Talent Partner

Location & Job Type

📍 London (Hybrid Remote)
🕛 Full time

At Tenzo, we’re transforming the way restaurants operate. Our Restaurant Performance Ops platform brings together data from multiple systems to deliver real-time, actionable insights — helping operators boost sales, cut waste, and run smoother businesses. As one of our customers put it, “It’s helped us make smarter, faster decisions and spot opportunities we might have missed before.” We’re a team of food lovers and tech enthusiasts backed by top-tier Silicon Valley investors and guided by awesome advisors including Jane O'Riordan and Floor Bleeker.

We partner with leading hospitality brands like Knoops, JKS, Lina Stores, Time Out Markets, and IHG Hotels — and we’re just getting started. Join us on our mission to help restaurants around the world move from surviving to thriving.

Tenzo is an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, colour, national origin, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, marital status, age, veteran status, or disability status.

We’re looking for a proactive and people-focused People & Talent Partner to shape the next stage of our growth. You’ll own the full employee lifecycle — from attracting and hiring exceptional people to designing the systems and experiences that help them thrive. This is a hands‑on, high‑impact role that combines recruitment, people operations, and culture-building. You’ll partner with leadership and team members across the company to make Tenzo a place where people can do their best work.
