Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Lead and develop a team of Talent Acquisition professionals responsible for end-to-end hiring across North America and LATAM, ensuring performance, capacity management, and capability growth are consistently met.
• Establish clear expectations for recruiter requisition load, prioritization, and delivery outcomes, with focus on RF1 and business-critical roles to maintain sustainable workload balance and service level alignment.
• Personally manage a limited, temporary full life cycle requisition load only during business-critical demand spikes, recruiter capacity gaps, or transition risks—never as a standing recruiting assignment.
• Hold direct reports accountable for delivering timely, high-quality candidate slates, adhering to discovery, governance, and compliance standards, and maintaining accurate data, reporting discipline, and system adoption.
• Coach recruiters to function as consultative talent advisors, not order-takers, by developing competencies in market intelligence, stakeholder influence, discovery, and data-driven decision-making.
• Identify skill gaps within the TA team and create targeted development plans to build modern TA capabilities aligned with enterprise standards.
• Build bench strength and succession readiness within the Talent Acquisition team to ensure long-term operational continuity.
• Address performance issues decisively using data, clear expectations, and structured feedback mechanisms.
• Serve as a strategic advisor to business leaders, HRBPs, and functional leadership by aligning hiring demand with business objectives, workforce plans, and financial constraints.
• Provide talent market insights to influence role design, prioritization, and timing, challenging assumptions when market or budget realities shift.
• Represent Talent Acquisition as a thought partner in discussions around growth, risk, and operational continuity—elevating TA beyond transactional execution to strategic enablement.
• Embed discovery-led hiring practices across the team to replace transactional intake behaviors and drive consistent, structured hiring workflows.
• Drive adoption of modern TA tools, workflows, and analytics to improve speed and quality of hire, transparency in decision-making, and recruiter efficiency and scalability.
• Set and maintain consistent operating rhythms including discovery checkpoints, prioritization cadence, and performance reviews to standardize TA operations.
• Expand the role of recruiters to include market and talent intelligence sharing, RF1 and financial awareness, and early risk identification and escalation.
• Reinforce accountability to enterprise outcomes: cost efficiency, quality of hire, compliance, and candidate experience.
• Champion continuous improvement and experimentation within defined governance guardrails to evolve TA practices in alignment with business needs.
• Collaborate closely with HRBPs, Finance, Total Rewards, HRIS, Legal, and functional leaders to deliver integrated talent solutions and ensure TA initiatives support broader HR and business strategies.
• Partner with Finance on RF1 hiring, prioritization, and cost discipline to ensure financially disciplined talent acquisition outcomes.
• Lead with clarity, fairness, and data-driven credibility while balancing empathy with decisiveness in high-pressure environments.
• Influence without authority to set and protect TA standards during periods of change, pressure, or organizational uncertainty.
• Own outcomes in talent delivery, develop people through coaching and accountability, elevate TA capability across the organization, influence business strategy through insight, and modernize how talent is acquired and deployed.

🎯 Requirements

• Proven experience leading a Talent Acquisition team across North America and LATAM
• Demonstrated ability to drive modernization of TA practices, including discovery-led hiring and data-driven decision-making
• Strong track record of holding direct reports accountable for performance, compliance, and data accuracy
• Experience partnering with Finance and HRBPs on RF1 hiring, budget discipline, and workforce planning
• Ability to influence business leaders without direct authority and elevate TA as a strategic function
• Experience building succession readiness and developing talent advisors within a TA team

🏖️ Benefits

• Opportunity to work for a global medtech company with a mission to alter the course of lives
• Remote work flexibility across the United States
• Exposure to high-impact, business-critical hiring initiatives across North America and LATAM
• Collaboration with cross-functional leaders in HR, Finance, Legal, and Total Rewards
