Talent Acquisition Partner

ACOR is a national, employee-owned engineering consulting firm, offering a full range of specialist engineering services across multiple sectors. With approximately 400 people across Australia, we are proud of our workplace culture and the contribution our people make to our continued growth.

We have a newly created opportunity for a Talent Acquisition Partner to join our People Team, based in Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne.

As part of our collaborative People Team, you will play an important role in attracting great people to ACOR and supporting our continued growth. You’ll work closely with leaders across the business, taking ownership of recruitment across a varied portfolio of engineering, corporate, support and early careers roles.

Proactive sourcing will be an important part of the role. You’ll build networks and talent pipelines across the engineering market, identify and engage passive candidates and develop different approaches to finding talent for specialist and hard-to-fill positions.

While talent acquisition will be your main focus, you’ll also have the opportunity to get involved beyond recruitment and contribute to broader People initiatives across the business.

Your day-to-day responsibilities

• Manage end-to-end recruitment across a varied portfolio of engineering, corporate, support and early careers roles
• Partner with hiring managers to understand their needs and provide practical recruitment advice throughout the hiring process
• Proactively identify, source and engage candidates using LinkedIn Recruiter, market mapping, networking and other channels
• Build strong talent pipelines for current and future hiring needs, particularly across specialist engineering disciplines
• Deliver a high-quality candidate experience and ensure recruitment activity is accurately maintained within our ATS
• Work collaboratively across the People Team, contributing to wider initiatives and continually improving how we attract talent to ACOR

Your skills & experience

We’re looking for someone who enjoys recruitment, is confident working with candidates and hiring managers and understands the challenges of recruiting in a specialist talent market.

You will bring:

• Recruitment experience within the engineering consultancy or white-collar construction sectors
• Experience managing recruitment from initial briefing and sourcing through to offer
• Strong proactive sourcing skills and the confidence to approach and engage passive candidates
• Experience using LinkedIn Recruiter or similar sourcing tools to build networks and talent pipelines
• Strong stakeholder management, interpersonal and communication skills
• A proactive and collaborative approach, with an interest in contributing beyond recruitment as part of the wider People Team

We’re open to candidates from both in-house and agency recruitment backgrounds. What’s most important is that you understand the engineering talent market and enjoy proactive recruitment and building relationships with candidates.

As part of the People Team, you’ll have the opportunity to get involved beyond recruitment and contribute to broader initiatives across the employee lifecycle.

We offer a hybrid working environment and can consider candidates based in our Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne offices.

ACOR is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

Applicants must have full working rights in Australia and already be residing in the country to be considered for this role.

ACOR will not accept unsolicited resumes from recruitment agencies.
