Talent Partner, Strategic Account Management

About This Opportunity

We are representing a well-funded, rapidly scaling technology company in the AI and recruitment space. Our client works with some of the most ambitious startups and scaleups globally, helping them solve genuinely difficult hiring challenges—not because these companies haven't tried, but because they maintain world-class hiring standards.

As a Talent Partner focused on Strategic Account Management, you'll own client relationships from end to end. You'll work with founders, heads of engineering, and internal talent leaders to understand their most critical technical hiring needs, manage delivery through our platform, and become their most trusted advisor on talent strategy.

Responsibilities

• Own a portfolio of strategic client accounts, managing the full cycle from intake through offer acceptance and beyond
• Conduct thorough role briefings and kick-offs, challenging requirements when necessary and providing candid feedback on role design
• Drive process momentum on the client side—keeping feedback cycles tight, interviews moving, and pipeline velocity high
• Analyze talent pipelines using data and metrics, diagnosing bottlenecks and coaching clients through their own funnel performance
• Negotiate offers effectively, ensuring candidates accept without either party feeling pressured or misled
• Expand account relationships by demonstrating value, earning trust, and becoming embedded in clients' hiring plans
• Deliver market intelligence, honest candidate assessments, and actionable insights that make you the most valuable call on your clients' calendars
• Serve as a power user of the client's internal tools, providing feedback to product and engineering teams

What We're Looking For

• 2+ years in recruitment (agency or in-house), though exceptional candidates from adjacent backgrounds will be considered
• Strong commercial acumen and the ability to hold your ground with senior stakeholders—comfortable having difficult conversations early
• Credibility in technical hiring contexts; you understand software engineering roles well enough to be taken seriously by technical hiring managers
• Excellence with talent metrics and funnel analysis—you know what good looks like at each stage and can diagnose process issues through data
• Highly organized with exceptional communication skills; able to engage effectively with first-time founders, engineering leaders, and talent executives alike
• Track record of excellence and achievement in previous roles
• Intrinsic motivation to build something meaningful and solve problems that matter

How We Work With You

Candidates apply directly through Get A Job.ai. Our talent team will conduct an initial screening to understand your background and assess fit. If there's strong alignment, we'll submit your profile to our client for consideration. Please do not attempt to contact the client directly—all communication flows through our recruiting process to ensure the best experience for everyone involved.

The client's interview process typically includes: a hiring manager conversation, a short take-home exercise, an in-person interview day with task review and culture fit discussions, and a final conversation with the founding team.

What's On Offer

Our client provides above-market base salary plus uncapped commission, significant equity, comprehensive private healthcare and dental coverage, fertility benefits and enhanced parental support, gym membership and wellness benefits, and a "whatever you need" approach to tools and professional development. The team is doubling in size over the next 12 months across UK and US locations, offering genuine growth opportunity.

This role is based in London.
