Trint unlocks the power of speech. Our SaaS speech-to-text platform uses A.I. to automatically transcribe audio and video, making it easy to find the moments that matter. We connect teams for seamless, fast and secure content creation.
Trint is a Series A funded start-up turned scale-up. Founded in 2014 Trint reinvents transcription extending automated-speech-to text so that users can trust the output. Recorded content becomes searchable. I came in as a stand-alone Talent Partner reporting directly to the CEO and was tasked with building the Talent function from scratch.
My Role:
- I managed a team of three direct reports (two Talent Partners and a Talent Coordinator).
- I worked closely with the VP of People creating the People and Talent team’s quarterly strategy, as well as supporting the creation of the People Team OKRs.
- Worked closely with senior leaders supporting them with succession and workforce planning.
I was the champion for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion within the Trint business.
- Responsible for reporting on recruitment metrics to C-suite.
- I was tasked with building and running training courses. Some recent examples are: DE&I, Greenhouse Systems Training, Recruitment 101, Functional Interview Training for new managers & company wide workshops.
- I remained hands-on with recruitment focusing primarily on Executive and Commercial hiring but stepped in wherever I was needed.
Key Achievements:
- Scaled the company up from 40- 120+ employees over a two and a half year period (Toronto office & London HQ).
- Implemented the Applicant Tracking System Greenhouse.
- Rolled-out a Structured Hiring approach across the Trint business.
- Recruited a team of 3 direct reports (two UK based Talent Partners and a Toronto based Talent Coordinator).
- In 2020 92% of our open roles were filled in-house, keeping agency spend to a minimum.
- In 2020 the team reduced the time to hire from 55 days to 34 days.
Recent projects include: Employer Brand, Employer Value Proposition, DE&I, CRM creation (to encourage proactive as opposed to reactive recruitment), Candidate Experience and process/system automation projects.
