About Grantify

At Grantify we make the complex world of grants simple. Our platform combines smart technology with expert guidance to help businesses unlock funding to grow faster.

Since launching in the UK weve helped thousands of innovative companies secure millions in funding. Were now pivoting towards our tech-led grant matching product transforming our services and scaling globally.

Our team of 65 people is spread across 6 geographies (including the UK US and the Philippines). Were a mission-driven bunch who love to solve meaningful problems together.

Why this role matters

Were looking for a Talent & People Partner (hybrid role) who can own end-to-end hiring and also contribute to impactful People initiatives. Youll run hiring from scoping to offer while also helping build the foundations that make Grantify an exceptional place to work.

In the first 36 months youll focus primarily on People initiatives including onboarding internal mobility culture and foundational people frameworks such as progression levelling and comp alongside a couple of live roles. As hiring scales post-pivot recruitment will become a larger part of your role. If you love recruiting and are passionate about building and supporting effective People systems from the ground up this opportunity is for you.

Youll be part of a small but mighty People & Talent team of 3 where everyone rolls up their sleeves and collaborates closely.

• Collaborative and pragmatic - you build trust with stakeholders juggle competing needs and keep things moving.

• Thrives on variety - happy to go deep on some projects and move quickly on others.

• A champion for fairness and inclusion - in how you write job ads design interview panels and build processes.

• Real ownership and impact in both Talent and People.

• A global mission-driven team that values transparency creativity and collaboration.

• Flexibility to work remotely with opportunities to connect in person in London.
