What I'm looking for

I want to own end-to-end hiring and improve recruitment operations—using ATS and recruitment tech—while partnering closely with leadership on strategic hiring and a better candidate experience.

I’ve led full-cycle recruitment for technical roles like Developers, Data Engineers, and Project Managers at Ernst & Young, while also streamlining onboarding with stakeholders.

At HSBC Electronic Data Processing (Randstad Payroll), I recruited for Banking & Finance mid to senior roles, managed referral programs, coordinated vendors, and handled contract negotiations and candidate onboarding.
