Talent Executive

FitXR is a cutting edge VR and MR fitness scaleup; we’ve got a newly created Talent Executive / Talent Partner role for someone who wants to join a business who takes talent seriously, and add to an already incredible team.

The Role

Working as part of our brilliant people team of 5, this role has been created to focus on driving fair, objective hiring. As with all scaling businesses, we’re sometimes a little late to our own party with knowing exactly what we need and we’re looking to make the shift to a more proactive talent organisation.

This role is all about upholding the integrity of our process, providing an excellent candidate experience, finding ways to make our talent funnel more efficient and of course, keeping the pipelines moving!

What we can provide

• A highly collaborative team of people experience specialists, who manage a huge range of high impact people initiatives - your thoughts, challenges and ideas are actively encouraged - it’s a great opportunity to have exposure to the entire people lifecycle. This includes multiple people with strategic talent experience, so the entire function isn’t on your shoulders!

• A culture built on delivering greatness, sharing feedback and trying new things - you’ll have the space to experiment

• A highly invested senior leadership team who believes a great talent process will take our business to the next level

• Strong talent foundations, but an openness to challenge and improve - we have a solid process, good hiring manager commitment and a lot of documented guidance

• An excellent benefits package - see below

What we’d love to see from you

Our mission is to make fitness fun and accessible for everyone. To build inclusive products, we need to build an inclusive team. Please know that this list is indicative and that we would still love to hear from you even if you feel you only are a 75% match. Skills can be learnt, diversity cannot. We promote a diverse and inclusive culture at FitXR

• A real care for hiring, and wanting to make our approach the best it can be

• An eagerness to over-communicate - with our candidates and hiring managers alike, talent should be the one thing we’re talking about as often as possible

• A continuous improvement mindset; we do some things really well (and others less so!) and we love to see iterative level ups. This comes with an ability to identify and measure what great looks like

• Experience in hiring - ideally technical roles but this isn’t essential and we won’t turn candidates away for not having it

• Experience in working with a diverse group of hiring managers

About us

FitXR is working at the cutting edge of VR and MR; we’re a funded scale-up on a mission to impact more lives than any other fitness company, and build a healthier world for everyone. We’re one of the top-downloaded apps on the Meta Quest store. We’ve raised close to $40m from top investors such as Maveron, Hiro, BoostVC and TriplePoint.

We’re a remote team of just under 100 people from across the US, UK, and Spain, and we’re committed to making it simpler and more enjoyable for people to get moving. We believe that anybody can make movement part of their life.

The FitXR app contains a growing range of fitness studios, where members can choose from box workouts with world-class trainers like Olympian Nicola Adams, powerful HIIT workouts, and immersive dance classes. While nothing compares to trying it yourself, you can watch a trailer here.

We’re guided by our Principles of Play: eight core beliefs (it’s a lot, we know! We’re working on it ) about how we treat each other and our community. We make space for every voice, believe in the importance of a learner’s mindset, and prioritize team success over individual glory
