About the role
Here, you'll be part of changing how the deals behind the largest asset class get transacted, and will help shape the future of real estate. The strategy. The company-wide hiring plan, built with the CEO, COO and CRO from growth targets. It is your role to define how that plan gets delivered, and you will have full autonomy to do it. From team to tools to operations.
What they're looking for
- A scale-up track record. You have built or materially scaled a talent function inside a VC-backed technology company through a comparable arc, roughly 100 to 300 people
- Precision over volume. Your track record is low-volume, high-calibre hiring. You can point to specific hires that changed a company's trajectory and explain exactly how you found, engaged and closed them
- GTM depth in the US market. You have personally owned go-to-market hiring across AE, CS, BDR, RevOps and Marketing, and you know the New York commercial talent market: who the strong people are, what they cost and what moves them
- Executive search craft. You have designed and run targeted headhunt processes end to end for people who were not looking: market mapping, target lists, multi-touch engagement, assessment and close. You can walk us through the process, not just the outcome
- Executive-team fluency. You hold your own on commercial strategy with a CRO, technical org design with a CTO, planning with a COO, and the talent narrative with a CEO. You operate as a peer who brings a position, not a service provider taking a brief
- US and UK experience. You have run a distributed recruiting team across US and UK time zones with a single operating rhythm, one quality bar and clear accountability in both markets
More about this role
Orbital is the AI platform for real estate legal work.
Real estate shapes the world around us: our homes, our workplaces and our cultural landmarks. It’s the infrastructure that powers everyday life and is the world's largest asset class. Yet behind every single deal, real estate and legal teams work hard to navigate decades-old complexity; manually connecting documents, hidden obligations, geo-spatial context, and multiple parties into a path forward. We connect the legal and physical record, so that path is clearer than ever before. Our mission is to make real estate transactions faster, clearer, and less manual.
Here, you'll be part of changing how the deals behind the largest asset class get transacted, and will help shape the future of real estate.
🚀 We’re building at the forefront of AI technology, without losing the deeply human expertise our clients depend on.
🏢 Orbital is built with former practising real estate lawyers and 250+ years of combined legal expertise. We're purpose-built for the complexity of real estate: accelerating due diligence, drafting and negotiation, and deal coordination with legal-grade precision.
💰 We've just raised a $60m Series B, led by Brighton...
