What I'm looking for

I seek a senior TA role where I can scale technical hiring, build data-driven recruitment operations, partner with leaders, and develop internal TA capability.

I am a Talent Acquisition Manager with 19+ years of experience building high-performing recruiting functions for large organisations and startups. I specialise in scaling teams across IT, product engineering and consulting by aligning talent strategies to business goals.

At Calix I led a team of technical recruiters and drove headcount from 120 to 400+ in two years while reducing vendor dependency and improving time-to-fill. I implemented assessment and hiring scorecards, partnered on Workday dashboards, and launched the company's first internship drive with strong conversion to full-time roles.

My experience spans global hiring, talent branding, market intelligence, M&A talent integration, and leadership hiring with consistent metrics-driven outcomes. I have used AI-enabled sourcing tools such as LinkedIn Recruiter and Hiretual/HireEZ to build diverse, high-quality pipelines for niche technical roles.

I bring a pragmatic, process-oriented approach to recruitment operations, with strengths in stakeholder partnership, workforce planning, and talent analytics. I am committed to improving hiring quality and candidate experience while optimising costs and building internal TA capability.
