Snr TAP 6-Month FTC (High likelihood to extend or go permanent).

We are looking for an immediate starter, so sadly we can not wait for somebody with a long notice period.

TryHackMe is one of the fastest-growing online cybersecurity training platforms in the world.

Our mission is simple: make learning cybersecurity accessible, engaging, and practical through gamified experiences. In just a few years, we’ve grown to 7+ million users globally, and we’re just getting started. 🥷

We’re not a typical workplace.

We’re intense, ambitious, and built for people who want to operate at a high level. We’re a profitable, fast-growing scale-up with 150+ people across 30+ countries.

We move fast, expect a lot and care deeply about impact. Like a top sports team, we hire people who take ownership, push standards and want to win.

If you want to help reshape how cyber talent is engaged globally and build something new inside a high-growth company, this is for you.

If not, that’s okay. This isn’t for everyone!

The Role

This is not a traditional Talent Acquisition role.

As one of the Senior Talent Acquisition Partner, your specific focus will be to design and build a new hiring engine for TryHackMe’s Content Engineering function.

We are making a shift from:
👉 Continuous permanent hiring
➡️ To a contractor / “room builder” model where we move with the speed of the Cyber market and deliver real-world impactful learning to our customers

This means:

• Engaging cyber professionals who stay in their current roles

• Bringing them into TryHackMe to contribute via deliverables, content and advisory/researcher work

• Building a high-quality, on-demand talent network that we can activate quickly as business needs evolve

Your job is to stand this up from scratch and make it work fast alongside TA and Content leadership.

You’ll work directly with management to shape how this model operates, how we attract talent, and how we scale it globally.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Build and launch a new cyber talent programme (contractor / room model)

• Identify, engage and convert high-quality cyber professionals who are not actively job seeking

• Create and scale talent pipelines that can be activated quickly

• Partner closely with internal stakeholders to understand content and capability needs before they arise

• Experiment with new sourcing channels, communities and engagement models

• Use tools, automation and AI to move fast and operate efficiently

• Help shape the employer brand narrative for this new way of working with TryHackMe

What We’re Looking For

Essential

• Cyber / Technical Hiring Experience
  You’ve recently hired into cyber, security or highly technical roles and understand how this talent thinks and operates.

• Experience in Fast-Moving Environments
  Startup or scale-up background where you’ve worked with urgency, ambiguity, autonomy and real ownership.

• Strong Sourcing & Talent Mapping Ability
  You know how to find and engage hard-to-reach talent globally, beyond just LinkedIn.

• Non-Traditional Thinking
  You’re comfortable moving beyond “jobs” and thinking in terms of: Projects, Communities, Advisory talent and Flexible engagement models

• Execution-Focused
  You prioritise action over theory and can stand something up quickly without over-engineering - we call it a fail fast and iterate mentality.

• Stakeholder Partnership
  You can challenge, influence and work closely with internal stakeholders to continuously push success.

• Data-Aware
  You use data and signals to iterate and improve, without getting slowed down by it.

• Adaptability & Communication
  You’re clear, direct and comfortable operating in a fast-changing environment.

Nice to Have

• Existing network within the cybersecurity space

• Experience building contractor, freelance, or community-led talent models

• Genuine interest in cybersecurity and education/learning
