Senior Talent Partner; FTC)

About Odin

Odin is building the investment infrastructure for the future of private markets.
We believe capital is one of the most powerful tools for shaping the world - and more people should know how to put it to work. Our mission is to make it radically easier to raise and deploy capital, so that anyone, anywhere, can back the companies and ideas they believe in.

Our first product is a full-stack platform for launching and running private investment firms - think Shopify for VC and PE. We handle all the infrastructure: from legal structuring and investor onboarding to KYC/AML, payments, tax, reporting, and exits.

We’re already trusted by over 10,000 angels, VCs, and founders. We administer over $500m in assets, covering investments from pre-seed to series

E. This includes household names like Eleven Labs, OpenAI, SpaceX, xAI, Anduril, etc. but also new companies creating everything from synthetic brains to small nuclear reactors.

Mission

As we prepare to scale and launch in the US, you will bring immediate senior hiring capacity into Odin to close the priority leadership and high-impact roles for Q3 and Q4.

Responsibilities

Reporting to Imani, our Head of People & Talent;

• Drive the end-to-end hiring process for priority leadership and L3+ (Senior) roles, ensuring momentum, clarity, and consistent progress from kick-off to offer

• Take full ownership of pipelines, market mapping, outbound sourcing, and candidate management for critical roles across Product, Engineering, Sales, Design, Ops, and Finance

• Maintain structured scorecards, ensure interview feedback is timely and high quality, and support wash-ups and calibration discussions

• Conduct thoughtful qualification calls, assessing both skills and values alignment

• Set a high trust, human candidate experience from first touchpoint through to decision

• Partner with hiring team in role kick-offs to turn vague or early-stage ideas into clear, aligned role definitions with crisp expectations, level, and impact areas

• Ensure all processes begin with a grounded understanding of what “great” looks like

By the end of the FTC you will have partnered with the team to deliver 4–5 leadership or senior high-impact hires. We may extend the contract depending on priorities, but this window is focused on closing the critical searches at pace.

About You

• You’re a thoughtful, experienced talent partner who cares deeply about people, process and outcomes, with strong internal filters and high standards

• You’ve led multiple hiring processes at once, ideally in a fast-paced, early-stage environment where ambiguity, urgency and competing priorities are the norm

• You have experience in talent operations and attention to detail – spotting blockers early, keeping things moving, and improving systems as you go

• You’re a clear, intentional communicator across async, written and verbal channels – able to bring others with you and influence at a senior level

• You lead confidently in ambiguity, surfacing risks, asking the right questions, and helping hiring managers move forward with aligned, quality decisions

• You adjust your style depending on the stakeholder - balancing care with challenge, and using strategic empathy to support better thinking across the hiring team

• You’ve got excellent hiring judgement across different functions – able to assess skills, behaviours and values alignment, not just experience on paper

• You’re a strong sourcer who knows how to write compelling outreach and build genuine relationships with passive candidates

• You hold high standards for candidate experience and treat people with care, even when things are moving quickly

• You’re curious and improvement-minded - always looking for ways to make the process better, and not afraid to challenge existing norms

• You’re calm and clear under pressure, with strong follow-through and a focus on reducing complexity

• You take ownership for both outcomes and experience - leading processes that others can rely on, and helping us build a better hiring culture along the way

This role is probably not a fit if you..

• Struggle to challenge or influence senior stakeholders – A strong candidate should be able to push back constructively, challenge…
