Senior GTM Talent Partner

About Encord

At Encord, we are building the AI infrastructure of the future. The biggest challenge AI companies face today is not glamorous : it is all about data quality. The success of any AI application today relies on the quality of a model’s training data – and for 95% of teams, this essential step is both the most costly and the most time‑consuming in getting their product to market.

The Role

You will be Encord’s first recruiter on the ground in the US. You’ll partner with our founder and senior GTM leadership on building out our commercial function – bringing to Encord company‑defining talent to sustain the next stage of our hyper‑growth. You’ll define and execute a high‑quality hiring engine, drive everything from sourcing, outreach and candidate closing to brand building and process design, and help us recruit top‑tier talent while ensuring candidates know Encord is one of the best places to build a career.

About You

• 3+ years of experience in a hyper‑growth start‑up or a similarly fast‑paced, high‑accountability environment. You know what great looks like in terms of talent, hold a high bar, are pragmatic, fast‑moving and solutions‑oriented.
• You’re entrepreneurial and want to be part of building a business. You’re not looking for a narrow recruiter role; you want ownership, influence and a key role in shaping a team through our scaling journey.
• You have a track record of exceptional performance, whether in work, academics, sports or anywhere else you’ve applied yourself. People trust you to get stuff done and you’ve built a great network in the startup and scale‑up ecosystem.
• You’re a ruthless prioritiser, highly organised, focused on outcomes over inputs. You’re efficient, leverage AI throughout all your processes, and autonomous without compromising on quality, and you always nail the basics on process, comms and ATS hygiene.
• You’re outcomes‑focused, with a strong bias to action. You don’t get stuck in process or theory, you move things forward fast and get to the right answer by testing. You can hire for both high‑volume and specialised searches for niche roles.
• You’re a great communicator – clear, concise, persuasive. You can write great outreach, pitch to a passive candidate, have exceptional behavioural and competency‑based interviewing skills and can hold your own in a strategic conversation with senior leaders.
• You’re proactive and crave accountability. You don’t wait for instructions; you figure out what’s needed and make it happen. You can execute with little guidance and lots of ambiguity.
