About the Role
Hello, we’re SURI. We're on a mission to radically transform oral care with beautiful everyday essentials designed for life. Championing high performance and future-focussed design, our award-winning sonic toothbrush transforms an uninspiring chore into an enjoyable daily ritual. Since launching in 2022, we’ve delighted over 500k customers across the UK, Europe and US, becoming the highest-rated electric toothbrush on Trustpilot, achieving B-Corp certification, and securing listings in major US and UK retailers. We are profitable, capital-efficient and growing, now scaling across the UK and US.

This role is SURI's first dedicated talent hire. You will build recruitment at SURI from scratch: designing processes, shaping candidate experience, setting assessment standards, and establishing sourcing strategies for international markets. Reporting to the Co-Founder & CCO with a dotted line to the HR Manager, you will work closely with the leadership team across commercial, marketing, product, operations, and international functions.

This is a 12-month fixed-term contract with the opportunity to transition to a permanent role based on business needs. If you want ownership and to shape the people infrastructure of a fast-growing, mission-driven brand, this role is for you.

Role & Responsibilities
- Review and improve current recruitment processes
- Design and implement end-to-end recruitment frameworks including role briefs, structured interview guides, scorecards, and offer frameworks
- Maximise use of the ATS and identify upgrade needs
- Create a best-in-class candidate experience reflecting the SURI brand
- Establish sourcing strategies for international hiring
- Own end-to-end searches across multiple functions, typically managing 3–5 open roles simultaneously
- Collaborate with hiring managers to refine briefs and uphold high assessment standards
- Balance speed and quality in the hiring process, unblocking bottlenecks and maintaining momentum
- Report hiring progress, pipeline health, and quality metrics to leadership
- Manage relationships and communications with specialist recruiters when required

Experience
- Minimum 2–3 years in in-house or embedded recruitment (agency-only backgrounds unlikely to fit)
- Full ownership of end-to-end recruitment processes from brief to offer
- Experience in consumer, DTC, product or FMCG brands, or strong understanding of hiring in these sectors
- Proven ability to build hiring tools and processes from scratch
- Some exposure to international hiring
- Passion for sustainable living is a strong plus

About You
- Structured and process-driven, believing that good process delivers better outcomes
- Commercially aware, understanding the business context behind each hire
- Resilient and adaptable to the fast-paced, imperfect, and sometimes chaotic nature of early-stage companies
- Low ego, focused on making SURI’s hiring great rather than personal recognition
- Consultative, working closely with hiring managers to build ideal candidate profiles and challenge assumptions
- Collaborative but confident to challenge and push for clarity when needed

Qualifications
No formal qualifications required; a strong track record in recruitment and a passion for building effective hiring processes are essential.
