Job description

We are hiring a Senior Recruiter to manage client recruitment assignments across a range of industries and functions. Previous recruitment agency experience is essential.

About the Opportunity

We are looking for an experienced Senior Recruiter who takes initiative, owns their results, and is motivated by achieving placements, revenue and recruitment KPIs.

We welcome recruiters from all industry and functional backgrounds. You do not need to specialise in IT or have experience across multiple sectors. If you have particular strengths in an industry or type of role, we would love to hear about them.

You will join a small team where your recruitment results directly contribute to the company's revenue and growth. You will have the autonomy to manage your assignments, propose ideas and take responsibility for delivering successful outcomes.

What You Will Do
  • Manage recruitment assignments from understanding client requirements through sourcing, screening, candidate recommendations, interview coordination, offer negotiation and post-placement follow-up.
  • Recruit primarily for mid-level to managerial positions, with assignments based on client needs and your strengths.
  • Proactively identify and engage suitable candidates through direct sourcing, referrals, professional networks and recruitment platforms.
  • Assess candidates' experience, motivations and career goals to recommend opportunities that support their long-term development.
  • Work closely with clients and hiring managers to clarify requirements, communicate market feedback and keep recruitment processes moving.
  • Prepare candidates for interviews and manage expectations throughout the hiring process.
  • Take ownership of placement, revenue and recruitment KPI achievement, reviewing your progress and adjusting your approach when needed.
  • Maintain accurate candidate records, recruitment pipelines and timely communication with candidates and clients.
  • Contribute ideas to improve sourcing methods, candidate experience and recruitment delivery.

Your core focus will be recruitment delivery for existing client assignments. New client acquisition and commercial contracting are handled by the business owner. People management is not a required responsibility.

What We Are Looking For
  • At least five years of combined experience in recruitment and/or talent sourcing.
  • Previous experience working in a recruitment agency is essential.
  • Experience independently managing recruitment assignments and taking candidates through to successful placement.
  • A proactive approach: you identify what needs to be done, take action and follow through without waiting for detailed instructions.
  • A strong focus on measurable results, including placements, revenue and KPI achievement.
  • The ability to discuss your individual recruitment achievements with specific examples, such as placements within a defined period, revenue generated or target achievement.
  • Strong sourcing, interviewing, stakeholder management and negotiation skills.
  • The ability to manage multiple assignments, prioritise effectively and keep stakeholders informed.
  • Professional working proficiency in English and Mandarin. Mandarin is required to discuss hiring requirements and coordinate recruitment with Mandarin-speaking clients.
  • A genuine interest in candidates' long-term careers and in building lasting client relationships.
  • The ability to work in Malaysia without employer-sponsored visa support.
Why Join CS Malaysia?
Autonomy and direct business impact

We are a small team where each person takes initiative and owns their work. As a Senior Recruiter, you will play an important role in driving company revenue and growth, with room to make decisions and put your ideas into practice.

Performance that is recognised and rewarded

Your contribution matters. Strong recruitment results are rewarded through performance-based incentives, giving you the opportunity to increase your earnings through your achievements.

Opportunities to explore beyond recruitment

If you are interested, you can contribute to new business initiatives, help launch new services, and take on client discussions and negotiations.

Whether you want to deepen your recruitment expertise, explore business management or eventually start your own business, we welcome your curiosity and willingness to take on new challenges. These opportunities are optional and can develop alongside your core recruitment responsibilities.

We believe recruitment can have a lasting impact on people's lives. We look beyond salary alone and aim to connect candidates with opportunities that support their future. We value thoughtful recommendations, honest communication and relationships built on trust.

An additional way to connect with the market

We operate an IT-focused media platform featuring engineers' salary insights and interviews with business leaders from technology backgrounds. This creates opportunities to build industry relationships and explore approaches beyond conventional recruitment channels.

  • Performance-based incentives
  • Medical insurance
  • Social insurance coverage
  • Paid annual leave and sick leave
