Talent Partner, GTM

<h2>Talent Partner, GTM</h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">Location: London, onsite 4 days a week.<br /> Duration: 12-month fixed term contract</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h3>Retire The ERP.</h3><p style="min-height:1.5em">Light exists to replace factory-era ERPs with software that feels alive. Our Smart Financial Platform gives modern, global companies superpowers: automated accounting, real-time reporting, and financial flows that move at the speed of the business.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">We build with our customers, ship fast, and obsess over craft. In a short time, Light has gone from idea to the operating core for leading companies like Lovable, Legora, and Keyshot. People don’t just use Light, they enjoy it.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">We’re an early team defining a new software category. Think engineers who love debits and credits, designers who care about reconciliation states, and operators who treat finance as a product. If you’re excited to modernise how the world runs money, one workflow at a time, you’re in the right place.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Backed by world-class investors and advised by industry titans, we’re building category-defining products with the freedom to ship ambitiously and own outcomes.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Come help us make Light the global default for next-gen finance.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h3>The Role</h3><p style="min-height:1.5em">We plan to double the team in 2027. Most companies that grow this fast dilute the talent density that made them good. We won’t.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">You’ll hire across GTM: the teams that win our customers and tell the world about Light. One week that might be an enterprise account executive, the next a product marketer or a demand generation lead. You’ll lead Marketing hiring and work alongside our Sales Talent Partner on Sales. It will be fast and at times messy, and you’ll be the person who brings structure to it.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit and screen all day. We want a guardian of the bar: someone who steps back, looks at the whole hiring problem and fixes what’s actually in the way. AI and good process handle the volume. You bring the judgement, and relationships with great people long before we need them.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h3>What You’ll Do</h3><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Own Marketing hiring end to end, from individual contributors to leadership</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Work on Sales searches alongside our Sales Talent Partner, including account executives, SDRs and partner sellers</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Partner with Marketing and Sales leaders from the start: shape the role, challenge the brief, and build the scorecards and calibration that keep the bar high</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Work out why a search is stalling, whether it’s the brief, comp, location, assessment or the market, and fix it. Sometimes the answer isn’t an external hire at all.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Map the markets for the GTM profiles we hire most often and build talent pools, so the pipeline exists before roles open</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Hire internationally, with visa sponsorship and relocation support, as our GTM team expands into new markets</p></li></ul><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h3&
