Senior Talent Acquisition Partner, GTM & Commercial
People & HR
Bristol, UK
Posted on Aug 26, 2026
We're building the UK's next generation engineering powerhouse, providing critical technology that strengthens national security and resilience.
We specialise in turning advances in sensing, AI, and communications into operational capability for the edge, where connectivity may be degraded or denied. Our work focuses on accelerating the deployment of technology, improving decision-making for frontline teams, and protecting people and critical assets in demanding environments.
Headquartered in Bristol, Rowden employs around 200 people and operates over 20,000 square feet of engineering and manufacturing facilities. We have a growing international footprint and are one of Europe’s fastest-growing engineering businesses.
The Role
Rowden is growing fast. We’re winning programmes, expanding internationally, and building out the commercial teams that will define how we scale. Finding the right sales, business development and capture talent in specialist markets, across multiple geographies, is one of the most consequential things we can do right now.
We’re looking for a Senior Talent Acquisition Partner to own GTM and commercial hiring across Rowden. This is an end to end, specialist role: you’ll be responsible for sourcing, pipeline development, candidate assessment and end-to-end delivery across Sales, BD, Capture, Customer Success and related commercial functions, including our growing US presence.
This is a role for someone who understands that hiring great commercial talent looks different from hiring engineers: the networks are different, the motivations are different, and the ability to assess a candidate’s commercial credibility takes a different kind of judgement. You’ll be part of a small, high-performing People and Talent team, operating as a genuine partner to the business, not a CV-forwarding service.
