The Talent Partner is the engine behind Actevates ability to grow with the right people. In this role, you'll partner directly with leaders across the business to define what great looks like, find people who can deliver it, and guide them into roles where they'll thrive long-term.
But this role goes beyond filling vacancies, rather you will be the custodian of Actevates culture helping to shape it, embed it, celebrate it, and share it with the world. As Actevates social ambassador, you'll give our brand a human voice, connect us with the wider industry, and make sure the outside world sees what makes this place genuinely special.
