From job adverts to interviews, from campus recruitment to employer branding, you know how to position us as an attractive employer! As a Senior Corporate Recruiter at MTD Water, you’ll ensure the right people are in the right roles across all our global offices, spread across more than 10 countries. For roles in our overseas offices, you’ll coordinate the recruitment process, whilst for vacancies in Tilburg, you’ll have end-to-end responsibility. Whether it’s Project Managers for Events & Festivals, a Site Coordinator at Brussels Expo, Design Engineers, an Account Manager for Events in the USA or Global Fleet Managers, you know how to run recruitment campaigns and have complete freedom to do so!
THE ROLE
You will work closely with your HR colleagues, comprising the HR manager, HR adviser and HR support officer. Following your induction, you will take overall responsibility for all vacancies worldwide. You will independently recruit and select all new colleagues for the head office in Tilburg, and select and coordinate the most effective recruitment agencies for the overseas branches, for which you will be the point of contact. You’ll have the scope and freedom to further shape the entire recruitment landscape. This will involve implementing a new ATS system, setting up and coordinating social media and referral campaigns, boosting our employer branding, and organising campus recruitment activities.
WHO WE ARE
Working at MTD means working for and helping to build a growing, internationally operating family business specialising in temporary water infrastructure – for both drinking water and wastewater – for large-scale temporary projects. Together with our 140 colleagues worldwide – 70 of whom are based at our head office in Tilburg – you will work on and help build major, high-profile projects in the industrial, exhibition and events sectors. These include Tomorrowland, Lowlands, the Olympic Games, World Cup matches, Formula 1, trade fairs at venues such as the RAI and Jaarbeurs, refugee camps and field hospitals.
WHAT ARE YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR?
- Ensuring a steady flow of candidates for all branches;
- A well-organised sourcing process, including the creation of talent pools;
- Optimising our referral and campus recruitment activities and events;
- Co-ordinating recruitment and selection agencies for the overseas branches;
- Effective international stakeholder management in relation to hiring managers;
- Designing and implementing successful recruitment campaigns and onboarding programmes;
- Establishing an excellent employer brand amongst the right target groups;
- Setting up and optimising our new ATS system, including reliable management information;
- To act as a sparring partner on all recruitment-related issues.
As the implementation phase of our major projects approaches (such as a festival, exhibition or trade fair), you will have more vacancies or temporary roles in those countries at that time; on average, you will be handling 10 vacancies. You are able to align your priorities and planning effectively with this. We challenge you to think outside the box and come up with new initiatives to make this a success. We’ll give you the scope and freedom to excel in this role and develop yourself. You don’t have to do it all on your own – we’re a team!
