At INNOCEAN, People & Culture is about more than traditional HR processes. We want to create an employee experience that connects how we attract, support, develop and grow our people together with the organization.

As our business evolves, so does our People & Culture setup. We are building structures, experiences and ways of working that make a real difference for our people and our business - and we are looking for people who want to shape that journey with us.

That is why we are looking for a Senior Talent Acquisition Manager who combines strong recruiting expertise with the ambition to continuously improve how we attract, assess and hire great people.

You will join an existing recruiting setup and bring additional seniority, new perspectives and professional sparring to the team. Alongside your own recruiting mandate, you will have the opportunity to shape selected Talent Acquisition topics and help us create an excellent recruiting experience for candidates, Hiring Managers and our internal team.

Your core responsibilities

Own end-to-end recruiting for complex and senior-level roles - from intake and search strategy through sourcing, interviews and selection to offer management and closing.
Drive proactive sourcing and talent pipelines by developing targeted search strategies, approaching relevant talent and building sustainable networks for recurring and business-critical profiles.
Partner closely with Hiring Managers to define realistic, market-relevant profiles, share insights on candidate availability and compensation expectations, and advise on the most effective hiring approach.
Strengthen hiring quality by supporting Hiring Managers with structured interviews, clear evaluation criteria and well-founded hiring decisions.
Create an excellent Candidate Experience through professional, transparent and consistent communication throughout the entire recruiting journey.

What you will help us shape

Beyond your day-to-day recruiting mandate, we want you to bring your experience, perspective and ideas to the continued development of Talent Acquisition at INNOCEAN. This may include:

Continuously improving recruiting processes, standards and ways of working.
Using recruiting data and relevant KPIs to identify opportunities for improvement.
Strengthening Talent Attraction and Employer Branding together with People & Culture, Marketing/Communications and our business teams.
Exploring new recruiting technologies, automation and meaningful AI applications.
Sharing your expertise and acting as a professional sparring partner within the recruiting team.

Several years of solid experience in Talent Acquisition / Recruiting, ideally around 6+ years.
Proven experience independently managing complex and senior-level recruiting processes.
Strong Active Sourcing expertise, particularly in Direct Search and building relevant talent pipelines.
