• Champion candidate experience, ensuring timely communication and a high standard of engagement.
• Leverage automation and TA tools (e.g. Greenhouse, Looker, Brighthire) to improve efficiency and consistency.
• Drive weekly funnel reviews, highlight insights, and partner with stakeholders to remove blockers.

• Excel at building relationships with stakeholders and influencing hiring managers as a trusted advisor.
