Copy of Talent Acquisition Lead

PLAYGROUND XYZ is an advertising technology business headquartered in Sydney with operations in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Auckland, Singapore, Hong Kong, London and New York.

Our mission is to master the art and science of maximizing attention. To do this, we've built the world's first AI that can measure how long an ad was looked at (a metric we call Attention Time). Fuelled and verified by real eye tracking data, but able to throw off the shackles of panels and instead scale infinitely across the world wide web, our AI is set to revolutionize the way that digital media is measured, bought and sold.

We're a fast growing business working with every major agency group and a great list of top tier publishers using our technology. We're a team of rich media experts with an unrelenting focus on quality products and tech.

Our tech is being used by top 100 brands across the globe. We've won coveted 'Marketing Technology Company of the Year' awards from both B&T and Mumbrella and featured twice as a Rising Star in the Deloitte Fast 50 Technology Awards. Most recently we won the IAB Advertising Effectiveness Award at the Measure Up awards.

We're a passionate, enthusiastic team who are genuinely spending our days doing what we love the most - creating new disruptive technologies and products for big brands.

In late 2021, we were acquired by global ad tech giant GumGum who is fuelling our incredibly high growth and taking our products truly global.

**WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR**:
This role is responsible for the end to end talent acquisition function from our HQ in Sydney. With the support of an HR Manager, this role is responsible for working with our hiring managers across JAPAC to attract and secure top performing talent to meet our growth needs.

Reporting to the Head of Growth, this role will also oversee the rollout of global initiatives across the region, ensuring details are handled across system implementation, training, and reporting to key stakeholders. This role works with the global HR team to also ensure career pages and external employer branding are managed to best practice and will have a 'dotted line' reporting relationship into the VP, Global Talent Acquisition.
