The ideal candidate will have agency experience recruiting within the Reward space or could be a generalist HR or Accounting and Finance recruiter looking to specialise.

We learn best when we're together and value collaboration and in-person interactions with candidates, clients, and each other. To reflect this, we promote (and enjoy!) working from the office, however, we also offer flexible arrangements and have the option to work from home one day a week.
