This is a chance for your career to really take off: If people, process and performance sit right in your career wheelhouse, and you have had an eye on a recruitment career, then this will be well worth a look for you. You may already be in agency, or an in-house recruiter, or you may be ready for a change of path. Either way, if you have that special mix of people engagement skills, you can build strong internal relationships and you relate to the pieces of the puzzle when it comes to planning work-streams, then this is a great role.
  
This role sits at the heart of a large and highly regarded Hawke’s Bay business – it’s all about their people, and you will be too. With a wider ownership structure that sees them listed on the NZX, they know investing in their workforce is critical to strong performance.
  
Can you see yourself making a real impact on how they hire? Due to an internal move, our client is looking for a Talent & Engagement Specialist to lead end-to-end recruitment delivery and help create consistently strong candidate and hiring manager experiences.
  
Reporting to the Talent and Engagement Manager, this is a hands-on role where you’ll manage and develop recruitment strategies and campaigns to attract, recruit and retain both permanent and a large seasonal workforce. You’ll manage the full recruitment lifecycle – from briefing and sourcing through to shortlisting, hiring manager support and candidate care – ensuring a smooth and professional process at every stage.
  
You will be partnering closely with hiring managers across the business, helping shape role requirements, interview processes and hiring decisions. You’ll run targeted sourcing campaigns across multiple channels, build talent pools, and leverage technology tools to deliver quality candidates efficiently.
  
We are open to the role you may be sitting in currently.  You must enjoy building strong stakeholder relationships and be comfortable influencing and advising hiring managers. Strong communication skills, adaptability, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, seasonal environment will see you succeed in this role.
  
If you’re looking to take ownership of a varied and impactful talent role within a supportive, high-performing environment, we’d love to hear from you. Remuneration reflects the scale and impact of this role. Please apply through this portal or contact the team at Populous People on 027 386 3877 for a confidential discussion to learn more.
