Key Responsibilities
  • Talent Acquisition
    • Build strong relationships with business stakeholders to proactively understand their business needs and provide strategic advice on prospective talent market and competitor trends.
    • Collaborate with executive People Leaders and Business Engagement Leads (BELs) to understand executive talent requirements, strategically source, identify and assess prospective talent through long-and short-listing and offer negotiation.
    • Interview and assess prospective candidates against specific capabilities required for executive roles and write-up high-quality candidate reports for shortlist candidates.
  • Talent Development
    • Understand the development needs of our existing and potential executive talent population and support their development by helping coordinate, action and evolve executive development programs, tools and initiatives to aid their executive development and readiness.
    • Represent Telstra effectively in the marketplace and present a comprehensive universe of qualified candidates by partnering with People Leaders and BELs, observing the need for confidentiality throughout the search process and providing a high quality of candidate care aligned with Telstra's Values.
  • Collaboration and Communication
    • Collaborate with other Talent Acquisition delivery teams (particularly Band 1) to discover new ways of working and share sourcing initiatives, driving continuous improvement of innovative recruitment strategies, as well as members of the wider PC&C community (HR and Org Design teams).
    • Ensure Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is top of mind during all recruitment activities, ensuring we stay committed to delivering gender-balanced shortlists, and other agreed recruitment diversity initiatives.

  • Resilience: the tenacity to push through, navigate ambiguity to achieve great outcomes.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • A collaborative mindset, working with others to achieve and celebrate shared success.
