What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a global, data-driven talent organization where I can lead recruiting operating models, workforce planning, and recruiting analytics—partnering with executives to convert growth targets into predictable hiring capacity and scalable delivery.

I’m a Global Talent & Staffing Director with 15+ years scaling recruiting operations across EMEA, LATAM, APAC, and North America. I build forecast-driven hiring models that connect workforce capacity to delivery and revenue targets, improving hiring predictability and cost efficiency.

I lead global recruiting teams and operating models end to end—process design & governance, capacity modeling, bench optimization, and recruiting analytics. I’ve delivered measurable outcomes like reducing cost-per-hire by 65%, increasing recruiter productivity by 30%, and improving candidate experience metrics by 50%.

What I value most is turning data into decisions: I’ve implemented recruiting dashboards (time-to-hire, pipeline health, cost-per-hire, and capacity utilization) and supported executive stakeholder management with executive-level reporting and talent insights. I also modernize systems through ATS transformation and scalable shared services with SLAs across regions.
