About Anima
Our mission is human wellbeing, and we're focusing on the breakthrough technology of personalised medicine. Since the beginning, our proprietary insight has always been that the company to create a true active learning data engine with a loss function against human wellbeing would be the one to crack it, becoming one of the most impactful companies in the world as a result. We're now in 1,100+ clinics, across 4 product lines, serve >20% of the UK population, and have solved >5.7 million patient cases in the past 12 months alone, saving an estimated 8,600 lives. We are cash flow positive, growing fast, and have a tight crew of ~35 people.

The Role: Talent Lead
Talent density is the singular driver of achieving this mission. As our Talent Lead, you will own this. You will build our talent function into a compounding machine that consistently brings the very best people to Anima. The Talent Lead will own the strategy and execution of hiring for every role in the business. You will work closely with hiring managers to define job requirements, creatively source candidates across every possible channel, and define slick operations that ensure our hiring managers own their processes with a 100% F1 score.

Who You Are
  • You have sourced and hired technical roles into a company with a high technical bar.
  • You have excellent written communication, and can write cold outbound that senior technical candidates actually reply to.
  • You have stood up and run a hiring function as a system, and know how to configure an ATS (for us, Ashby) with consistent stages, scorecards and interview plans.
  • You have experience closing senior candidates against competing offers.
  • You have selected and managed third-party search partners.
  • You are comfortable with numbers and can create dashboards and reporting that will build the compounding hiring engine.

What a Great First 12 Months Looks Like
  • Every open role has a live pipeline, with no roles starved of top-of-funnel (ToFu).
  • The best candidates reach our pipeline through every channel available to us including direct outbound, referrals, 3rd-party partners, events, and community engagement.
  • Our pipeline runs as a well-oiled machine with Ashby tuned for consistent stages and reporting.
  • Closing is consistently high with an offer acceptance rate ≥95%.
  • You have built a compounding hiring engine that gets better with every hire or rejection through advanced analytics and learning loops.
