About inploi

inploi is redefining the future of talent acquisition. We provide cutting-edge technology and strategic expertise to help companies connect with the right talent, enhance candidate experiences, and drive measurable hiring outcomes. Our mission is to revolutionise talent acquisition by combining world-class digital infrastructure with seamless automation, intuitive candidate journeys, and rich data insights.

We work with leading employers - including Compass Group, AS Watson, Wagamama, and Haven - helping them to modernise their hiring strategies, optimise recruitment marketing, and create exceptional employer brand experiences. Our platform powers AI-driven talent attraction campaigns, dynamic careers sites, and candidate engagement tools that ensure businesses stay ahead in an increasingly competitive hiring landscape.

With an ambitious global growth strategy, we are scaling our platform to serve mid market and enterprise businesses across multiple markets and industries. As we continue to expand, we're focused on building a future-proof, data-led hiring ecosystem that delivers results at scale.

The Role

Talent Attraction is a core part of inploi's business, driving significant revenue and playing a crucial role in both foundational and new customer lifecycles. It is a key pillar of our five-year strategy and a major contributor to customer success, helping businesses optimise their recruitment marketing spend. However, we believe there is significant untapped potential, and we are looking for a dedicated individual to take it to the next level.

Are you the person to take what we've built and turn it into a market-leading alternative to paid recruitment marketing?

We are looking for someone who sees beyond traditional job advertising. Someone who thrives on automation, bid optimisation, smarter programmatic rule sets, and new publisher/audience activation. This is a blank canvas, and the opportunity to design and execute a system that outperforms competitors and creates a perfectly efficient recruitment marketing engine.
