Talent Partner, SEA

Our story

Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts and we're doing that by building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our big vision is to accelerate the world towards a sustainable future where waste is eliminated and all replacement parts are universally searchable, accessible and available to all.

Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise cutting-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size again over the coming 12 months. We're a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia.

We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online.

Our investors in Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.), Square Peg, Octopus Ventures, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder).

We're continuing to build a world-class team and ensuring Partly is a place where people can do the best work of their lives. We're proud of the culture we've built at Partly, and our values are lived throughout every experience.

This role

The Talent Acquisition Partner is a hands‑on, high‑impact builder who helps drive Partly’s next major growth chapter — scaling our team from around 100 to 250 to 600+ people globally.

You’ll play a central role in turning ambitious headcount goals into real hiring outcomes, working directly with leaders and hiring managers to find, attract, and hire exceptional talent across your region. This is a craft‑focused recruiting role for someone who cares deeply about both quality and speed — who thrives in fast growth, brings structure to ambiguity, and ensures every hire strengthens the culture and raises the bar.

You’ll own end‑to‑end processes, build trusted partnerships, and contribute to the systems and talent infrastructure that make growth sustainable. Beyond day‑to‑day hiring, you’ll help design how recruiting scales: improving tools, workflows, and capability across the business so we can move fast without ever compromising on quality.

This is an opportunity to be part of building the most ambitious high‑performing teams in the world and have a real impact.

What You’ll Do

• Own full‑cycle recruitment for SEA‑based roles – from intake through to offer and onboarding – ensuring every hire raises the bar.
• Source and attract top talent through creative, data‑driven approaches — exploring diverse channels (from niche networks to targeted outreach) to build strong, long‑term pipelines.
• Run structured, high‑quality processes – drive clear timelines, set expectations, and deliver an outstanding candidate experience at every stage.
• Build strong candidate relationships by maintaining open, transparent, and responsive communication throughout the hiring journey.
• Use data to drive better hiring – track and analyse funnel metrics to identify what’s working, where bottlenecks exist, and how to continuously improve outcomes.
• Champion employer branding – amplify Partly’s values, culture, and mission in the market through authentic storytelling and community engagement.
• Represent Partly externally at local events and within talent communities, promoting our brand and deepening candidate connections.
• Collaborate with the global Talent team to share insights, align systems, and drive improvements across our recruiting operations.
