We are looking for a high-ownership, strategic, and data-driven Talent Acquisition Team Lead who will operate as the extended brain of the Head of Recruitment .

  • Plan and execute campus recruitment initiatives.
  • Manage vendors only when needed to support scale.
  • What You Bring

    Education

  • Bachelor’s degree in HR, Business Administration, or related field.
  • Experience

  • 5+ years in Talent Acquisition , ideally across fast-paced environments such as startups, ecommerce, or mid-sized organizations.
  • Experience managing high-volume funnels as well as specialized talent searches.
  • Strong analytical and presentation capabilities for reporting TA metrics.
  • Skills & Competencies

    Soft Skills

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder partnership skills.
  • Strong interviewer with a sharp eye for talent quality.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and capable of managing competing priorities.

  • Technical Skills

  • Experience with ATS platforms (Keka preferred).
  • Strong Excel / PowerPoint skills for reporting and dashboards.
  • Familiarity with Canva is added advantage.
