• Provide expertise in facilities management (FM), infrastructure, and cloud services, ensuring solutions align with client needs.
• Stay current with Cloud & IT industry trends to anticipate hiring demands and futureproof talent pipelines.

Entrepreneurship & Leadership

• Build, lead, and scale a high-performing team—this role goes beyond individual contribution.
• Establish efficient processes, frameworks, and delivery models to enable sustainable growth.
• Take a proactive, hands-on approach to recruitment, ensuring efficiency while continuously refining talent acquisition strategies.
• Build and sustain a scalable talent pipeline for permanent, contract, and on-demand hiring models.
• Design and implement consultative recruitment solutions, including Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO), contract staffing, and managed services.
• Ensure compliance with MOM regulations, employment laws, and industry best practices while maintaining agility in operations.
• Cultivate strong candidate relationships throughout the recruitment cycle, ensuring a seamless experience and long-term engagement.
• Bonus: Leverage an existing database of customer and candidate contacts to accelerate business development and recruitment.
• Strong background in the recruitment business, preferably within the IT services industry, with expertise in IT recruitment.
• Experience in outsourcing, headhunting, or managed services is a strong advantage.
• Proven ability to secure enterprise clients, tenders, and large-scale staffing projects through strategic business development.
• Demonstrated experience in leading and growing a business unit, with a focus on operational efficiency and expansion.
• Track record in public sector engagements, offshore development centres, and FM (Infra/Cloud).
• Entrepreneurial mindset—eager to build, scale, and push boundaries, with a keen sense of opportunity and innovation.
• Hands-on problem solver who is adaptable, resourceful, and thrives on making things happen.
• Results-oriented, driven by the challenge of creating meaningful impact and business success.
