We’re hiring a  Strategic Talent Acquisition Partner to help power our next phase of growth across EMEA. This is a high-impact, business-critical role at the heart of Shield’s AI international expansion—supporting new market entries, building and scaling best-in-class  sales and engineering organisations, and partnering with senior leaders to shape our future.

  • Execution with Excellence
  • Own the end-to-end recruitment lifecycle for all roles including senior, critical, and hard-to-hire roles.
  • Partner to design and execute sourcing strategies that attract high-impact engineering and commercial talent across the EMEA region
  • Shape local hiring approaches while maintaining a consistent global hiring bar.
  • Employer Branding & Talent Attraction
  • Act as an EMEA ambassador for our employer brand, ensuring we are positioned as an employer of choice in the region
  • Partner with Branding, Comms, and Leadership to shape and localise our employer value proposition for different EMEA countries.
  • Identify and activate employer branding opportunities (events, content,
    communities, referrals, social presence).
  • Ensure inclusive, consistent, and authentic candidate experience that reinforces our brand and values at every touchpoint.
  • Driving at Scale
  • Use data to forecast hiring needs, track progress, and continuously optimise our recruitment performance.
  • Improve TA processes, tools, and ways of partnering to support speed, quality, and scale.
  • Be a visible voice for talent across the EMEA leadership community.

  • Required qualifications:
  • Proven experience as a strategic talent acquisition partner driving full cycle hiring for both engineering and go to market talent within the defence space or Public Sector Saas space.
  • Demonstrated success supporting new market entries and scaling teams at pace.
  • Strong credibility working with senior leaders and executives as a trusted talent advisor and business partner.
  • Deep understanding of EMEA talent dynamics, sourcing strategies, and competitive intelligence.
  • Highly consultative, commercially minded, and comfortable operating with ambiguity.
  • Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
  • Full-time regular employee offer package: Pay within range listed + Bonus + Benefits + Equity   Temporary employee offer package: Pay within range listed above + temporary benefits package (applicable after 60 days of employment)   Salary compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, licenses and certifications, and specific work location. All offers are contingent on a cleared background and possible reference check. Military fellows and part-time employees are not eligible for benefits. Please speak to your talent acquisition representative for more information.   ###   Shield AI is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is an affirmative action employer.
