You’re someone who is passionate about technology and how technology companies operate to succeed. In people and passionate about cultivating teams by identifying the best and brightest to join them. And you’re someone who cares supremely about company culture and ensuring you find the right fit for people and the business to produce their best work.

The opportunity would suit someone that is a strategic, but logical thinker with the creative flair to deliver the best solutions to hiring needs within the business.

Who We Are

Our mission is to make business more human. We are one of the fastest-growing technology companies in Australia and a global messaging provider that enables businesses to build long-term relationships with customers through the power of conversation. We pride ourselves on providing an easy-to-use online messaging platform focusing on SMS marketing, improving CX, AI messaging, advanced SMS API solutions, and developing new mobile messaging innovations. We have offices in Sydney, Manila, and Vancouver.

What could this look like day-to-day?

  • Managing end-to-end recruitment processes, including the creation of job analysis and position descriptions
  • Partnering with internal stakeholders to provide strategic solutions
  • Develop sourcing methods
  • Respond to workforce capability planning initiatives

Skills, Experience and Qualities

  • Specialist recruitment and in-house selection experience, preferable within blue and white-collar verticals
  • Excellent understanding of full-cycle recruitment processes
  • Experience managing stakeholder expectations and guiding hiring managers based on market insight

You might have some years of recruitment experience or you might have just closed down a business you founded and love finding and building the best teams – or neither one of those but you still match the criteria above. We hire for strengths, not lack of weaknesses – so if you feel like we’re describing you, we want to hear from you no matter your background.

  • Think with empathy
