The Opportunity
OCU Group is a global infrastructure and energy services business with more than 5,000 people delivering projects that power communities and support the energy transition.
Our Australian and New Zealand operations are growing quick, bringing together great businesses including All Energy Contracting (AEC), Bam Bam, Pilecom and Volta under one group.
With 500 people locally, more than 200 active vacancies and plans to double our workforce, we’re recruiting at scale and building the talent acquisition capability to deliver that growth.
Working closely with the Head of Talent Acquisition and Mobilisation, you’ll deliver recruitment across our growing businesses while helping build the systems and processes needed to recruit at scale.
You’ll work as a true partner to each of these businesses, understanding their current and upcoming recruitment needs. You’ll be recruiting across engineering, project delivery, trade and labour, and specialist roles. Alongside immediate hiring needs, you’ll look ahead, building talent pipelines and helping leaders plan for upcoming projects and business growth.
What You’ll Do
- Own roles end to end, from brief through to offer, across professional, labour and specialist hiring.
- Build strong working relationships with hiring managers across Australia and New Zealand.
- Build talent pipelines for specialist and hard-to-fill roles.
- Make recruitment straightforward for hiring managers, with clear advice, regular updates and practical tools that help them make timely, informed decisions.
- Keep candidates informed and engaged through clear communication,
timely feedback and a positive experience from first contact through to onboarding.
- Help shape the systems, processes and ways of working that make hiring simpler, more consistent and ready for scale.
- Keep recruitment systems accurate and up to date, so hiring managers have clear visibility of progress and we can confidently track, report and plan as we grow.
What You’ll Bring
- Recruitment experience across renewables, energy, engineering, construction or related technical sectors.
- Strong sourcing capability and a track record of engaging talent in competitive markets.
- The judgement to prioritise competing demands while maintaining a strong candidate and hiring manager experience.
- A commitment to a positive candidate and hiring manager experience, with clear communication and consistent follow-through.
- Confidence using recruitment systems and data to maintain visibility, identify issues and improve delivery.
Why Join OCU Group
- Help build a Talent Acquisition function from the ground up, with real influence over how it looks in twelve months.
- Work at the pace of a business that’s doubling, with more than 200 roles open right now and growth showing no signs of slowing.
- Get a front-row seat as we bring newly acquired businesses into the group, recruiting for teams as they scale.
- Be part of a global Talent Acquisition team, swapping ideas and capability with peers across OCU Group worldwide.
- Shape the systems and processes the whole region will run on as we scale, and see your fingerprints on how OCU hires for years to come.
