed. You know how important customers are to what you do. 

 

Diversity, equity, and inclusion at Dojo

 

From local bakeries to well-known eateries, Dojo payments serve over 150,000 places across the UK.

 

And something that’s fundamental to creating relevant, innovative products at Dojo is to build teams to reflect the diversity of the businesses we serve.

 

Our drive to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion is closely linked to helping employees thrive and innovating for better customer experiences.

 

If you care about your work, you’re curious, and you think customer-first, you have a place at Dojo.

 

To make sure you’re the best you can be throughout the recruitment process, let us know if you need any extra adjustments to help you thrive.
