Healf

<div>
 
 Healf Is Europe's Fastest-growing Company.
 
 
 
 Number one on the FT1000, number one on the Sifted 100. From &pound;1m to over &pound;100m in under three years, with a small, talent-dense team and an electric culture with day one founder intensity. Now we're aiming for &pound;1bn in the next three.
 
 
 We curate the world's best wellbeing brands across The Four Pillars&trade;: EAT, MOVE, MIND, SLEEP. That's the first chapter.
 
 
 
 The next chapter is harder and more interesting.
 
 
 
 We are moving from one market to many, from e-commerce to a technology platform, and from curating wellbeing to defining it. We are a health company, so we think we should act like one.
 
 
 At its fullest expression, Healf redefines what wellbeing means for tens of millions of people.
 
 
 
 Scout
 
 
 
 You already know who the best people you know are.
 
 
 Not the ones with the best marks. The ones who learn faster than everyone else, who make things nobody asked for, who are going to do something extraordinary. You have always been able to see it, and nobody has ever paid you a penny for it.
 
 
 You are early in your career, and most of the roles in front of you ask the same thing. Be patient. Be brilliant quietly, in a big building, for a few years, and one day you will matter. You already know that is not what you want.
 
 
 So here is the role most brilliant people never think to want.
 
 
 On paper it looks like recruiting, so they scroll past. That is the mistake. Every person who ever builds this company walks through one door, and you stand beside it. You decide who comes in. Few seats in any business let one person shape what the whole thing becomes this directly, and fewer still where the work is this human. It is the most consequential doorway we have, and quietly one of the most fulfilling.
 
 
 
 Why this role is Healf
 
 
 
 Healf goes to extraordinary lengths to find the very best people and develop their potential to the fullest. It does this at a moment when what makes a company valuable, and what makes a person valuable inside one, is changing completely. You would be shaping that change, not reading about it.
 
 
 You do not need years of experience for this. Healf reads talent directly, before the badge and the stamp the rest of the market waits for. What counts in a scout is the eye and the judgement, not the length of the CV. We cannot teach the instinct. You already have it. The rest we will.
 
 
 You will scout the full range of talent into the business, from senior leaders to engineers to operators, not only the obvious candidates. And you will build the tools that help you do it. Finding great people is becoming part craft and part software. The analysts of a decade ago had a spreadsheet. You will have Claude, and you will use it on real problems from your first week.
 
 
 You will not only find people. You will play a full part in the performance function that helps them do the best work of their lives once they are here. One seat, the variety of five.
 
 
 
 The work
 
 
 
 You join the performance function from day one, the small team designing how Healf finds exceptional people and helps them do the best work of their lives. You work alongside the people who lead talent, performance science and human performance, and you own real things from the start.
 
 
 &rarr; Scout across the board. Find extraordinary people of every kind, from senior hires to engineers to operators, and bring them into Healf's orbit before anyone else is looking. Not just the obvious ones. The ones the market has not noticed yet.
 
 
 &rarr; Build the tools that find them. Finding great people at scale is becoming something you build as much as something you do by hand. You make the systems that surface people, gather what we know about them, and help us recognise talent consistently. Real tools, shipped by you.
 
 
 &rarr; Run real recruiting. This is not shadowing. You own searches, talk to candidates, and learn to move someone from mildly curious to certain this is the place. It is one of the most useful skills there is, and you learn it from people who are very good at it.
 
 
 &rarr; Play a full part in performance, not just hiring. You sit inside the team that designs how exceptional people are found, settled and developed. You help run Healf's AI programme and notice who is racing ahead, and you are in the rooms for induction and calibration where performance is built.
 
 
 
 A word on building
 
 
 
 Because it matters, and because it is not the thing you fear. You do not need to arrive able to do it. You need to be the kind of person who, handed a hard problem and good tools, has something running by the end of the week. That is newly possible for a sharp generalist. You do not have to be an engineer. You have to be resourceful and quick.
 
 
 This team already works this way. The tool Healf's leaders use to set their priorities each quarter was built inside it, not ordered from elsewhere. The bar is more reachable than it sounds. Give it a year and you will have built things you would not have believed you could.
 
 
 
 What You Will Have Built In a Year
 
 
 
 &rarr; A pipeline of extraordinary people of every kind who already know Healf, that the market has not found
 
 
 &rarr; Tools you built yourself that make the team faster than money can buy
 
 
 &rarr; Real recruiting skill: searches owned, people won, a craft you can show
 
 
 &rarr; A hand in getting the whole company good at AI, and a feel for who is racing ahead
 
 
 &rarr; The start of a real ownership stake in one of the fastest-growing companies in Europe
 
 
 How fast? Your first person should be in conversation with Healf within weeks. Your first tool not long after.
 
 
 
 Why you're Healf
 
 
 
 
 You read people, and you cannot help it.
 
 You have always known who around you was exceptional, often before they proved anything. People fascinate you, in a what-makes-them-tick way, not an HR way.
 
 
 
 You are a natural connector.
 
 People are drawn to you. You know the interesting ones, you run the group chat or the society, and you reach people others cannot. Here that is not a soft skill. It is the job.
 
 
 
 You will build, even if you have not yet.
 
 Hand you a hard problem and good tools and you make something rather than wait for it. Maybe you have automated parts of your own life, or built something nobody asked for. Maybe not, and you simply learn fast and are not afraid of hard things. We are reading the ability, not the receipts.
 
 
 
 You are excited by AI, the way curious people are.
 
 You use these tools because you want to see what they can do, not because someone told you to. The advantage they give someone early in their career is something most companies have not worked out yet. Healf has.
 
 
 
 You have a lot of energy, and you do not wait around.
 
 You do not need a playbook handed to you. You would rather write one. You move before the meeting, and you are driven in a way that is hard to fake.
 
 
 
 You are early, and on your way up.
 
 Not years of experience. Horsepower, curiosity, and the kind of trajectory people notice. Where you start matters far less than how fast you climb.
 
 
 
 You want to be around brilliant people, doing work that matters.
 
 Wellbeing is personal to you. You think about how you sleep, train and eat, and you want to understand what works. The idea of spending your days finding the people who build a company like this feels less like a job than the obvious thing to do.
 
 
 
 Signals we're looking for
 
 
 
 &rarr; One person you know who is going to be extraordinary and has not been recognised yet. Who are they, why do you think it, and what did you notice that others missed?
 
 
 &rarr; Evidence you are a connector. A society or community you run, a network you sit at the centre of, the sort of person others are drawn to. People who are naturally connected reach talent nobody else can.
 
 
 &rarr; Evidence you build, or obviously will. Something you made that nobody asked for, or a hard thing you taught yourself at speed. If you have built something, show us. If not, tell us about the fastest you have ever picked something up.
 
 
 &rarr; Something that tells us this matters to you, and that you go after what matters relentlessly.
 
 
 
 The Deal
 
 
 
 Competitive and meaningful compensation package for the right person. We ask a great deal of the people who work here. We expect full ownership and a genuine commitment to give this chapter everything you have.
 
 
 In return, we will give you the same: everything we have, invested in your growth, your wellbeing, and the defining skills of the next decade.
 
 
 We have built the fastest-growing company in Europe with a team small enough that every person in it shapes the outcome. That is still true today. The next person we hire will change the trajectory of the company.
 
 
 If the most important work of your career is ahead of you, this is the place to do it.
