  • Ensure consistent communication, transparency, and operational excellence across all hiring processes.
Lead Sourcing Strategy & Talent Branding
  • Develop proactive sourcing strategies and talent pipelines across all disciplines.
  • Elevate Doss's employer brand through storytelling, events, partnerships, and content that attract top-tier talent.
Build and Manage a Talent Team
