What You’ll Do
Lead regional plant hiring delivery
- Own end‑to‑end delivery of high‑volume plant hiring (hourly, skilled trades, technical, and selected salaried plant roles) across the defined sites.
- Drive predictable outcomes through strong hiring governance, cadence, and discipline (weekly execution + monthly forward planning).
- Run SIOP‑driven workforce execution.
- Partner with plant and operations stakeholders to convert SIOP / demand signals into executable hiring plans and keep delivery aligned as demand shifts.
- Lead and develop a team of 6 recruiters.
- Set clear expectations, coach for performance, and manage priorities across multiple countries and competing plant demands.
Build scalable sourcing and pipeline strategies
- Drive local market strategies across operators/technicians/skilled trades/engineering talent using direct sourcing, referrals, community partnerships, and local networks.
Own hybrid resourcing + vendor performance
- Manage a hybrid delivery model (internal recruiters + contractors + external partners where needed) and ensure cost‑effective, high‑quality execution.
Standardize Plant Hiring Ways of Working
- Embed consistent recruiting workflows, strengthen candidate experience, and drive continuous improvement across sites.
Must‑have Requirements
- Manufacturing / plant hiring management experience with proven delivery in plant environments.
- Proven success in high‑volume, fast‑paced hiring with measurable delivery outcomes.
- Demonstrated capability working with SIOP / demand forecasting and translating demand into hiring execution (rhythm, governance, prioritisation).
- Strong stakeholder leadership with Plant/Operations leaders—able to influence decisions and maintain momentum under pressure.
- Comfortable performing at pace in ambiguity where priorities and demand can change quickly.
Cherry on top
- Strong knowledge of Lean Manufacturing / Six Sigma / Kaizen or equivalent process‑improvement methods and the ability to apply that mindset to hiring flow, speed, and predictability.
- Experience improving end‑to‑end recruiting workflows through metrics, root cause analysis, and operational cadence.
What Success Looks Like
- Plant leaders trust you because hiring is predictable, fast, and controlled, even when demand changes.
- Your recruiting team is clear on priorities and consistently delivering against volume requirements.
- You can explain hiring performance through demand vs. fill, gaps,
and forward outlook, and you act early when risk emerges.
