We are looking for a hands-on Talent Acquisition Manager to join our growing team in Dubai. This is a strategic and operational role where you will be expected to manage the full recruitment life cycle independently—from sourcing and screening to offer and onboarding. The ideal candidate is resourceful, business-savvy, and capable of operating autonomously in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

• Conduct candidate screening, coordinate interviews, and manage communication throughout the hiring journey.
• Ensure an outstanding candidate experience and maintain a strong employer brand presence.
• Create and maintain a robust talent pipeline for current and future hiring needs.
• Use recruitment data and insights to improve hiring metrics (time-to-fill, quality of hire, etc.).
• Collaborate with HR and business teams on workforce planning and onboarding processes.
• Prepare for and contribute to the development of a recruitment team as the business grows.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or related field.
• 5+ years of full-cycle recruitment experience, preferably in logistics, supply chain, start-ups, or fast-paced environments.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently and manage multiple roles simultaneously without heavy reliance on external support.
• Strong sourcing, interviewing, and candidate assessment skills.
• Experience working with Chinese companies or in multicultural organizations is an advantage.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Fluent in English; Mandarin or Arabic is a plus.
