- Create and nurture talent pipelines for critical and hard-to-fill roles
- Deliver an exceptional candidate experience throughout the hiring process
- Use recruitment data to identify bottlenecks and continuously improve hiring effectiveness
- Leverage ATS and recruitment technologies to streamline processes and reporting

- You are an exceptional sourcer with a proven track record of generating hires through proactive outreach
- You are confident partnering with and constructively challenging hiring managers
- You use data and metrics to drive decisions and improve hiring outcomes
