Employer Brand Manager with 13+ years building global EVP and recruitment marketing systems that drive hiring impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Employer Brand Manager with 13+ years building global EVP, recruitment marketing, employee advocacy, and talent attraction programs across complex organizations. At Index Exchange, I built and scaled a measurable, global employer brand from the ground up—translating engagement data, competitor analysis, and executive interviews into storytelling pillars that guide talent marketing and campaign strategy across North America, EMEA, and APAC. I’ve driven standout performance, including 139% LinkedIn engagement growth and improvements in impressions per post, while launching YouTube as a measurable employer brand channel and scaling paid LinkedIn campaigns to exceed impression goals and strengthen buyer development and engineering candidate outcomes.
Earlier, I led an employer brand team as Global Manager and Team Lead, aligning employer brand strategy and EVP with corporate brand and hiring priorities while managing a $300K annual budget and negotiating vendor partnerships. I strengthened employee advocacy by building a 40-member ambassador program, oversaw 100+ global employer brand events, and implemented the Datapeople job optimization platform to standardize job content workflows.
I’m known for cross-functional leadership, DEI storytelling, and connecting employer brand metrics to hiring and engagement outcomes—using dashboards and governance processes that make impact visible to stakeholders.
