At Freetrade, we believe investing should be open to everyone. It’s the single best way to grow your savings, but for a lot of people, investing seems complicated, expensive and remote. We want to change all that.
Our mission is to build a totally new culture around investing: innovative, customer-first and universally accessible. With over £10m in funding so far and as one of the most overfunded companies ever on Crowdcube, we're a growing team poised to disrupt the £1.2 trillion UK retail investments market. And that's just the start.
We are looking to scale - and fast. We've invested early in an internal talent function to help facilitate that growth, and now we're looking for our second Talent Specialist to join our
team.
Over the next 12 months, you will…
- Dive headfirst into understanding and embracing the Freetrade product and internal culture in order to best represent Freetrade to potential employees.
- Develop highly targeted sourcing methods to source high-quality candidates for our open roles.
- Use a variety of platforms to source from, from social media to recruitment platforms, and yes, LinkedIn.
- Crafting high quality recruiting emails, designed to attract the best passive candidates.
- Always be thinking of the bigger picture. Rather than just sourcing for the roles we need right now, you will be constantly looking to broaden your network in order to get a head start on roles we will need to hire for in the near future.
- Be involved in the screening and interviewing process, ensuring that the right people are involved at the right times and that the candidates receive the best possible experience during their first interactions with Freetrade.
- Help us develop our employer brand and diversity and inclusion initiatives, ensuring we build an exceptional team that is reflective of the world around us
