• Labor Market Research & Analysis: Conduct in-depth research on global talent trends, supply and demand dynamics, competitor talent strategies, and compensation benchmarks across multiple geographies.
• Insightful Deliverables: Develop client-ready reports, market maps, and visual presentations that transform raw data into clear, actionable insights.
• Client Engagement: Actively participate in client meetings even in a support function to understand their needs, shape deliverables, and provide consultative value.
• Project Management: Consistently meet deadlines and service-level agreements (SLAs) while managing multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
• Stakeholder Collaboration: Build strong relationships with client partners and internal teams, acting as a strategic advisor and source of talent market expertise.
• Process Improvement: Identify opportunities to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and scalability of Talent Intelligence processes and tools.

• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to interpret and simplify complex datasets.
• Excellent communication and data storytelling skills — able to turn insights into compelling narratives.
• High attention to detail with a good eye for visual presentation and document design. Ability to manage multiple projects and client expectations simultaneously in a fast-paced, global environment.

Preferred Skills & Experience:

• Experience using data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI) or advanced Excel.
• Exposure to AI trends in the workforce and their implications on hiring strategy.
• Previous experience crafting whitepapers, thought leadership, or strategic hiring recommendations.
• Client-Facing Role: Though this is a support function, you will attend client meetings and help shape deliverables.
• Global Exposure: This is a great opportunity for someone with international experience or who wants to grow in a global role.
• Early Hours Occasionally Required: Due to global time zones, occasional early morning calls may be expected. Interested?
