  • Provide full cycle talent acquisition services utilizing creative strategies for sourcing passive candidates, scheduling interviews, creating evaluation criteria, and managing logistics for executive and hard to fill staff and faculty roles.
  • Support campus partners with administrative tasks including managing search logistics such as updating requisitions, posting meetings, managing candidate inquiries, building interview itineraries and hosting campus finalists.
  • Consult with search chairs, hiring authorities, panels, and committees regarding best practices in hiring. Provides training and education on relevant topics, as requested.
  • Source for top talent and develops talent pipelines through proactive relationship building and networking.
  • Facilitate information sessions, attend events, and coordinate events to build the University of Florida's visibility as a premier employer.
  • Engage talent platforms such as LinkedIn Recruiter and social media sites to develop and implement compelling strategies that engage a broad audience.
  • Lead and participate in broader Talent Acquisition & Onboarding strategic programs or initiatives that advance the use of best practices in engaging and attracting top talent for the UF Community. This may include providing support, in the form of career coaching and networking, for Dual Career Partners and Spouses.
Expected Salary:
54,000.00

Minimum Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in an appropriate area and two years of appropriate experience; or an equivalent combination of education and experience.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience sourcing top talent in and across disciplines and levels in a higher ed environment is a plus
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills
  • Excellent organizational skills
  • Ability to manage projects and events, see the big picture, and attend to the details
  • Commitment to customer service and building authentic relationships with others
