Job Role: Candidate & Talent Manager
Compensation range: $1,800 AUD - $2,000 AUD / Monthly
Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement
Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.
Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

The role works closely within this environment, supporting both client and candidate engagement as part of a close-knit internal team.
Role Overview: We are seeking a Candidate & Talent Manager to work closely with the Director in managing the end-to-end candidate lifecycle and supporting recruitment delivery. This role suits someone senior enough to take ownership, follow direction confidently, and manage priorities independently without constant supervision.
