Description At Spotted Zebra, we're building something we genuinely believe in: an AI-native end-to-end hiring platform that helps the world's leading organisations find the right people, faster and fairer than ever before. In short, we're making hiring something everyone loves again - both talent teams and candidates alike. We're a multi-award-winning Series A company giving talent leaders the solution they've always needed. Skills science native. AI-amplified. Built by people who've lived and breathed TA and knew there had to be a better way. Spotted Zebra brings Interview Intelligence, Skills Assessments, and AI Interview Agent together in one powerful platform, designed for intelligence and action. One powerful agent and assistant: Spot. Working the way talent teams need it to, always with humans in control. The result is talent teams get the insight to predict who will succeed, the speed to move before competitors, the governance to defend every hiring decision, and the capacity to focus on the human moments that matter most. But our product is only part of the story. Spotted Zebra isn’t just building an AI-native product; we’re building an AI-native company. AI is changing how we build, sell, support customers and make decisions. We use it to move faster, stay closer to customers, reduce unnecessary processes, and give talented people more leverage in their roles. That means joining Spotted Zebra isn’t just a chance to work on the future of hiring. It’s a chance to help shape what the future of work looks like inside a scaling company: compact, ambitious teams using AI to collaborate better, make decisions quickly, and deliver meaningful impact at speed. The FTSE100 and Fortune500 companies trusting us include British Airways, NIQ, Domino's, Lidl, Merlin Entertainments, AWE, United Utilities, and Paramount. We've been named Personnel Today's Talent Acquisition Supplier of the Year 2025, secured gold across multiple industry awards, and were recently named on the UK Top 100 Startups List. But what we’re most proud of is the team. People join Spotted Zebra because the mission is real, the product is genuinely exciting, and the opportunity to shape the future of hiring is huge. What makes it special is the way we work: smart, committed people in compact teams where trust is high, decisions happen quickly, and everyone has the chance to make a visible impact. If that sounds like the kind of place you want to do your best work - read on. Fun fact: A group of zebras is called a dazzle – and ours truly is dazzling! We create a culture in which our team thrives and gallops ahead. As we roam free and empower our dazzle, we gallop ahead on the journey to achieving our goals. We understand this journey will pose challenges along the way, yet we brighten the trail with our positive mindset and encouragement of others. The dazzle continuously moves, gaining knowledge and skills so that we can graze new grounds. As our Integration Solutions Consultant, you're the technical integration expert our enterprise customers rely on to connect Spotted Zebra seamlessy into the systems they already run on. You join implementations when the conversation turns technical - ATS, Workday and other HRIS, SSO, Outlook and Microsoft 365, data flows and field mapping - and you make integrations work. You won't own the whole implementation (our Implementation Managers and Skills Science Solutions Consultants lead that), and you won't be hands-on building every integration - we have a dedicated Product Integration Engineering team for that. You are the customer-facing front of that team: the person who scopes what's possible, designs how data should flow, and gives customers clear, credible answers on technical feasibility, then works tightly with our engineers to deliver it. If you love untangling enterprise tech stacks, can hold your own with TA Leaders, Recruiters and IT architects alike, and want to shape how a fast-evolving product plugs into the world's biggest employers - this one's for you. Key responsibilities: • Act as the technical integration expert across enterprise implementations, joining solution and discovery conversations when they turn to ATS, Workday/HRIS, SSO, Outlook/Microsoft 365, data flows, field mapping and integration options, • Lead integration discovery - understanding the customer's tech stack, map their requirements to Spotted Zebra's integration capabilities, and translate business goals into a workable technical design, • Design and document field mappings, data flows and integration approaches, including the source of truth between systems such as Workday and Spotted Zebra, and what is standard versus bespoke, • Scope and confirm technical feasibility - what's available today versus on the roadmap - giving customers honest, credible answers and escalating to the Product Delivery Manager and Product only by exception, • Support pre-sales as the integration expert - joining sales conversations with prospects to assess feasibility, answer technical questions, scope requirements, and contribute to RFPs and security questionnaires so deals are set up to succeed at implementation, • Act as the customer-facing front of our Product Integration Engineering team - translating customer requirements into clear integration specs, working primarily with that team's Product Manager (and directly with engineers when needed) to get integrations built, and keeping the customer informed throughout, • Own the integration workstream alongside the Implementation Manager - spotting risks early, coordinating with Product Integration Engineering, troubleshooting issues, and keeping delivery on track to go-live, • Partner with the Skills Science Solutions Consultant on what assessment and AI Interview evidence is appropriate to share back into the ATS, and with the Product Delivery Manager on feasibility and customer-specific product work, • Support phased approaches - enabling customers to go live without a full integration and add ATS/Workday integration later, • Build repeatable integration playbooks, templates and documentation, and feed integration insights back to Product and Engineering to make delivery more scalable, • Provide input to information security, SSO/identity and supplier onboarding conversations as needed, • Help shape the integration roadmap - channelling customer needs, recurring requirements and field insights to the Product Integration Engineering team's Product Manager to inform priorities and influence what we build next Requirements • Hands-on experience designing and delivering integrations between SaaS products and enterprise systems including Workday, SuccessFactors and Oracle, • Strong working understanding of integration methods and concepts - APIs, webhooks, data/field mapping, ETL, SSO/SAML and common HR data flows, • Customer-facing confidence - able to lead technical discovery with both senior business stakeholders and technical/IT teams, and explain complex integration topics in plain language, • Comfortable navigating ambiguity in a fast-evolving product, with the judgement to know what's standard, what's bespoke, and when to escalate, • Experience supporting sales cycles and pre-sales as a technical or solutions expert - comfortable being the integration authority in front of prospects, not just delivering after the deal is signed, • Experience contributing to RFPs, security questionnaires and technical proposals - comfortable with the written and compliance side of enterprise deals, • Strong organisational skills, able to run multiple integration workstreams across concurrent enterprise implementations, • A genuine startup mindset - adaptable, resilient, resourceful, and comfortable delivering something that's still evolving, • Familiarity with SSO/identity (SAML, OIDC), Microsoft 365/Outlook integration, and middleware/iPaaS tools (e.g. Kombo/Merge), • Data literacy or light scripting (JSON, SQL, Postman) to validate and troubleshoot integrations, • Exposure to AI governance, information security processes, or supplier onboarding requirements, • Willingness to travel occasionally for client visits, including potential international travel Benefits Meaningful share options Health insurance Enhanced pension Nursery salary sacrifice scheme ️ 25 days holiday (excluding bank holidays) Remote-first Work from home budget L&D budget Dental cover Eye-care support Co-working space budget Wellbeing allowance ✈️ Travel insurance Electric car scheme Beyond our core benefits, you'll get access to the latest AI-powered tools and technologies, giving you everything you need to do your best work. At Spotted Zebra, we welcome people of all stripes. We are committed to providing equal opportunities and an inclusive and diverse culture. We believe that each and every one of us possesses an extraordinary set of skills and abilities, waiting to be discovered, nurtured, and harnessed for the benefit of all. We are a team. And no matter your race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, civil or family status, age, or disability, we will empower you to unleash your superpower to help us create a world where everyone is able to utilise their unique blend of skills and abilities to contribute to the greater good. Everyone is unique and we encourage you to let us know in your application, or share with your recruiter directly, if there is anything we can do to make your interview experience with us more comfortable and positive. At Spotted Zebra, everyone is welcome. So even if you don't meet all the requirements, we would still love to hear from you. We are always keen to speak with people who are passionate about our mission. Ready to gallop ahead with us? We're a team that moves fast, thinks big, and isn't afraid to challenge how things have always been done. If you're excited about using AI and skills science to transform how the world hires, apply now and a member of our dazzle will be in touch!

Who We Are Hatching Dragons is not a basic nursery group. We are early years development specialists, and the distinction matters enormously. We have built everything — our environments, our curriculum, our family partnerships, our daily rhythms — around a single truth: the developmental window between birth and five is the most significant period of neurological, emotional, and cognitive growth a human being will ever experience. We do not waste a moment of it. Our Development Framework together with a '3C curriculum' — Culture, Character, Cognition — runs through everything we do. It is not a programme, it is a philosophy, made operational in every observation, every Circle Time, every World Food Day, every interaction between a practitioner and a child. We deliver structured multilingual education throughout the day. We have a commercially qualified head chef preparing fresh, nutritionally balanced food for every setting. We have strong research links with UCL’s Institute of Education and Cambridge University’s Child Development and Psychology departments, and emerging relationships with the Anna Freud Centre for a clinically grounded mental health programme for our staff, children, and families. We are a business preparing for significant growth. New settings. New services. National and international expansion. The infrastructure is being built. A fresh rebrand is now ready to carry it, and we are building the leadership team that will take it there. The Opportunity Our Westminster nursery (located in Pimlico) has just completed a significant refurbishment and is preparing to double in capacity from September 2026. This is not a steady-state management role. This is a building role for a leader who wants to shape something, not just run something. You will join a group nursery leadership team that is readying for national and international expansion, have direct line into the Managing Director and will be part of the conversations that shape where this organisation goes next. The Westminster setting is your primary responsibility, but the ambition this role sits within is much larger. The Role — What You Will Actually Do This is a full-scope nursery management role with genuine leadership responsibility. You are not the most senior person in a room, you are the leader of a setting. The following is what that means in practice here. Leadership & Culture • Lead, coach, and inspire a growing team of practitioners, room leaders, and apprentices across all rooms, • Build and maintain the kind of team culture that makes people stay, grow, and deliver their best work, • Model the Hatching Dragons values — the 3Cs, the commitment to development, the warmth and the rigour — in everything you do, • Hold your team to high standards, with the coaching and support to meet it, • Be a visible, energetic, trusted presence in the setting every day Educational Quality & Curriculum • Take ownership of the delivery of the Hatching Dragons 3C curriculum and Child Development Framework across all rooms, • Drive outstanding EYFS practice — with the sights set firmly on operating at exceptional Ofsted standards, • Ensure every child is observed, known, and supported against their developmental milestones, • Oversee the Development Support Plan framework — ensuring every child who needs additional focus is identified and supported proactively, • Lead the multilingual and World Food Day programme delivery with excellence and consistency Operations & Compliance • Manage the day-to-day operational running of the setting — including staffing, ratios, rotas, and resource management, • An opportunity to run the nursery as a business, as a company director, with P&L ownership, • Ensure full EYFS statutory compliance across safeguarding, welfare, health and safety, and all regulatory requirements, • Maintain inspection readiness at all times — the standard that is lived daily, not prepared for occasionally, • Oversee accurate and timely record-keeping, reporting, and documentation across all rooms, • Manage relationships with external agencies, local authority, health visitors, and SEND specialists Family Partnership & Community • Build and maintain exceptional family relationships — treating every parent as a partner in their child's development, not a customer to be managed, • Lead on settling-in, progress meetings, DSP conversations, and room transition communications, • Represent Hatching Dragons to prospective families — conducting tours, converting enquiries, and building the Westminster community, • Be the visible face of Hatching Dragons Westminster in the local community and among existing families Commercial & Growth • Take ownership of occupancy targets and contribute actively to growing the Westminster setting to full capacity, • Lead the nursery sales programme, engaging across the local community to attract potential new parents into the nursery, • Work with the central leadership team on marketing, recruitment, and parent engagement initiatives, • Input into the wider group strategy — sharing intelligence from the setting that informs how we grow Salary & Package £45k - £55k dependant on experience - Performance-related bonuses - Employee benefits platform (virtual GP, EAP counselling, 9,000+ discounts) - Personal L&D budget - Un-capped commission opportunities with every family you bring in About You We aren't looking for JUST a qualified nursery manager, but a leader who is genuinely excited by what we are building and has the capability to help us build it too. You have the foundations • Level 3 Early Years qualification or above (EYFS-approved), • At least one full nursery management role — you have run a setting before, • Strong working knowledge of the EYFS, Ofsted inspection framework and statutory safeguarding requirements, • Experience managing and developing a team of practitioners across multiple rooms, • A track record of building genuine family partnerships, not just communicating with parents, but partnering with them You have the right energy • High energy, high standards, and genuinely ambitious — for the children in your care, for your team, and for the organisation, • Entrepreneurial in mindset — you see what could be, not just what is. You build things rather than maintain them, • A natural coach — you develop people, you do not just direct them, • Calm under pressure and decisive when it counts, • Deeply committed to early years development as a specialism — not just as a job You will thrive here if • You want to be part of building something, not just running something, • You are energised by growth and comfortable with the pace and ambiguity that comes with it, • You believe in our 3Cs — that culture, character, and cognition are the real curriculum, • You hold yourself to the same standard you hold your team, • You want your work to matter — and you are willing to do what it takes to make it Why Join Hatching Dragons? You are joining at the right moment Westminster has just been refurbished. The brand has just launched. The curriculum framework is ready. The team is growing. Over 80 children arrive in September. This is the moment — and you would be stepping into it as the leader who makes it happen. You are joining a group, not just a nursery This is a group nursery leadership role with a single-setting focus. You will be part of a leadership team that includes Nursery Managers across our London settings, the central support team, continuous improvement consultants, and the Managing Director. The conversations you will be part of go well beyond Westminster. You are joining an organisation that invests in its people Every Hatching Dragons team member has a personal L&D budget. Access to a virtual GP and BACP-accredited counselling through our Perkbox partnership. A salary sacrifice scheme through Ezoo. A structured early years mental health programme developed with UCL and the Anna Freud Centre. Commission opportunities for bringing in new families. And a leadership team that is genuinely committed to making this a great place to work — not just in what it says, but in what it does. You are joining at the start of something national Hatching Dragons is preparing for significant expansion — new settings, new cities, new services, and new business models. The leaders who join us now are the leaders who will shape where we go. Safeguarding Statement Hatching Dragons is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This role is subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure, satisfactory references and all other pre-employment checks required under the EYFS Statutory Framework and Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSiE). What Success Looks Like — Your First 3–6 Months Month 1 — Know the setting. Know the team. Know the families Immerse yourself. Spend time in every room, with every practitioner, and with as many families as possible. By the end of month one you will have a clear picture of where the setting is — and a plan for where it needs to go. Months 1–3 — Embed the curriculum. Raise the standard The Hatching Dragons 3C curriculum, Teaching & Learning Master Framework & Child Development Frameworks are ready. Your job is to bring them to life consistently across every room — building the coaching culture that makes high standards stick and establishing yourself as a visible, trusted leader from day one. Months 2–4 — Prepare for Ofsted An inspection is expected. We aim for Outstanding — and that ambition needs to be present in every room, every day. Self-evaluation honest and evidenced. The team able to articulate intent, implementation and impact with confidence. Safeguarding airtight. Months 2–6 — Build the team Westminster grows to 82 children from September. Getting the right people into the right roles — inducted, supported, and developing — is one of your most important early priorities. The team you build now defines what this setting looks like for years to come. Months 3–6 — Drive occupancy Work with the central team to grow occupancy towards September targets. Convert tours.
