Talent & Culture Partner

Kitt designs and operates workspace for the world's most vibrant brands. From managing the design and build, to creating an elevated ongoing experience, we create spaces that are worth leaving home for.

The Role

Developing a world class attraction to onboarding experience for both candidates and hiring managers, you will be responsible for the candidate and employee journey from application through to the first thirty days. As a member of the people team, you’ll also be taking ownership of parts of the employee experience, including socials and in-house events. This is the perfect opportunity for an established Talent Partner or agency recruiter looking to explore a hybrid, in house role at an ambitious scale up.

You will be:

• Leading on recruitment across all teams, up to and including senior manager level, ensuring both a great hiring manager and candidate experience.
• Taking an active role in driving and supporting Company culture by coordinating team socials and regularly gathering feedback and finding new ways to bring teams together.
• Owning the Company onboarding for all new joiners to set them up for success and make them feel welcome from day 1.
• Ensuring both the individual and manager are regularly updated, processes are streamlined and all administration is completed for each new hire.
• Partnering with the Marketing team to create content for specific roles and highlight Kitt culture. Owning the careers site and job description tone of voice.
• Supporting the annual review of both compensation and benefits.
• Proactively seeking and monitoring market changes from candidates and your wider network to ensure Kitt stays competitive.
• Providing support to the wider People Team when needed.

Why Kitt?

The world of work has shifted forever. As people everywhere prioritise purpose over their paychecks, company culture has been thrown into the spotlight. But the problem is, too many companies are showing up to work in bland, cookie-cutter offices. We’re leading this change.

Real company culture can only be built in-person, in the real world – and for it to be authentic it needs its very own, personalised space. That’s why we create offices as unique as the brands and the people who work there. We’re long-term culture partners to our clients long after they've signed the lease and chosen the paint colours.

We’re disrupting an industry that has long needed a shake up, and with our sights set on helping every brand find their dream home, the future of office space and culture is in very good hands.
