Talent Acquisition Senior Specialist

Mission

Find and grow the right talent — building Finexus into a place where people thrive, not just get hired. We build the technology that keeps banking and payments in Malaysia running every day — and we need the right people to make it happen.

About the Role

• Execute career fairs, campus programs, and targeted hiring campaigns with measurable results.
• Ensure an excellent candidate experience with professional, timely communication.

• Recommend strategy adjustments based on data trends and business needs.
• Strengthen recruitment SOPs, JD quality, and interview standards across departments.
• Maintain high-quality ATS/HRIS data for accurate reporting and compliance.

Stakeholder & Cross-Team Collaboration

• Serve as a trusted advisor to hiring managers, guiding decisions with data, market knowledge, and structured hiring principles.
• Partner with HR Ops on workflow handovers to ensure smooth onboarding.
• Work with Talent & Culture on competency alignment and role clarity for hiring consistency.

Emerging Leadership Scope

• Provide guidance and coaching to junior recruiters when required.
• Lead small hiring streams or high-volume recruitment cycles.
• Influence workforce planning discussions with insights from hiring trends.

What You'll Bring

• 5–8 years of recruitment experience, covering technology, corporate, and/or operational roles.
• Strong expertise in sourcing, interviewing, pipeline management, and hiring-event execution.
• Proven ability to influence stakeholders and manage complex hiring expectations.
• Experience streamlining recruitment operations — e.g., improving workflows, implementing structured screening or evaluation methods, stabilising hiring processes, or setting up scalable recruitment SOPs.
• Analytical mindset — able to interpret hiring metrics and turn them into actionable strategies.
• Structured, methodical, and proactive — able to create consistency and clarity in how hiring decisions are made.
• Able to manage multiple high-priority roles with composure and discipline.
• Experience mentoring junior recruiters is a plus.
• Growth mindset — ready to evolve into a Talent Acquisition Lead role.
