Optimize the funnel by designing efficient, high-conversion processes and using data to track bottlenecks and improve hiring outcomes.
Manage high-volume pipelines across multiple geographies and languages.
Shape employer brand strategy by boosting visibility and application flow through branding, sourcing campaigns, and local market insights.
Use hiring metrics to scale smarter and identify new ways to improve efficiency and impact.

Proven track record in high-volume hiring (15+ hires/month minimum — more is a bonus!)

Strong sourcing skills. Boolean, social, referrals you’ve got the tools and the tenacity to build robust pipelines.
