About the Role

As our AI-powered Talent Acquisition Business Partner for the region, you will combine outstanding human judgement with intelligent automation to make hiring faster, sharper and more engaging. You will own complex senior professional and specialist searches from intake through offer acceptance, using AI-enabled tools to strengthen sourcing, assessment, pipeline decisions and candidate communication. Working within the global TA strategy and under the direction of the Regional TA Leads, you will challenge conventional approaches, advise hiring managers and uphold rigorous assessment and candidate-experience standards while managing a demanding portfolio with autonomy, pace and consistency. You will also support selected executive and business-critical searches when required.

Key Responsibilities

Full-Cycle Recruitment

• Own end-to-end recruitment for senior professional and specialist roles across the region, from intake to offer acceptance
• Run structured, high-quality hiring processes: challenge role briefs, design interview frameworks, align assessment panels, and negotiate competitive offers
• Manage and prioritise a portfolio of requisitions, maintaining momentum, stakeholder alignment and a consistent candidate experience across every search.
• Support the Regional TA Head on selected senior and executive searches — lead defined workstreams, manage candidate pipelines, and escalate market or stakeholder risks early
• Proactively raise internal mobility options with hiring managers before opening to external market; work with HRBPs to identify internal candidates, run fair and structured internal processes, and ensure internal applicants receive the same rigour and experience as external ones.

Hiring Manager Partnership

• Serve as the day-to-day TA partner for hiring managers across your role portfolio; set clear expectations, provide market data, and keep processes moving within the global TA framework
• Proactively flag risks — market tightness, unrealistic briefs, compensation gaps — and come with solutions, not just observations
• Participate in HR business partner syncs to stay aligned on team dynamics, attrition risk, and upcoming pipeline

Quality & Process

• Ensure every role runs to the Opella global TA standard: structured interview design, panel alignment, bias mitigation, and consistent candidate communication
• Maintain ATS hygiene (Workday) at all stages: accurate pipeline data, stage updates, and candidate dispositions in real time
• Contribute weekly pipeline status updates; surface insights on market conditions, candidate feedback, and process blockers

Requirements

Experience

• 8+ years’ full-cycle, in-house recruitment experience in a multinational environment, with the confidence to lead complex senior professional hiring independently and escalate strategic risks at the right time.
• A strong record of attracting and hiring exceptional mid-to-senior professionals across multiple functions and markets.
• Experience partnering effectively with RPO providers and specialist recruitment agencies.
• Demonstrated success leading senior and executive search processes from brief through appointment.

Skills & Competencies

• AI-forward talent advisor and change catalyst — you identify where AI can remove friction, pilot practical solutions, challenge weak outputs and help hiring managers adopt better ways of working.
• Rigorous assessment designer — you turn role requirements into measurable criteria, build structured interview guides, calibrate panels and use evidence to improve hiring decisions.
• Data and AI literate — you diagnose funnel bottlenecks, validate AI-generated recommendations for quality and bias, and translate insights into clear actions that improve speed, conversion and candidate quality.
• Influential communicator — you give candidates clear, timely updates and guide hiring managers through trade-offs, risks and decisions with concise, credible recommendations.
• Accountable portfolio owner — you prioritise competing searches, set milestones, escalate blockers early and maintain quality and momentum across a high-volume workload.

Education

• University degree or equivalent professional experience
• CIPD, SHRM, or regional HR/TA certification is a plus

Systems

• Proficient in Workday ATS or equivalent enterprise ATS — Workday strongly preferred
• Proficient with LinkedIn Recruiter and core sourcing tools
• Hands-on experience with Paradox, HiredScore and other AI-powered recruitment automation tools is a must.

Languages

• English: Fluent — required
• Additional EU languages: a plus

Nice to Have

• Experience in FMCG, consumer health industry
• Familiarity with structured assessment frameworks
• Exposure to employer branding or talent marketing initiatives
