TA Functional Strategy

• Assist the Director of TA in developing the overall Talent Acquisition strategy, helping research best practices, benchmark against industry peers, and assemble supporting data
• Help establish and track key TA metrics, supporting the creation of dashboards and regular reporting cadences
• Contribute ideas and feedback as the team’s sourcing philosophy, hiring channels, and employer branding priorities take shape

Process Mapping & Documentation

• Help map the current-state recruiting lifecycle — requisition intake, sourcing, screening, interview loops, offer, and onboarding handoff — identifying opportunities to resolve inconsistencies as well as inefficiencies
• Assist in documenting standard operating procedures (SOPs), playbooks, and workflow guides for each stage of the hiring process

• Provide day-to-day support that frees up senior recruiters and leadership to focus on strategic priorities

• Assist in creation and implementation of candidate feedback surveys
• Lead the summarization of survey results, identifying opportunities for experience evolution
• Ensure candidates receive timely, consistent, and personalized communication throughout the process

Cross-HR Process Support

• Help identify friction points, duplicated work, and opportunities for improvement between TA and adjacent HR processes
• Assist in keeping shared tools and data consistent across HR systems

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years of experience in talent acquisition with consistent growth of formal or informal leadership
• Keen eye and passion for process improvement — identification of opportunities as well as creation of solutions
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail; ability to juggle multiple open requisitions while cultivating connection with business leadership and coaching TA teammates on their development
• A genuine interest in candidate experience and a desire to make every candidate interaction best-in-class
• Experience serving as team SME on TA tech stack and sourcing best practices
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
