About this job

About the role

We are looking for a Talent Acquisition Expert to lead hiring across our client processes and internal teams. You will own the full recruitment cycle, from understanding requirements to joining, and build a strong pipeline of quality candidates in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.

Key responsibilities

• Partner with hiring managers and clients to understand role requirements, headcount plans and timelines
• Create job descriptions and job postings, and manage hiring through Naukri, Indeed, LinkedIn and referrals
• Source, screen and shortlist candidates for voice, non-voice, accounts, sales and technical roles
• Coordinate interview scheduling, assessments (such as Versant) and feedback with hiring teams
• Run offer discussions, negotiate compensation within approved limits and manage notice-period follow-ups
• Drive joining, reduce offer dropouts and ensure smooth onboarding of new joiners
• Manage hiring for multiple clients at once and meet weekly and monthly hiring targets
• Track recruitment metrics: calls, interviews, offers, joinings and time to fill
• Maintain candidate data and share daily and weekly hiring reports with management
• Build talent pools and improve sourcing strategy and candidate experience

Requirements

• Minimum 3 years of experience in end-to-end recruitment (BPO, KPO or corporate hiring)
• Proven record of meeting hiring targets in high-volume and niche hiring
• Hands-on experience with job portals, ATS and social media sourcing
• Strong communication, negotiation and stakeholder management skills
• Good with MS Excel and reporting
• Graduate in any stream; an MBA in HR is a plus
• Willing to work 6 days a week on a general day shift from our Mohali office

Good to have

• Experience hiring for UK or international processes
• Experience in bulk hiring, campus hiring or leadership hiring
• Knowledge of Versant or other assessment tools

What we offer

• Salary: best in the industry
• Ownership of hiring across multiple clients
• Growth into senior HR and recruitment leadership roles

How to apply: Send your CV to ankush@zouma.ai. Bring your CV and photo ID to the interview.

• Level: I assumed 3 to 6 years since “expert” suggests a senior role. Give me a range if you want it different.
• Relation to the HR Recruiter JD: This is more senior than the HR Recruiter (1 year minimum). I added ownership of client hiring and negotiation.
• Salary and shift: I left out any figure and used a general day shift.

Pay: Up to ₹500,000.00 per year

Benefits

• Health insurance
• Leave encashment
• Paid sick time
• Paid time off
• Provident Fund

Work Location: In person
