What I'm looking for
At Moniepoint Inc., I own talent acquisition strategy for Product and Data, partnering with senior leaders to turn growth priorities into hiring plans. My workforce planning work reduced time-to-open by about 25%.
As Senior Technical Recruiter, EMEA at Moniepoint Inc., I closed 87 technical and cross-functional roles in six months. I also delivered about 40 hires per quarter and sourced across more than 15 countries.
At VanHack Technologies Inc., I was retained as the sole recruiter after a company-wide downsizing. I managed the sourcing and recruitment pipeline and filled active hard-to-fill roles without additional headcount.
