The Company

Cledara helps businesses take control of their software subscriptions by providing visibility of software spend, cutting excess costs, and streamlining administrative tasks. Our platform allows companies to focus on what matters most: growing their business.

With over 1,300 customers globally, we are recognized as a leader in the SaaS management space. We are proud to announce that in February 2026, G2 named Cledara one of the Best UK Software Companies. This prestigious recognition follows our success in the G2 Winter 2025 Report, where we earned 16 badges for SaaS Spend and SaaS Operations Management. Our high ratings for usability and customer relationships underscore our commitment to a powerful yet user-friendly product.

We are a product-led company with a clear vision and backed by tier-1 investors, including Notion Capital, Nauta Capital, Anthemis and CommerzVentures. We have a market-leading product with a proven track record and a collaborative team with a high-performance culture. We believe in working hard so we can learn quickly and get better.

The Role

We’re looking for a Talent Lead to take full ownership of how we attract, hire, and retain exceptional talent. Joining a lean, fast moving team, you’ll have complete scope to shape our recruitment strategy while partnering on broader People operations.

You won’t just be filling roles - you’ll be shaping the talent infrastructure, driving strategic People initiatives, and acting as the direct talent partner to company leadership.

This is a full-time hybrid role, with at least 3 days a week in our London office.

What You’ll Do
  • Manage End-to-End Hiring: Take full ownership of the recruitment lifecycle across all departments, from initial briefing and proactive sourcing to interviewing, offer management, and onboarding.
  • Enable Hiring Managers: Work with department leads on structured interviewing and closing top-tier candidates effectively.
  • Design Onboarding Workflows: Build structured onboarding plans and welcome initiatives to ensure seamless candidate-to-employee transitions.
  • People Operations & HR Compliance: Handle day-to-day HR administration - including contract generation, offer letters, right-to-work checks, ATS/HRIS maintenance - and take ownership of writing and maintaining company HR policies.
  • Drive Engagement & Retention: Run employee engagement initiatives, analyze feedback, and partner with leadership to implement actionable cultural improvements.
  • Drive Broader People Operations: Partner on core People & Culture projects beyond recruiting, including team talent mapping and managing immigration/visa sponsorship cases.
  • Optimize Hiring Systems & AI: Expand on AI workflows to streamline candidate touchpoints, speed up hiring velocity, and elevate our employer brand.

RequirementsWho You Are
  • Proven TA Operator: You have a successful track record managing the full recruitment lifecycle in a fast-paced environment, comfortably balancing proactive sourcing with strategic planning.
  • Versatile People Partner: You are open to broader HR responsibilities beyond talent acquisition, being able to easily navigate areas like talent mapping, policy creation, visa compliance, and employee engagement strategies.
  • Curious: You stay ahead of the curve by exploring modern TA practices, sourcing tools, and AI workflows to continuously optimize workflows.
  • Hands On Builder: You thrive when rolling up your sleeves - whether writing contracts and policies, designing onboarding steps, or running end-to-end talent searches from scratch.

Benefits

Financial and Professional Growth

  • Direct Ownership: Work directly with leadership to shape culture, hiring practices, and People operations.
  • Growth Opportunity: Your growth is based on results and the systems you build, not tenure.
  • Training and Development: Cledara provides £500 annually for approved training and development.

Life and Wellness

  • Annual Leave: 25 days of annual leave plus public holidays.
  • Private Medical: Access to private medical insurance through BUPA.
  • Health and Fitness: Access to a corporate ClassPass account, an onsite gym, and free entry to all gyms within the Fora network.

Culture and Environment

  • Supportive Environment: We provide the autonomy, and resources you need to build great things.
  • Great Tech: Work with top tier hardware and software, including a company provided Apple MacBook.
  • Vibrant Office: Our modern workspace is a stone's throw from Spitalfields Market, featuring an onsite gym, rooftop terrace, and a fully stocked kitchen with complimentary fruit, snacks, tea, and coffee.
