This is an opportunity to join a company operating at the forefront of the renewables and environment space and help shape the hiring capability that supports long-term growth.

In this role, you will lead talent acquisition with a strong focus on building effective hiring plans, strengthening recruitment standards, and partnering closely with leaders across the business. You will have the chance to influence how hiring is approached, improve the scalability of the TA function, and contribute directly to the quality and speed of hiring across a broad range of roles.

  • Continuously improve recruitment practices, tools, processes, and standards to build a scalable talent acquisition function.
  • Coach and guide junior recruiters or talent acquisition team members to strengthen sourcing, candidate management, and execution.
  • Personally manage critical, senior, and specialist hiring with targeted sourcing and strong market insight.
  • Own the full hiring cycle from intake, job profiling, and sourcing through screening, interviews, offer negotiation, and onboarding handoff.
  • Manage hiring across engineering, project, finance, sales, corporate, and leadership roles.
  • Build and maintain talent pipelines for recurring and future-critical positions.
  • Partner closely with hiring managers to define clear hiring criteria and refine role requirements where needed.

  • Strong hands-on sourcing experience across LinkedIn, JobStreet, referrals, direct outreach, networking, and other talent channels.
  • Experience using ATS or HRMS platforms.
  • Strong understanding of Malaysian employment practices and local hiring norms.
  • Experience managing the end-to-end recruitment process independently across multiple requisitions.
  • Track record of partnering with and influencing hiring managers, including constructively challenging hiring requirements when needed.
  • Strong candidate engagement and negotiation skills throughout the hiring process.
  • Eligibility to work in Malaysia.

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.
