About the role
Your role
We are building the most talent-dense company in London. That is the mandate you are being hired for.
Hiring is one of the company’s top priorities, and it shows: Founders are in the process, they move fast on strong candidates, and they hold the bar. Until now, hiring has been run directly by founders and Operations. There is a working process, a live ATS, real pipelines and roles being filled. What there isn’t yet is someone whose whole job is to make it exceptional.
That is you. As Founding Talent Partner you own hiring end to end, across every function: engineering, design, partnerships, implementation, support, operations and finance. You understand what exceptional looks like at Saturn, go and find it, and hold the bar when a role gets hard to fill.
You will also build the function. The interview architecture, the ATS, the sourcing engine and the hiring data are yours to sharpen, and every search you run leaves behind infrastructure.
It is an intense seat. Concurrent searches, a high bar and hiring decisions the whole company feels. You are never carrying it alone. Do this well and the function grows around you, with a team to lead.
The Team
Small and high-calibre by design. Everyone here is someone the rest of the company learns from, and at our stage that quality is fragile: every hire is visible, every hire compounds, and one wrong hire is felt across the company.
You will be the first dedicated talent hire. That comes with real autonomy, real support, and real accountability. What you learn in the market becomes how Saturn hires.
You will report to our Head of Operations, who has been running hiring to date and will hand it over properly rather than throw you, also collaborating weekly with the Founders on headcount planning, prioritisation and closing, and directly with every function leader on their roles.
