I am a strategic Talent Partner scaling global tech and non-tech teams.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic, results-driven Talent Partner with 4+ years scaling globally distributed B2B and B2C companies across SaaS, Fintech, e-commerce and gaming, and an additional 3 years in agency recruitment supporting North American and European clients.
I’ve driven measurable growth—achieving 60% team expansion at Carry1st contributing to $3M+ in annual revenue and scaling Juni by 80% while contributing $5M+—by reducing time-to-hire to 25–30 days, achieving candidate NPS scores of +70 and maintaining high offer acceptance rates. I focus on structured scorecards, competency-based assessments, and diversity-focused sourcing that increased diversity by 40% at Juni.
I build diverse talent pipelines through advanced sourcing, market mapping, and passive engagement, converting 40% of leads into active candidates, and launched referral and employer-branding initiatives that boosted referrals and candidate experience. I optimize hiring operations—launching ATS training to achieve 100% process adherence, cutting bottlenecks by 30%, and improving hiring manager satisfaction to 90%+ while reducing onboarding time by 20%.
I combine advanced sourcing techniques, data-driven hiring, and collaborative stakeholder engagement to deliver high-quality hires and scalable recruitment programs. I hold a BSc in Business Administration (First Class) and HR certifications, and I’m passionate about joining a mission-driven, growth-stage company to lead global hiring and talent strategy.
