The People Experience team at Concert is looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist to lead full-cycle recruitment and facilitate onboarding across the organization. In this role, you’ll partner with leaders to attract and hire great talent, delivering on a positive experience for both candidates and hiring managers.

Because recruitment needs fluctuate throughout the year, this role will also provide opportunities to support broader HR administration as needed, making it a great fit for someone who enjoys variety, takes initiative and is eager to support where needed to deliver exceptional employee experience.

This is an 18-24-month, full-time contract position reporting to the Director, People Experience or their delegate.

• Source qualified candidates through job platforms, networking, and industry events, and continually strengthen sourcing strategy to reach talent beyond traditional postings
• Act as a strong brand ambassador, promoting the Company's employer brand throughout the candidate experience
• Facilitate offer management and complete all pre-hire administration (e.g., reference and background checks)
• Initiate new hires in the Company's HCM system, ensuring employee data is accurate and processed on time
• Coordinate the onboarding experience, including new hire logistics, orientation sessions, and serving as the main point of contact for new employees and hiring managers through their first few months
• Support and manage Co-op/Recruitment programs as needed
• Create and improve recruitment processes, tools, and programs to keep them consistent, practical, and scalable
• Track recruitment metrics and maintain the applicant tracking system and candidate database

• Provide broader People Experience support, including program administration and department projects as needed

About You

• Minimum of 3 years of experience as a recruiter, recruitment specialist, or in a similar talent acquisition role
• Experience developing recruitment strategies that generate strong, qualified candidate pools for hiring managers
• Strong understanding of social media and social recruitment tools, with the ability to develop creative sourcing strategies
• Effective communicator, proactive in building strong partnerships with employees, hiring managers, and candidates
• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office, with comfort learning new systems and technology
• Demonstrated attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to prioritize and meet deadlines in a fast-paced, multitasking environment
• Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively, with a willingness to support the People Experience team wherever needed
• Experience in other areas of Human Resources is an asset
• Experience working with Dayforce is an asset

Please note this is a general description of the tasks and skills required. Additional responsibilities and duties may be required to successfully perform this role.
