Talent Acquisition Partner

Role Description

We are looking for builders. Not just recruiters who fill roles, but individuals who take ownership of how hiring gets done and continuously improve it.

As a Talent Acquisition Partner, you will manage full-cycle recruiting across Go-to-Market (Sales, Marketing, Customer Success) or Technical and Corporate functions (Engineering, Finance, HR). You will partner closely with hiring managers across the Americas or EMEA to deliver high-quality hiring outcomes in a fast-paced, globally distributed environment.

This is a high-autonomy role within a lean team. You are expected to operate with urgency, bring a point of view, and manage your portfolio like a business:

• Owning your roles end-to-end, including outcomes, pace, and quality
• Managing multiple searches as a portfolio, prioritizing where to invest time and effort
• Using data to track progress, identify risks early, and adjust approach
• Taking accountability for results, not just activity or process adherence
• Proactively driving decisions rather than waiting for direction

You will be working in a remote, globally distributed environment, partnering across time zones, functions, and cultures. Success in this role requires strong communication, self-direction, and the ability to maintain momentum without day-to-day oversight.

What You Will Do

• Own the full recruiting lifecycle from intake through offer and close
• Manage a portfolio of roles across the Americas and EMEA
• Build proactive pipelines through sourcing, partnerships, and market mapping
• Deliver a consistent, high-quality candidate experience
• Partner closely with hiring managers, running strong intake and calibration conversations
• Proactively identify risks, misalignment, and blockers and drive solutions
• Manage funnel performance including pipeline health, conversion rates, and time-to-fill
• Drive pace and momentum across multiple concurrent searches
• Identify opportunities to improve hiring processes, workflows, and outcomes
• Contribute to and promote best practices and continuous improvement across the TA team

What You Will Bring

• 4+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience
• Experience hiring for GTM or Technical roles
• Experience hiring across Americas and/or EMEA
• Background in a SaaS or other dynamic, high-growth environment preferred

Capabilities

• Strong stakeholder management with the ability to partner, influence, and challenge
• High ownership mindset; able to manage work independently with minimal direction
• Ability to operate effectively in ambiguity and evolving priorities
• Proven ability to deliver quality outcomes in a fast-paced environment
• Comfortable working across remote, global teams and time zones
• Strong sourcing capability and pipeline-building discipline

Benefits

• Sophos operates a remote-first working model, making remote work the primary option for most employees. However, some roles may necessitate a hybrid approach.
• Our people – we innovate and create, all of which are accompanied by a great sense of fun and team spirit
• Employee-led diversity and inclusion networks that build community and provide education and advocacy
• Annual charity and fundraising initiatives and volunteer days for employees to support local communities
• Global employee sustainability initiatives to reduce our environmental footprint
• Global fitness and trivia competitions to keep our bodies and minds sharp
• Global wellbeing days for employees to relax and recharge
• Monthly wellbeing webinars and training to support employee health and wellbeing
