About The Role:

This is an opportunity to build and own Talent Acquisition for Nutrition Geeks as the business enters its next stage of growth.

You’ll manage the complete recruitment lifecycle, from high-volume operational hiring through to specialist commercial and senior appointments. Working closely with the HR Manager, co-founders and departmental leaders, you’ll create the pipelines, processes and hiring standards needed to bring exceptional people into the business quickly and consistently.

You’ll be hands-on with sourcing, screening, interviews and administration, while also advising senior stakeholders, shaping workforce plans, negotiating supplier terms and improving the overall hiring strategy.

What You’ll Own

End-to-End Recruitment

• Own recruitment across operational, commercial, specialist and senior roles from initial brief through to accepted offer and start date.

• Build targeted candidate pipelines through direct headhunting, job boards, referrals, local advertising and talent mapping.

• Write compelling job adverts, screen applications, lead interviews and coordinate fast, well-structured hiring processes.

• Keep candidates engaged through clear communication, timely feedback and a consistently strong experience.

• Negotiate salaries, start dates and offer details to secure the right people for the business.

High-Volume & Operational Hiring

• Partner with operational leaders to understand weekly workforce needs, seasonal peaks and longer-term headcount plans.

• Build reliable local talent pools across warehouse, logistics, production and other operational functions.

• Plan and run assessment days, recruitment events and on-site hiring days.

• Manage activity tightly to protect time-to-hire, attendance, quality and operational service levels.

Commercial & Senior Recruitment

• Translate business objectives into clear role requirements, scorecards and structured interview processes.

• Directly source hard-to-find talent across eCommerce, Marketing, Finance, Operations and other commercial functions.

• Use modern assessment approaches, including appropriate AI, psychometric and structured screening tools, to test capability and culture fit.

• Confidently advise hiring managers and co-founders on market conditions, salary positioning and candidate quality.

Agencies, Suppliers & Cost Control

• Manage approved temporary and permanent recruitment partners where external support is required.

• Negotiate agency fees, rates, rebate periods and terms to maintain quality while controlling cost per hire.

• Monitor supplier performance across speed, candidate quality, attendance and retention, addressing issues early.

• Build a direct-sourcing model that progressively reduces unnecessary agency dependency.

Onboarding & Recruitment Operations

• Own the journey from accepted offer through to induction, ensuring every new starter is set up for success.

• Prepare offer letters, contracts, starter forms and role-specific documentation accurately and on time.

• Coordinate references, Right to Work evidence and other pre-employment checks.

• Maintain accurate candidate, vacancy and employee records with appropriate confidentiality.

• Coordinate start dates, shifts and induction plans with hiring managers and the wider People team.

Strategy, Data & Continuous Improvement

• Build the systems, processes and ways of working required to run Talent Acquisition effectively as a standalone function.

• Track vacancy status, pipeline health, time-to-hire, source effectiveness, cost and early retention.

• Use recruitment data and stakeholder feedback to improve candidate quality, speed and experience.

• Support workforce planning by connecting hiring priorities, business objectives and associated costs.

• Benchmark salaries and market conditions, giving practical advice as hiring needs and talent markets evolve.

How Success Will Be Measured

• Speed - strong roles filled within agreed timelines.

• Quality - healthy shortlist-to-offer and offer-acceptance ratios.

• Retention - strong performance through probation and the first year.

• Cost - controlled cost per hire and effective agency-fee management.

• Experience - candidates and hiring managers receive clear, responsive and high-quality support.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven end-to-end recruitment experience, including high-volume hiring; warehouse, logistics or production exposure would be highly valuable.

• Confidence managing multiple vacancies at pace without compromising candidate quality or attention to detail.

• Comfort operating as a standalone Talent Acquisition function and moving between hands-on administration and senior-level strategy.

• Strong sourcing, screening and interviewing judgement, with an evidence-led approach to fair hiring.

• Experience running assessment centres, recruitment events or volume-hiring campaigns.

• Confidence working with an ATS, recruitment trackers, job boards and LinkedIn.

• Strong stakeholder-management skills, including experience partnering with senior leaders and challenging constructively when required.

• Commercial awareness across cost per hire, agency models, salary benchmarking and offer negotiation.

• Working knowledge of Right to Work, pre-employment checks, equal opportunities and recruitment compliance.

• A proactive, accountable style - you keep things moving, communicate clearly and follow through without being chased.

The Person

• You’ll suit Nutrition Geeks if you enjoy pace, ownership and variety. You can build trust with an operational manager in the morning, headhunt a senior commercial candidate in the afternoon and still make sure every offer letter, reference and tracker update is completed properly.

• You’ll care about getting the right person rather than simply filling a vacancy. You’ll use data and feedback to improve your approach, remain calm when priorities change and take pride in building a hiring experience that reflects the quality and ambition of the business.

Benefits:

• Rewarding base salary + performance-based highly incentivised bonus (uncapped)

• Work with a tight-knit high performing team

• Private Healthcare

• Company Pension

• Free Nutrition Geeks supplements

• Rapid career growth opportunities as we scale globally
