Head of Talent

About the company

Asseti is the category-defining platform for asset intelligence and operations, used by some of the world's largest real estate owners to understand their assets, optimise portfolio performance, and make smarter operational, maintenance, and capital decisions.

We turn complex, fragmented asset information into a single source of truth - combining real-time condition insights with the operational context needed to prioritise work, manage risk, and drive efficient action across large property networks.

Asseti automates condition detection, triage, repair prioritisation, and cost forecasting at scale. We streamline asset operations by enabling teams to identify issues, understand impact, coordinate responses, and measure improvement - all within one unified platform.

We're building the intelligence and operational backbone that helps leading organisations run their assets with clarity, consistency, and confidence.

The opportunity

We're building out a high-calibre team across Australia and the US, and hiring velocity is set to increase. As our first dedicated Head of Talent, you will architect and run the end-to-end talent function: brand, sourcing, assessment, and candidate experience. You'll partner closely with leadership across GTM, Product, Engineering, and Operations to hire exceptional people, fast, while raising the bar on quality and consistency.

You will own the full recruiting lifecycle and the underlying system that powers it. From building our talent brand and sourcing hard-to-find candidates, to designing structured interviews and enabling hiring managers, you'll be the connective tissue that keeps the engine running. You'll report on funnel health, improve conversion at each stage, and ensure every candidate has a world-class experience. Day to day, you'll be hands-on while also laying foundations for scale, including vendor strategy, tools, and lightweight process that helps teams move with speed and clarity.

• Own candidate experience end to end, ensuring fast, respectful, and transparent comms
• Manage agency and vendor relationships selectively for hard-to-fill or surge needs
• Build early talent and community programs to support the Sydney hub and future US growth

What you will bring

• Demonstrated success hiring in competitive markets and scaling from first principles
• Strength in sourcing, assessment design, and hiring manager enablement
• Data fluency with the ability to instrument funnels and drive decisions from metrics
