Your role?


As ILM continues its growth in Sydney, we are seeking a Recruiter to join our team of 5 and be a part of this exciting industry.

As the newest Sydney studio Recruiter, you will be responsible for supporting the successful selection and hiring of the best talent for Industrial Light & Magic.

Since our studio opened in 2019, the team has hired 500+ people and there is still a huge runway ahead of us.

You will have ownership of several departments within the studio and will own hiring from when the vacancy is opened to offering the role to a new colleague.


This position does require some understanding of hiring in a creative industry, _ideally_ with knowledge of VFX, animation, or games, and their various artist disciplines, as well as how a production pipeline could work.

Key to this role is the ability to cultivate an environment of care and collaboration, and experience of working in a global company.


What will you be doing?

  • Assess immigration and relocation needs, obtain appropriate approvals and facilitate process with our HR business partners as needed
  • Kick off hiring with collaborative hiring meetings and creating documentation that keeps the hiring team together through the process.
  • Help build a talent pool and maintain global applicant tracking database along with reporting on appropriate metrics for key stakeholders
  • Participate in the continuous improvement of Industrial Light & Magic's employment brand by taking part in various social media campaigns and recruitment events such as career fairs, industry conferences, open houses and school forums
  • Create interview guides/documentation to help scale interview teams and guide interviewers on best practice
  • Help deliver interview training to your interviewers
  • Establish and maintain good partnerships with hiring managers, HR business partners, and the global talent acquisition team
  • Participate in a variety of projects within the global talent acquisition team
  • Build and deliver hiring events in Sydney and other locations

To be a contributing member of this team, you will have a mix of these skills:

  • You have at least 3 years experience in recruitment, ideally (_but not necessarily_) specialising in the creative, VFX and/or animation industries. This can be agency or internal but would love a mix of both
  • You appreciate data for its reality and how it can help drive meaningful conversations in recruitment. We do not measure success just on metrics and this is not a KPI lead environment.
  • You love to learn as you go and have worked in a distributed team. If you haven't before, hopefully you will have always wanted to work in a creative company.
  • You have attended events and have an interest in helping us drive this further in 202
  • You have managed a core req load and up to 7 stakeholders at one time. This role partners closely with department leads, Talent Managers, HR leadership and artists of all levels.
