OPERATING MODEL AND ACCOUNTABILITY
The coordinator will be assigned a defined group of roles or candidate activities rather than providing unstructured ad hoc support.
The Talent Acquisition Consultant responsible retains ownership of the hiring-manager or Partner relationship, recruitment strategy and final candidate recommendations.
The coordinator owns agreed candidate-side tasks and maintains clear status records, so recruiters have real-time visibility.
Portfolio progress, priorities, blockers and handoffs will be reviewed through scheduled check-ins, initially expected twice weekly.
Interview scheduling will be allocated selectively where it creates genuine efficiency and does not introduce double handling.
Scope may flex between sourcing, screening, candidate administration and coordination according to team demand and agreed priorities
