Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist driving recruitment excellence for technical and data roles.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist with extensive experience identifying and securing top-tier talent for technical and functional roles across multiple industries. I focus on full-cycle recruitment, technical sourcing, and building talent pipelines for AI/ML, Data Analytics, SDE, SDET, and BI roles.
I have led recruitment programs at large organisations, developed tailored recruitment strategies with hiring managers, and implemented structured assessment criteria to improve evaluation consistency. I design and run employee referral programs and employer-branding initiatives that increase high-quality hires.
I champion diversity and inclusion initiatives and have trained hiring teams on interviewing best practices, improving candidate experience and stakeholder collaboration. I use ATS tools and recruitment analytics to continuously refine sourcing strategies and reduce time-to-hire.
I bring a proven record of optimizing recruitment processes, mentoring teams, and advising candidates and hiring managers on career fit and compensation—helping organisations scale hiring for complex technical needs.
