At ComplyAdvantage, we’re on a mission to fight financial crime through cutting-edge AI and data.
As our Talent Acquisition Lead (Commercial), you won’t just be hiring—you’ll be building the team that builds the team. Reporting to the Global Director, Talent Acquisition and working hybrid in London, you will lead our Global commercial talent strategy, manage a squad of 3 recruiters, and act as a key strategic partner to our Regional VPs and Directors.
What You’ll Do- Lead & Mentor: Manage and develop a team of Commercial TA Specialists and Partners. You’ll be responsible for their growth, performance, and workload balancing.
- Strategic Advisory: Act as a high-level consultant to Commercial leadership. You’ll provide market intelligence, compensation trends, and capacity planning to ensure our hiring roadmap aligns with business needs.
- Process Architecture: Own the "Commercial Hiring Playbook." You will constantly refine our assessment frameworks, rubrics, and interviewer training to ensure we remain fast, fair, and high-signal.
- High-Impact Search: While you lead the team, you’ll also roll up your sleeves for "cornerstone" hires—managing senior level searches across the org.
- Data-Driven Leadership: You’ll own the narrative of our Commercial hiring data. You won’t just report on hires; you’ll analyze funnel velocity, quality-of-hire metrics, and cost-per-hire to drive continuous improvement.
- Global Employer Brand: Partner with Marketing to position ComplyAdvantage as the top destination for Commercial talent through talks, advocacy, and targeted campaigns.
- DE&I Champion: Lead the charge on inclusive hiring. You’ll move beyond "top-of-funnel" diversity to ensure our entire selection process is equitable and removes systemic bias.
- Proven Leadership: 5+ years in Commercial recruiting, with at least 2+ years of experience managing people in a high-growth B2B SaaS or FinTech environment.
- Culture Champion: You understand how to get the best from your team and champion an open and transparent culture.
- Commercial Fluency: You have a deep understanding of the B2B SaaS market and how to engage exceptional talent
- The "Coach" Mindset: You find more professional satisfaction in seeing your team hit their targets and grow their careers than in closing your own reqs.
- Operational Excellence: You are an expert in Greenhouse (or similar ATS) and know how to leverage automation and data to remove friction from the recruiting process.
- Relationship Mastery: You have a track record of building high-trust partnerships with C-suite and VP-level stakeholders, often acting as a "truth-teller" regarding market conditions.
- Agility: You thrive in the "scale-up" environment—you can think five miles ahead while executing the mile you’re currently in.
