The posting

About Zinnov

Zinnov is a global management consulting firm that helps organizations make decisions that actually get used — and deliver results that matter. For over two decades, we’ve partnered with leading enterprises, high-growth technology companies, and investors to answer some of the toughest questions they face:

  • Where should we invest?
  • How do we scale globally?
  • What capabilities will win in the next decade?

Our work shapes market entry strategies, global operating models, M&A decisions, and long-term growth bets. We’re known for being data-led, execution-focused, and outcome-driven — not opinion-heavy slideware.

At Zinnov, how you work matters as much as what you deliver. We value independent thinking, crisp communication, and early ownership. With 450+ professionals across 10 global offices, we work across industries including Digital Services, ER&D, Enterprise Software, Semiconductors, Healthcare, BFSI, Automotive, Media & Telecom, and Private Equity.

Zinnov isn’t for everyone. It’s for people who want steep learning curves, honest feedback, and the chance to see their work influence real business decisions — not just presentations.

Why Globalisation Excellence (GE)

Zinnov's Globalisation Excellence (GE) practice helps enterprises build and scale Global Capability Centers (GCCs) end-to-end—from Design & Discovery to Build, Scale, and Run.

In GE, you don't work in silos. You:

  • Own complex, end-to-end client journeys
  • Work across GCC advisory, managed services, and BOT / outsourcing models
  • Influence leadership decisions that shape long-term talent and operating strategies

This is where strategy meets execution—and where talent plays a defining role.

About the Role

As Lead - Talent Acquisition, you'll play a critical role in building world-class engineering teams for global organizations. This role goes beyond filling positions—it's about driving talent strategy, building strong technical pipelines, and acting as a trusted advisor to engineering leaders throughout the hiring lifecycle.

You will leverage advanced sourcing techniques, market intelligence, recruiting analytics, and strong stakeholder partnerships to attract, engage, and hire top technical talent across Software Engineering, Frontend, Backend, DevOps, Infrastructure, Data Engineering, and other niche technology domains.

What You'll Do

Strategic Technical Sourcing

  • Develop robust pipelines of active and passive technical talent using advanced sourcing techniques including Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, Stack Overflow, professional communities, and talent networks.
  • Build proactive talent maps for critical engineering skill sets and maintain high-quality candidate pipelines for current and future hiring needs.
  • Leverage AI-powered sourcing tools and modern recruiting technologies to improve sourcing effectiveness and recruiter productivity.

End-to-End Recruitment

  • Own the complete recruitment lifecycle—from sourcing and screening through interview coordination, technical assessments, candidate engagement, offer negotiations, and onboarding.
  • Evaluate technical candidates through structured screening and partner closely with interview panels to ensure high-quality hiring decisions.
  • Deliver an exceptional candidate experience through timely communication, transparency, and effective relationship management.

Stakeholder Partnership & Advisory

  • Partner closely with Hiring Managers, Engineering Leaders, HR Business Partners, and business stakeholders to understand hiring priorities and define ideal candidate profiles.
  • Act as a trusted talent advisor by providing market intelligence, hiring trends, competitor insights, and recommendations on recruiting strategies.
  • Drive alignment on hiring plans, recruitment timelines, and hiring expectations with cross-functional stakeholders.

Recruitment Analytics & Reporting

  • Prepare and maintain recruiting dashboards, hiring reports, and pipeline analytics for leadership reviews.
  • Track key recruitment metrics including pipeline health, conversion rates, time-to-fill, and offer acceptance rates to identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Lead regular hiring review meetings and provide structured weekly hiring updates on pipeline status, hiring challenges, and offer progress.

What You Bring

Qualifications & Experience

  • Bachelor's degree required; Master's degree or MBA in HR or related disciplines preferred.
  • Minimum 7–8 years of recruitment experience with at least 4–5 years dedicated to technical hiring.
  • Proven experience hiring for Software Engineers, Backend Engineers, Frontend Engineers, DevOps Engineers, Infrastructure Engineers, Data Engineers, QA Engineers, and other specialized technology roles.
  • Experience working in fast-paced, high-growth organizations managing multiple technical requisitions simultaneously.
  • Strong understanding of modern Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) such as iCIMS, Workday, Lever, along with LinkedIn Recruiter.
  • Demonstrated success using recruiting metrics and analytics to improve hiring outcomes and influence business decisions.

Key Skills

  • Advanced technical sourcing expertise across multiple channels and platforms.
  • Strong understanding of modern technology stacks and engineering hiring landscapes.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and consultative partnering skills.
  • Strong negotiation, influencing, and offer-closing capabilities.
  • High attention to detail with strong reporting and data analysis skills.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Familiarity with AI tools and platforms to enhance sourcing strategies, candidate engagement, and recruiting operations.
  • Ability to thrive in fast-paced, high-growth environments while managing multiple hiring priorities.

What Success Looks Like

  • Technical Hiring Delivery & Quality of Hire
  • Strategic Technical Sourcing & Talent Pipeline Development
  • Stakeholder & Engineering Leadership Partnership
  • Recruitment Analytics & Hiring Funnel Optimization
  • Candidate Experience & Offer Conversion
  • Recruitment Process Excellence & Operational Efficiency

Why it works

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.
