Talent Acquisition Lead (9 month ftc)
About Future Group
Future Group is not your traditional financial services company – we're a collective of super funds and services committed to changing our planet now for a better tomorrow. When you join us, you’ll be part of a team united by a clear and important mission: to lead the investment movement by advocating and campaigning for a future worth retiring into.
We're looking for someone to join our purpose-led, high-growth scale-up as a Talent Acquisition Lead on a 9 month fixed term contract.
The role exists to bring brilliant, purpose-driven people into Future Group (and help them thrive), making hiring feel human and seamless while building the talent engine behind our mission to use money as a force for good.
And the best bit, you’ll get to work with some fantastic work mates!
Future Group values diverse lived experience and identities, and we strongly encourage applications from people of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander backgrounds, those with caring responsibilities, from culturally and racially marginalised groups, with disabilities, who experience ageism, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those who face social exclusion due to their social class.
We recognise that the recruitment journey may present unique challenges for trans and gender diverse folk, and we are committed to ensuring an inclusive and accessible recruitment process for all. We will happily make any reasonable adjustments to accommodate diverse needs, so if there is anything we can do to support you at any stage of your application, please let us know.

About The Role
- Own, shape and deliver an inclusive, equitable talent strategy that enables our people and leaders to do their best and most impactful work

- Evolve our approach to talent identification and succession planning, strengthening internal pathways and capabilities, and proactively building external talent pipelines
- Lead and grow our First Nations internship programs, supporting meaningful pathways into the organisation.
You'll love this job if
- You find superannuation opaque and frustrating, if you had the chance to revolutionise the industry to be better for people, you would
- You love sharing your ideas and seeing what happens. At this scale-up, you're not just a small fish in a big pond. Your contributions have a direct influence on our impact and how we work
- You like to be kept on your toes - change is inevitable here. You like to tackle new challenges, and maybe even discover talents you never knew you had.
- You’re equal parts builder, problem-solver and dot-connector
- You like being in it - not just designing the strategy, but making it happen
- You spot great people others might miss (and know how to bring them in)
- You care about fairness, access, and opening doors for more people
- You enjoy turning “we should probably…” into “done”
- You’re energised by owning something end-to-end and continuously improving it
- You use AI thoughtfully, making hiring smarter and simpler behind the scenes, while keeping the experience human where it counts.
We're looking for someone who
- Believes in Future Group’s mission and has a passion for moving Australia’s money out of fossil-fuels and into renewable energy

- Knows how to run great end-to-end hiring (and lift the bar on it)
- Partners with leaders to shape roles, not just fill them
- Cares deeply about candidate experience - creating something human and thoughtful, because how we hire should feel as good as what we’re building
- Has experience with internships, early careers or alternative pathways and is excited to build this here
- Proactively builds and nurtures talent pipelines before they’re urgently needed
- Uses data, judgement and experience to make thoughtful hiring decisions
