Job Details

  • Hiring Manager Advisory - Challenge and refine role requirements, success profiles, assessment approaches and market expectations with leaders before recruitment activity begins.
  • Recruitment Portfolio Management - Manage demand, prioritisation, recruiter capacity and hiring timelines across simultaneous requisitions, escalating trade-offs where business demand exceeds available capacity.

  • Market Intelligence - Provide leaders with evidence on talent availability, competitor movement, compensation expectations and location-specific hiring constraints.
  • Agency & Vendor Governance - Select and manage recruitment agencies, assessment vendors and surge partners, controlling cost and holding providers accountable for quality and speed.
  • Team Leadership - Manage and develop Talent Acquisiton Team, progressively moving them from recruitment coordination/execution into independent Talent Acquisition partnering.
  • Hiring Risk & Controls - Maintain disciplined approvals, documentation, reference/background processes and offer governance to reduce hiring, compliance and compensation risk.
