You do not need active SC clearance as we will undertake checks upon you joining, but you must be eligible to pass SC clearance.\nYou must be UK based.\nAt a glance\nYou won't just fill your own vertical. You'll own it: the pipeline, the hiring leader relationship, and at least one initiative that outlasts any single requisition.\nThe moment\nCloudscaler is 130 people today, heading to 170 by the end of this year and roughly double again across 2027. Talent Acquisition is being rebuilt around a new Talent Acquisition Manager, with a team of three to five Partners forming from close to a standing start.\nYou'll be one of the first people in that team, which means the vertical you're given is genuinely yours to shape. Nobody has already worked out what good looks like for it.\nWhat makes this different\nA lot of Talent Acquisition Partner roles are really a narrow desk: work the reqs you're given, hand off at offer, move to the next one. Here is where this role goes further.\nInstead of a desk you're assigned, a technical vertical you own end to end\n\nInstead of requisitions handed to you, direct-sourcing pipelines you build yourself\n\nInstead of recruitment only, recruitment plus a real TA initiative, including early careers\n\nInstead of being handed off at offer, a clean handover into onboarding, and a relationship with the hiring leader that continues\n\nThe role\nYou'll sit in the Talent Acquisition team reporting to the Talent Acquisition Manager, alongside two to four other Partners. You'll run full-lifecycle recruitment for a technical vertical you own (sourcing, screening, interview process and offer), while business partnering directly with the hiring leaders in it.\nAlongside your own pipeline, you'll own a Talent Acquisition initiative that matters beyond any single hire, most likely our early careers programme: graduates, apprentices and the pipeline that feeds them.\nWhere the role starts and stops\nNew roles get vague, so here is the boundary as we see it today.\nYours\nFull-lifecycle recruitment for your vertical: sourcing, screening, interview coordination and offer\n\nDirect-sourcing pipelines for recurring or hard-to-fill roles in your vertical\n\nBusiness partnering with the hiring leaders in your vertical\n\nOwnership of at least one TA initiative, such as early careers\n\nShared\nThe handover from offer to start date, which the People Partner team picks up\n\nCapacity across the team during peak periods (you'll help outside your vertical when it's needed)\n\nAgency relationships and overall sourcing strategy, which the Talent Acquisition Manager owns\n\nNot yours\nEmployee relations casework and onboarding delivery, which sit with the People Partner team\n\nAshby architecture, agency management and team capacity planning, which sit with the Talent Acquisition Manager\n\nThe stack\nAshby: Our applicant tracking system. You'll keep your own pipeline data clean and current, as it feeds directly into team reporting.\n\nMetaview: Interview intelligence, which you'll use to sharpen your own interviewing and get feedback on it.\n\nRippling: The employee records. You'll work in it around offer and handover, alongside the People Partner team.\n\nClaude: A daily tool here. You'll use it for role briefs, market mapping, candidate communication and case notes.\n\nWhat you'll do\nOwn your vertical. You'll run full-lifecycle recruitment for a technical vertical, becoming the person hiring leaders in it trust first.\nBuild direct-sourcing pipelines. You'll proactively map and engage candidates for your recurring or hardest-to-fill roles, rather than waiting on inbound applications.\nBusiness partner, not just recruit. You'll shape realistic requirements with hiring leaders and push back where a brief isn't grounded in the market.\nOwn an initiative. You'll take real ownership of a TA project such as early careers: shaping, running and improving it, not just executing someone else's plan.\nKeep the data honest. You'll maintain clean Ashby data for your vertical, so team-wide reporting can be trusted.\nHelp beyond your desk. You'll pitch in elsewhere on the team when capacity is tight, because the team wins together.\nWhat success looks like at 12 months\nYour vertical is resourced against plan, with a live direct-sourcing pipeline for its recurring roles.\n\nHiring leaders in your vertical come to you early with a problem, not late with a job description.\n\nYour initiative (for example early careers) has moved from a plan to something that actually ran, with a cohort hired.\n\nYour Ashby data is clean enough to report from without checking it first.\n\nYou've built genuine market credibility in your vertical.\n\nWho we're looking for\nA full-lifecycle recruiter. You've owned requisitions from brief to offer, not just one stage of the process.\nA genuine direct sourcer. You build your own pipelines rather than relying on inbound or agencies.\nComfortable owning a project, not just a req. You want a piece of work that's yours beyond individual hires.\nCredible with technical hiring leaders. You can hold a real conversation about what a role needs.\nOrganised at volume. Multiple open roles, an initiative, and a pipeline to keep warm, all at once.\nThe honest part\nYou're joining a team that's being built, not one that's already running smoothly. That means some weeks will be genuinely stretching, and the processes you'd expect to already exist may not yet.\nWhat you get instead is a vertical that's genuinely yours from the start, an initiative with your name on it, and the chance to shape how this team works rather than slot into someone else's system.\nThis probably isn't for you if you want a fully built process to step into. It probably is for you if you want to own a market and a project, not just work a desk.\nIf that sounds like the challenge you've been looking for, let's talk.\nBenefits\nPeriodic offer of share options schemes\n\nDiscretionary bonus scheme\n\n25 days’ annual leave + 5 additional days for training/exams or volunteering\n\nTravel and accommodation expensed where eligible in line with our expenses policy\n\nLife Assurance\n\nLong Term Disability cover\n\nEmployee Assist Programme for employee advice and support (including legal and counselling helpline)\n\nHealth, Mental Health, Wellbeing, Financial and Legal support\n\n24/7 GP access\n\nPublic holiday opt-out scheme giving you the option to work on public holidays creating the flexibility to enjoy your time off when it suits you\n\nIndividual training and development plans with online training and exam costs covered\n\nRecruitment referral scheme - referral bonus if you introduce us to someone we then hire\n\nCustomer referral scheme - referral bonus if you introduce us to a new customer\n\nCycle To Work Scheme\n\nDog friendly office\n\nCloudscaler are proud to be an equal opportunity employer, committed to equal opportunities regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, race, ancestry, age, marital status, disability, parental status, religion or medical history.\nIf you require reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process or within the workplace, please let us know when you speak to our Talent Acquisition team or contact  at the earliest opportunity.","description_format":"text","description_chars":7426,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Annual leave","Pet friendly","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cloud Consulting & Migration"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-05T13:54:08Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-11T20:31:48Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":null,"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":92749,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-12T09:12:04Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":13879,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-13T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":673758},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=673758"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcloudscaler-talent-acquisition-partner"}]}
