I lead APAC talent acquisition operations, governance, and scalable hiring delivery.
What I'm looking for
I've led talent acquisition operations across Klook, Boost Holdings, Carsome, Grab and Accenture, translating workforce plans into controlled hiring workflows, service-level cadences and clear operational reporting. At Klook, I supported 235 hires across Malaysia, Taiwan and Korea and reduced background-verification turnaround from approximately 10–14 working days to 3–5 working days.
I bring 15+ years of recruitment experience across APAC technology, banking, shared services and high-volume multilingual hiring. I build reliable teams, govern vendors and recruitment systems, and improve candidate and stakeholder experience through stronger documentation, dashboards, interview practices and delivery controls.
