The posting

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 - our rapidly developed humanoid platform being deployed in real industrial environments - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Senior / Lead Executive Recruiter with deep expertise in executive search within robotics and advanced manufacturing environments. This role is critical in identifying and closing high-impact leadership and niche technical hires in a fast-scaling, high-performance organisation.

You will operate as a trusted partner to hiring managers and leadership, driving complex, high-stakes searches end-to-end, often targeting passive talent in highly competitive markets. Executive search in robotics and manufacturing requires a research-led, network-driven approach due to the limited and highly specialized talent pool.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Lead end-to-end executive and senior-level hiring across robotics, manufacturing, and operations functions

- Own and deliver on highly complex and hard-to-fill roles, requiring deep market mapping and proactive headhunting

- Partner closely with hiring managers and leadership teams to define role requirements, success profiles, and hiring strategies Design and execute innovative sourcing strategies, leveraging:

- Executive search methodologies (retained-style, research-driven approaches)

- Advanced sourcing techniques and modern AI tools

- Deep industry networks and competitor mapping

- Act as a lead closer, managing offer strategy, stakeholder alignment, and candidate negotiations Build and maintain a strong network of senior talent across robotics and manufacturing sectors

- Provide market intelligence, including talent insights, compensation benchmarks, and competitor landscape

- Champion a fast-paced, high-quality hiring process, ensuring speed without compromising candidate experience

- Utilize tools such as ATS systems and LinkedIn Recruiter to drive efficient and data-driven hiring

- Continuously stay on top of emerging technologies, hiring trends, and talent acquisition innovations

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Proven experience as a Senior / Lead Recruiter or Executive Search Consultant

- Strong background in executive search (headhunting), with experience closing senior and leadership roles

  • Demonstrated success hiring within:
  • Robotics / AI / automation
  • Automotive or advanced manufacturing
  • Operations and industrial environments

- Track record of closing complex, business-critical roles in competitive talent markets

- Deep understanding of manufacturing and robotics ecosystems, including engineering and operations leadership roles

- Strong ability to influence and partner with senior stakeholders

- Expertise in direct sourcing, market mapping, and engaging passive candidates

- Experience using modern recruitment tools, including ATS platforms and LinkedIn Recruiter

- High ownership mindset with the ability to operate in a fast-paced, high-growth environment

- Excellent communication, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills

WHAT WE OFFER

- Competitive equity: stock options with meaningful upside as we scale.

- 30+ paid days off, including 23 days of annual leave, all UK bank holidays, and additional company closure days (including Christmas–New Year shutdown).

- Private healthcare, including virtual and in-person care.

- Pension scheme with 8% total contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) on full earnings.

- Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in-office.

- Work at the frontier - collaborate daily with world-class engineers, researchers, and product experts building the next generation of AI and humanoid robotics.

- Real ownership - direct access to founding leadership, meaningful input on product direction, and the ability to drive key initiatives from day one.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
