Job description

Help us build something new. Connect talent across APAC.

Great hiring takes more than finding the right person. It takes thoughtful coordination, clear communication and someone who makes sure the details come together. That’s where you come in.

As our Talent Acquisition Operations Specialist, you’ll be part of the team that will help establish our APAC TA Hub and shape how we support recruitment across the region. You’ll work with recruiters, hiring managers, candidates and HR colleagues across countries and cultures, using your language skills and operational expertise to keep hiring moving.

From coordinating interviews to improving workflows, your work will make the recruitment experience smoother for everyone. You’ll give recruiters more time to focus on people, while helping candidates feel informed and supported throughout their journey.

If you enjoy connecting people, bringing order to busy processes and finding better ways to work, we’d love to meet you.

What You Will Do

Keep recruitment moving

• Manage requisition workflows, from completeness checks and job postings to updates and closures, following approved processes.
• Keep candidate records and recruitment stages accurate and up to date in Workday and other approved systems.
• Stay on top of outstanding actions, approvals and documentation, flagging delays before they become bigger issues.
• Make handoffs between recruiters, hiring teams and HR operations clear and seamless.

Bring people and calendars together

• Coordinate interviews across countries
• Arrange interview panels, virtual meetings and clear candidate instructions.
• Keep candidates and interviewers informed about schedules, changes and next steps.
• Follow up on interview feedback and outstanding actions to maintain momentum.
• Resolve everyday scheduling challenges independently and involve the right partners when issues need additional support.

Put your language skills to work

• Communicate confidently and professionally in English and Mandarin and/or Cantonese for assigned recruitment activities.
• Support candidate inquiries, scheduling and administrative follow ups in the appropriate language.
• Partner with country HR Partners to ensure communications are clear, culturally appropriate and relevant to the local market.
• Connect with country teams when a request requires language expertise beyond your own.

Help candidates take the next step

• Support offer administration using approved templates, workflows and recruiter guidance.
• Follow up with candidates, approved vendors and internal teams to keep preemployment activities progressing.
• Coordinate readiness for hire and onboarding handoffs with recruiters and HR operations.
• Flag discrepancies and sensitive matters to the appropriate decision makers, keeping eligibility, medical and hiring decisions with authorized owners.
• Maintain recruitment data that colleagues can rely on.
• Track turnaround times, workload, outstanding cases and rework against agreed service levels.
• Prepare operational reports and highlight recurring delays or opportunities for improvement.
• Carry out quality checks and help resolve issues at their source.
• Protect candidate and employee information in line with company privacy, security and records retention requirements.

Help build and improve the Hub

• Take an active role in process mapping, knowledge transfer, pilot activities and country onboarding.
• Create practical process guides, checklists, standard operating procedures and communication templates.
• Bring ideas that simplify workflows, reduce manual effort and improve service quality.
• Help test approved system enhancements and automation initiatives.
• Share your knowledge and provide process guidance to Hub colleagues, including contractors, as assigned by the Lead.
