3 billion people across the world work in frontline jobs. Yet, despite rising costs and staff shortages, frontline organisations are still left to choose between paper, Excel, and WhatsApp, or decade-old workforce management solutions to take care of the most important part of their businesses - their people.

Enter Sona: the next generation of AI-native, frontline workforce management. We’ve built an end-to-end platform covering Scheduling, HR, Payroll, and Communications that gives the largest frontline organisations everything they need to staff more intelligently and empower their teams.

In under 4 years, we’ve already made a deep impact on the lives of over 100k frontline workers and the operation of their organisations, grown the team to 120+, and secured over $50M in funding from notable VC’s, including Felicis, Northzone, Gradient Ventures (Google), SpeedInvest, Antler, and Notion Capital, plus notable angels like Tom Blomfield (Monzo).

It’s a hugely exciting time to be joining the team as we’re still small enough that you’ll have a significant impact on the company’s growth trajectory and culture, yet large enough to have a great structure, experienced leaders and world-class benefits in place. More on working at Sona here.

About the Role

At Sona, the Talent team’s mission is to make the strongest possible hires for every position in the team, without compromising on speed. In this role, you’ll directly support that mission by leading the outbound strategy for our most complex and urgent hires as our first Talent Partner focused on sourcing.

With a global and business-wide remit, it’s an opportunity to work closely with a small, experienced Talent team, and senior leaders, to engage the strongest candidates out there through an exceptional story and employer brand paired with high quality outbound strategy. It’s an ideal role for someone excited about building a sourcing engine that can be hugely impactful in shaping the team in a high performing startup.
