We are seeking a Talent Acquisition Specialist to join our HR team and support recruitment for Sales, Corporate, and Commercial positions across the U.S. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career recruiter ready to grow, take ownership of full-cycle recruiting, and contribute to strategic talent initiatives.
You will partner closely with the Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist and business leaders to deliver a best-in-class candidate and hiring manager experience.

  • Manage the end-to-end recruitment process for Sales, Corporate, and Commercial roles, ensuring a smooth and positive experience for candidates and hiring managers.
  • Source, attract, and evaluate qualified talent using creative and proactive sourcing methods, including social media, networking, job boards, employee referrals, and targeted outreach.
  • Screen and interview candidates to assess experience, skills, and role alignment.
  • Provide regular updates to hiring managers, setting expectations and ensuring transparency throughout the hiring process.
  • Draft and post job descriptions, maintain requisitions, and manage candidate pipelines within the ATS.

Projects & Process Support

  • Act as an ATS super-user: maintain accurate candidate records, track hiring progress, and assist with reporting.
  • Identify opportunities to improve the recruiting process, streamline workflows, and enhance candidate and hiring manager satisfaction.
  • Support early-career and pipeline-building efforts, including recruitment events as needed.
Team & Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Partner with the broader HR team to ensure seamless onboarding handoffs and a consistent talent experience.
  • Comfortable working independently, but proactive in seeking guidance and asking questions when needed.
  • Able to adapt to shifting priorities and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred (Human Resources, Business, Communication, or related field). Equivalent experience considered.
  • 2–3 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, preferably supporting corporate, sales, or commercial functions.
  • Strong relationship‑building skills with the ability to influence and collaborate across departments.
  • Experience using ATS platforms and HRIS systems; comfort navigating multiple recruiting tools and technologies.
  • Highly organized, detail‑oriented, and capable of managing multiple priorities with a sense of urgency.
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office
  • Demonstrated ability to adapt to change, think creatively, and bring forward new ideas to improve processes.

This role is perfect for someone who:
  • Is early in their recruiting career but eager to grow and take ownership.
  • Can work independently but sees value in mentorship and collaboration.
