We're looking for someone who has a strategic mindset and continuous improvement lens, always looking for ways to enhance processes and outcomes. You'll have strong interpersonal and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to build trusted relationships with executive stakeholders to understand their unique resourcing needs. You'll also thrive in a fast-paced environment and have proven experience in executive search and direct sourcing, with a proactive and creative approach to talent acquisition.

It is essential that you have a strong attention to detail, coupled with the ability to use data-driven insights such as LinkedIn Talent Insights to inform sourcing strategies based on current market trends. You'll also bring proven experience in providing an elite customer experience at all touch points for your stakeholders with a focus on delivering a high standard of candidate care.

This is your opportunity to contribute to meaningful change while developing your own skills in a collaborative, future-focused team. If you're ready to take the next step in your recruitment career and lead initiatives with real impact, we'd love to hear from you
