As our Senior Talent Operations Specialist at Airalo, you will own the systems, data, and processes that help recruiters and hiring managers hire efficiently. You will turn complex workflows into scalable processes, make sure our hiring data is reliable, and give leaders the insights they need to plan headcount with confidence.

You are someone who sees a manual step and wants to automate it, sees a messy dataset and wants to fix it at the source, and sees a new tool and asks how we can best equip it. You are equally at ease configuring an ATS, running a training session for interviewers, and presenting funnel insights to business leaders.

You will work in close coordination with our Talent Acquisition team, People team, Finance, Legal, and IT, as the processes and systems you build need to work for every region we hire in.

Build dashboards and reports on funnel conversion, time to hire, source effectiveness, and pipeline health, and keep ATS data reliable
Translate data into recommendations for Talent and business leaders, including support on headcount planning
Maintain guides, templates, and training so recruiters and hiring managers can self-serve, and lead change management for new tools and processes
Mentor more junior team members and make sure every candidate gets a smooth, respectful process
Support recruitment as needed, particularly during peak hiring periods
