At Mastercard, I delivered recruitment across EMEA and US markets for AI, cybersecurity, FinTech, compliance, commercial, and marketing roles. I managed the full recruitment lifecycle, from sourcing and screening through stakeholder alignment and offer negotiation.

I maintained a target of four hires per month and achieved LinkedIn Recruiter response rates above 25 percent through targeted sourcing. I also worked to keep pipelines strong and hiring managers satisfied.

At Join Talent, I delivered recruitment consulting and sourcing for multinational clients including Amazon, DigiCert, Real Links, and OneTrust. During the Amazon engagement, I sourced approximately 100 candidates per day; for DigiCert, I hired 12 professionals and generated more than 700K USD in agency fee savings.

Earlier, at Hemmersbach, I managed around 20 open roles monthly and averaged eight hires per month, with 98 percent hiring manager satisfaction. I’m interested in talent acquisition and recruitment work, drawing on experience across international hiring and technical, healthcare, and commercial roles.
