University Recruitment and Talent Management Leader - Switzerland

ROLE FILLED - HIGH PERFORMANCE LEADER COMMENCED AFTER SUCCESSFUL EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT OFFER

With a workforce made up of globally scarce, niche skilled professionals, this cash-rich, well-resourced company features an executive team that are investing in attracting, engaging, mentoring and developing STEM talent.

As a result, they wish to hire a European Talent Acquisition leader who will lead a team dedicated to the design and delivery of early career hiring programs and development initiatives that effectively enable the company to “grow its own” workforces of the future.

This company has a proven track record in attracting graduates who are interested in challenging and mission-driven work that is literally helping improve the lives of their end-product users. They do however need to scale up the graduate hiring team, and bring global consistency to their approaches for sourcing, engaging, recruiting and developing early career talent.

Globally the company hopes to double its intake of graduates in the coming year, with a heavy emphasis on European markets, so this leader will be relied on to apply a deep specialist approach for graduate talent acquisition, university relations and events, apprenticeships, internships, and management of onboarding and career pathways.

This values-led organisation is keen to secure an expert professional who can ideally offer:

  • fluent English & German language skills

  • direct expertise for graduate hiring - utilising social media, referral programs, in-house events, strong university partnerships and campus-based initiatives to identify, attract and retain future talent

  • direct expertise or interest in developing scalable graduate onboarding, apprenticeship and mentoring programs

  • direct expertise or interest in designing and implementing career and mobility pathways to deliver exceptional early career and graduate talent opportunities.

  • direct expertise for the development of tailored employer branding and value proposition campaigns

  • direct expertise or interest in creating strategic sourcing and sustainable pipelining programs

  • track record of influencing through complex, matrix, multicultural organisations

  • inspiring leadership presence, with an ability to manage a team through the “today” challenges as well as delivering a positive legacy for the future

  • commercial savvy to manage a significant budget, and an ability to influence through data and analytics rather than pure emotion

We have some flex on basing this role from various locations within Switzerland, and relocation support for professionals already based within Europe and/or Great Britain is available. Pending Covid restrictions, occasional (planned) domestic and long haul travel should be expected.  

With a six figure base salary, this role is also eligible for an annual bonus, and a range of benefits - salary is expected to flex dependent on location and expertise levels.
