Talent Acquisition Specialist – Accounting, Finance & IT Recruitment
Job description
Kudos Kalibre is an investor-backed startup led by a founder with a strong finance background — and we're hiring our very first Talent Acquisition Specialist. This is a rare opportunity to build a talent function from the ground up and grow with the company you helped create.
Most recruitment roles hand you a requisition list and a target. This one hands you a blank page.
The role
As our founding talent hire, you will:
- Own end-to-end recruitment across our two core markets: Accounting & Finance and IT/Technology
- Build the talent function from scratch — sourcing strategies, candidate pipelines, processes and employer brand
- Source, engage and place high-calibre finance and technology professionals
- Work directly with the founder — no layers, no committees, decisions made fast
- Shape hiring strategy as we scale, with a clear path to leading the function you built
About you
- Proven recruitment experience in accounting/finance, IT, or ideally both (agency or in-house)
- Strong sourcing skills — you know where great candidates are and how to win them over
- Commercially sharp: you understand what first-class finance and tech talent looks like
- Ambitious and self-directed — you want ownership, not just a job
- Excited by the pace and possibility of an early-stage, investor-backed business
What we offer
- Competitive salary + a commission structure first in its league — your earnings scale with the company you're building
- 25 days annual leave, rising to 30 after two years of service
- Company pension
- Paid holiday abroad when you hit your targets — we celebrate wins properly
- Company phone and laptop
- A founding seat: your fingerprints on everything, from day one
