Job description

At SiteMinder, we believe our success comes from our people. We build diverse, inclusive teams where different voices, backgrounds and perspectives are valued. Our differences drive innovation for our customers, and our people bring the ideas, expertise and energy that help us keep moving forward. We’re better together.

What We Do...

Right now, somewhere in the world, a hotel is taking a booking or increasing their revenue through technology you could help build. SiteMinder is the world’s leading hotel commerce platform. For more than 20 years, we’ve helped hotels attract guests, maximise revenue, forecast demand and perform at their best. Today, our platform supports 56,000+ hotels in 150+ countries, connects to 3,000+ partners and powers more than 140m reservations and AU$85 billion+ in hotel revenue each year.

That’s the kind of impact your work can have here. You’ll solve meaningful challenges with AI, simplify complexity and build solutions that help hotels perform. Supported by clear purpose, a strong platform and teams who care about what they’re building, you’ll have the opportunity to shape the future of an industry that never stands still.

About the Talent Acquisition Consultant role...(Temporary Contract)

SiteMinder is hiring a contract recruiter to take on a full pipeline of Product, Technology and Go-to-Market (GTM) roles across Asia Pacific. Based in our Sydney office, you’ll work directly with the leaders who are building these teams.

It’s a recruiting role, through and through. You’ll own your searches from the first conversation with the hiring manager to the signed offer, across markets that may include Australia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and India.

What you will to...

• Running a mix of technical and commercial searches at different stages
• Sitting down with hiring managers to agree what good looks like and how we’ll find it
• Approaching candidates directly, and building shortlists that hiring managers want to interview
• Briefing interviewers, collecting feedback quickly and keeping candidates in the loop
• Talking through offers, handling negotiations and closing the candidates we want
• Telling hiring managers plainly when a search needs a different approach
• Keeping the ATS accurate so everyone can see where each role stands
• Passing new starters to the People team ready for a good first day

What you have...

You’ve been recruiting for around five years or more, in an agency or a busy in-house team, and you’ve placed people in both tech/product and sales/commercial roles. You like having a lot on, and you stay calm and organised when plans change.

You’re likely to be a good fit if you:

• Can juggle many searches without dropping the detail
• Build trust quickly with senior stakeholders
• Make sound calls and explain your reasoning
• Close candidates well, including in competitive markets
• Would rather get on with it than wait for a perfect process

It helps if you also have:

• Recruited in several APAC countries
• Worked in SaaS or product-led technology businesses
• Hired product and sales talent

Is this the right role for you?

This is a focused talent acquisition contract. It’s also an office-based hybrid role, so you’ll need to be in Sydney. Given the global nature of our business and this role, some out-of-hours work will be required.

Our approach to inclusion

We want a team with a mix of backgrounds and experiences, and we consider every application fairly. If you’d like any adjustments during the interview process, just tell us and we’ll arrange them.

We also warmly encourage applications from people from underrepresented backgrounds.

Why this contract

• Hybrid working, with three days in the office each week
• An office in the middle of the Sydney CBD, close to public transport
• A catered lunch every week
• Staying Social, which keeps our teams connected
• EAP and other benefits
• Global Exposure, working with people across different countries, cultures and backgrounds
• A positive & supportive environment
