Our portfolio spans ASEAN and global clients across multiple industries, where we’ve successfully driven large-scale automation programmes, next-gen application modernisation, and enterprise AI initiatives. Recognized as one of Singapore’s 100 Fastest Growing Companies 2024 (Straits Times & Statista) and High-Growth Companies Asia-Pacific 2024 (Financial Times & Statista), we are proud of our track record in building transformation journeys that last.

We partner with leading platforms and ecosystems including ServiceNow, UiPath, OutSystems, Salesforce, Microsoft, AWS, and more — and continue to invest in Centres of Excellence, enablement programs, and Citizen Developer initiatives to accelerate innovation and deliver high-impact digital experiences.

We’re hiring a Talent Acquisition Specialist to help us find exceptional people across Malaysia and the region. Reporting to our TA Senior Manager, you’ll be the face of SimplifyNext to candidates – sourcing top talent, managing end-to-end hiring, and delivering an outstanding experience to every applicant.

This is not just a recruiter role. You’ll be a builder of teams, a storyteller of culture, and a partner to hiring managers across departments. You’ll also get to work with digital tools and AI assistants that streamline recruitment and free you up to focus on high-impact work.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with hiring managers to understand role requirements and success profiles
• Own full-cycle recruiting across tech, consulting, corporate, and delivery roles
• Craft compelling job ads and run creative, targeted sourcing campaigns
• Screen, shortlist, and coordinate interviews while ensuring a stellar candidate experience
• Maintain accurate and timely records in our ATS and recruitment dashboards
• Champion our brand in the market – whether on LinkedIn or in-person events
• Leverage internal tools such as Athena HR (our AI-powered assistant) and smart workflows to speed up recruitment and automate routine tasks
• Contribute to projects that improve our hiring efficiency, diversity, and data insights
• Track market trends, salary benchmarks, and talent intelligence across the region

What You Bring

• 3–5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally in fast-growing or tech environments
• Strong sourcing skills across platforms like LinkedIn, job boards, and networks
• Excellent communication – you know how to engage candidates and influence hiring teams
• Strong sense of urgency and ownership over open roles
• Knowledge of talent markets in Malaysia and Southeast Asia a plus
• Energy, curiosity, and a passion for matching people to purpose

Why Join Us?

• Be part of a growing Talent team with a big mission
• Get hands-on experience hiring across ASEAN and new markets
• Learn from supportive leaders and work with hiring managers who value your input
• Work in an environment that uses AI, automation, and digital innovation to enhance how HR operates
• Play a key role in shaping SimplifyNext’s future team and culture

At SimplifyNext, we’re committed to building a team of curious, driven, and forward-thinking individuals who care deeply about creating meaningful impact through technology. If you’re excited by the opportunity to grow, collaborate, and shape the future of digital transformation across the region, we’d be happy to hear from you.
