We operate at pace, delivering market-leading content and commercial results across the GCC, India, UK, and US markets.

As our Talent Acquisition Associate/Specialist, you’ll play a critical operational role supporting in all aspects of the recruitment lifecycle for junior and mid-level roles. This is not just a scheduling or admin job – you’ll be trusted with owning key pieces of the hiring process, keeping the engine running efficiently while ensuring a seamless experience for candidates, hiring managers, and the wider People team.

You’ll be the go-to person for executional support. Highly organized, responsive, and detail-oriented, while staying agile and composed in a culture that moves at lightning speed.

  • Conduct first-round phone or video screening interviews for junior to mid-level roles, assessing candidate fit and qualifications

  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date candidate data, statuses, and notes within the Applicant Tracking System (ATS)
  • Track and consolidate interview feedback, proactively following up with hiring managers to keep the process moving efficiently
  • Assist with administrative tasks related to recruitment, such as coordinating reference and background checks
  • Participate in weekly working sessions with the Senior Talent Acquisition Partner to review assigned roles, prioritize tasks, and resolve recruitment challenges
  • Follow up on ad hoc coordination tasks and requests emerging from meetings or recruitment needs
  • Support recruitment events, hiring drives, and candidate pipelining campaigns, contributing to employer branding and talent outreach efforts
  • Conduct research on market trends and role-specific talent pools to inform sourcing strategies
  • Assist in planning and preparation for recruitment drives, university engagement events, career fairs, and diversity sourcing initiatives

Personal attributes and essential skills

The ideal candidate will bring a strong mix of executional excellence and interpersonal maturity. We’re looking for someone who demonstrates:

  • High responsiveness and adaptability – Works efficiently in a fast-paced, constantly changing environment with urgency and accuracy. Able to pivot quickly without losing focus or momentum.
  • Emotionally intelligent — can read the room, respond calmly, and represent the TA team well
  • Active listening and comprehension – Quickly grasp expectations, takes direction well, and asks thoughtful questions to ensure clarity.
  • Exceptional organizational and time management skills
  • Ability to manage multiple active roles and shifting priorities under pressure
  • Structured and process-focused – Brings organization and consistency to workflows, and helps identify opportunities for process improvement.
  • Proactive, positive, and solutions-oriented
  • Calm under pressure – Maintains composure and a solutions-oriented mindset when managing multiple deadlines, last-minute changes, or unexpected issues

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
