You will own end-to-end hiring for corporate and mid-senior roles while building the workflows, automations and dashboards that make our recruitment faster and measurable.

Key responsibilities

Hiring delivery

• Run full-cycle hiring for corporate, marketing, e-commerce, R&D and mid-senior roles, from requisition to joining.
• Source actively through LinkedIn, Naukri, referrals, agencies and campuses; write Boolean searches and personalised outreach.
• Partner with HODs on role definition, interview design and timely feedback.
• Manage offers, negotiation, pre-joining engagement and dropout risk.

Automation and workflow

• Configure and run the ATS : pipeline stages, auto-triggers, email templates, interview scheduling and approval flows.
• Automate repetitive steps such as candidate acknowledgements, feedback reminders, status updates and offer approvals.
• Use tools like Zapier, Power Automate, Google Apps Script or AI tools to connect the ATS, HRMS, email and sheets.
• Map the current hiring process, find bottlenecks and fix them with clear SOPs and TAT standards.

Reporting and analytics

• Build live dashboards for TAT, source effectiveness, offer-to-join ratio, cost per hire and pipeline health.
• Share weekly hiring MIS with leadership and flag risks early.

Vendors and employer brand

• Manage recruitment agencies, job boards and BGV vendors against agreed SLAs.
• Support employer branding and candidate experience across careers page, LinkedIn and campus touchpoints.

Must-have

• 5–8 years of full-cycle recruitment, with at least 2 years in an in-house TA team.
• Admin-level experience configuring at least one ATS (Zoho Recruit, Darwinbox, Keka, Lever, Greenhouse or similar), not just using it.
• At least one workflow you automated end to end, with a measurable result in TAT, volume or effort saved.
• Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills, including lookups, pivots and dashboards.
• Clear, confident communication with HODs and senior leadership.
