About Megaport
We’re not your typical tech company – and we don’t want to be. Megaport is the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), and has transformed the way businesses connect to the cloud, data centers, and each other. We’re publicly listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and partnered with the biggest names in tech like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and more. Headquartered in Brisbane with a crew of over 350 people spread across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, our employees enjoy an environment that is collaborative, supportive, and (actually) fun.
Our Team Culture
We’re a team of problem solvers, pixel pushers, code slingers, and cloud fanatics. Culture is more than a poster on the wall here – collaboration beats hierarchy, curiosity fuels our growth, and everyone’s voice matters. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We work across time zones to execute on our global vision, trust each other to get things done, and never compromise our values for commercial gain. Most importantly, we place our customers at the center of everything we do.
Your Role
Megaport is experiencing significant growth, and we’re looking for an efficient, collaborative, and independent Talent Acquisition Specialist to join us as we scale. Based in our Brisbane HQ, you’ll be deeply connected to our teams - helping shape hiring needs, supporting leaders, and welcoming the next wave of Megaporters. As part of our global TA team, you’ll also have opportunities to recruit in new countries and time zones as we continue to expand across the world.
This role suits someone who’s energized by independence and taking initiative. You’ll be trusted to think on the spot, make confident decisions, and adjust as priorities shift. If you enjoy fast-paced problem-solving, working with great people around the world, and contributing to a growing global tech company, this role will feel like a great fit.

- Contribute to a strong team culture by sharing best-practice recruitment approaches, tools, and insights with the wider TA team.
- Share ideas that help us improve and evolve our recruitment processes, enhancing candidate experience as we grow.
What We Are Looking For
- 3+ years of end-to-end recruitment experience, and the confidence that comes from helping a range of teams find great people.
- Collaborative and friendly - you’ll enjoy being part of the HQ team, sharing ideas, and contributing to our culture.
- A natural relationship-builder who enjoys getting to know teams, understanding their needs, and finding great people who fit.
- Someone who can work independently when needed, make thoughtful decisions, and bring a calm, steady presence when things are moving quickly.
- Comfortable switching gears and adapting as priorities evolve - we’re growing, so things can shift in the best possible way.
- Organised and reliable, with a knack for keeping things moving smoothly behind the scenes.
- Strong written communication skills, with the ability to be concise and effective when collaborating across global teams.
- Passionate about creating a positive candidate experience and representing Megaport with warmth, curiosity, and energy.
