TALENT PARTNER – PROPERTY SERVICES

•Odevo UK • £Competitive, aligned to experience • Hybrid – London Office/Home Based

ROLE OVERVIEW

If you’re a Talent Partner who thrives in niche, candidate-short markets and enjoys influencing hiring decisions, this is that role.

You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of Property Services recruitment across Odevo UK, including building surveying and fire and risk assessment roles. These are specialist, hard-to-fill positions where your ability to engage talent and guide hiring managers will directly impact business growth.

This is a true partnering role. You won’t just deliver roles, you’ll shape hiring strategy, challenge thinking and build a specialist market within the business.

ROLE EXPECTATIONS

You’ll operate as a trusted Talent Partner, not just a recruiter.

This role requires:

• Strong stakeholder management
• Confidence to challenge and influence hiring decisions
• The ability to manage competing priorities across multiple business areas

You’ll be expected to bring structure, insight and direction to hiring, not just activity.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

You’ll be successful in this role if:

• You deliver high-quality hires in a competitive, candidate-short market
• Hiring managers trust your judgement and involve you early
• You proactively shape hiring strategy, not just respond to briefs
• You build strong pipelines that reduce reliance on reactive hiring
• Candidates are engaged, well-managed and informed throughout
• You bring ideas that improve hiring outcomes and processes

HOW YOU’LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME

Most weeks, you’ll be:

• Owning end-to-end recruitment for specialist roles across fire safety, building surveying and risk assessment
• Partnering with hiring managers to define requirements and challenge where needed
• Proactively sourcing and engaging niche talent
• Building and maintaining long-term talent pipelines
• Managing candidate experience from first contact through to offer
• Providing market insight, salary benchmarking and hiring recommendations
• Supporting recruitment across wider Market Services roles (e.g. sales, IT, energy, tech) when required
• Maintaining accurate data within ATS and ensuring process consistency

You’ll work Hybrid, with attendance to our Holborn/London office.

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

This role suits someone who:

• Has experience recruiting niche or technical roles (e.g. surveying, engineering, compliance, property, or similar)
• Is confident sourcing passive candidates in candidate-short markets
• Has operated in a stakeholder-facing role and can influence hiring decisions
• Is comfortable challenging hiring managers and providing market insight
• Can manage multiple roles while maintaining quality and structure

You may currently be:

• An in-house Talent Partner operating in a specialist or technical area
• An agency recruiter looking to move in-house, with experience managing complex or niche roles

EXPERIENCE THAT HELPS

• Experience recruiting building surveyors, fire safety professionals, or similar technical roles
• Demonstrated success in filling hard-to-fill or niche vacancies
• Strong sourcing capability beyond job boards (e.g. headhunting, mapping, networking)
• Experience working in a structured recruitment environment with clear processes and systems
• Ability to provide data-led insights and influence hiring decisions

WHAT WE OFFER

• Competitive salary, aligned to experience
• Hybrid working, depending on role and location
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Annual salary review and discretionary bonus (where applicable)
• Salary sacrifice scheme and option to buy or sell annual leave
• Life assurance and private healthcare after probation (role dependent)
• Wellbeing support and employee extras (Spectrum Life)

ABOUT ODEVO

We are on a mission to become the leading international force in residential property management. What we do matters to billions of people in their everyday lives.

Residential real estate is the world’s largest asset class, and for most families, buying a home is the single biggest financial decision they will ever make. For too long, residential property management has fallen short of homeowners' and residents' expectations, and the industry is ready for change. Odevo was formed to make that change happen.

In just six years, Odevo has grown more than 70-fold, establishing us as the leading international player. We are more than 12,000 people across the US, the UK, the Nordics, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Mexico, and Italy building Odevo. Together, we aspire to break new ground through innovation and cultivate a workplace where we help each other succeed, where ideas matter more than titles, and where kindness is a strength.

By combining the power of people and technology, we set a new standard for how homes are managed. Our technology-enabled services simplify living for residents and create a better experience for property owners and boards.

Our ambition is to continue our fast-growing journey through new customers, service expansion, and by partnering with great companies that share our mindset and ambition, both in existing and new markets.

As we continue to grow, we stay true to who we are, challenge unnecessary bureaucracy, and keep decision-making close to our customers.

If you share our mindset and ambition, we’d love you to join us and help accelerate our mission together.

HOW WE HIRE

• Initial conversation with our talent team
• Interview focused on technical experience, judgement and approach

We aim to complete the process within two to three weeks and communicate clearly throughout.
