The posting

We are looking for an experienced and people-focused Talent Manager to lead a team of Talent Management Executives responsible for booking and managing promotional staff across a wide range of brand activation campaigns, including roadshows, experiential activity and PR campaigns.

This is a fast-paced, target-driven role that would suit an experienced team leader or manager from a staffing, resourcing, bookings, workforce planning, recruitment operations or agency environment. You will need strong leadership and organisational skills, a commercial mindset and the ability to manage competing priorities while maintaining high standards.

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.
