This is a high-impact leadership role responsible for scaling one of Agoda's most critical engineering hiring functions - balancing speed, quality, and long-term talent strategy for the Tech organization. In this role, you will lead a team of TA Partners and Associate TA Partners while collaborating closely with key stakeholders, including Tech Department Leadership and Management, HR Business Partners, and Talent Analytics teams. You will focus on two core areas: driving your team to consistently achieve high-volume, high-quality hiring targets, and leading initiatives that continuously improve the recruitment function.
In this Role, you'll get to:




Lead the team to hire to target and remain fully staffed by optimizing sourcing strategy, recruitment funnel, and team structure

Ensure operational excellence across every stage of the recruitment process (position intake, JDs, pre-screening, interview scorecards, offer communication, etc.)
Leverage recruitment data and reporting to partner effectively with your team and the broader business, including Tech Leadership
Reduce cost per hire while maintaining quality standards
Ensure Hiring Managers supported by your team develop strong interviewing skills
Develop strategies to build talent pipelines, adapting the bar appropriately to evolving hiring needs
Manage, coach, and grow a team of strong recruiters, enabling them to hire game-changers for Agoda
Act as a hands-on leader - comfortable diving into the details of sourcing, screening, or data when needed, not just managing from a distance
Explore and adopt AI-powered tools to improve recruiter productivity, candidate experience, and overall delivery
Lead projects that transform the recruitment function, such as:
Defining operational excellence standards for the recruitment process
Introducing new assessment tools
Building upskilling programs for recruiters
Experimenting with recent recruitment models and approaches

Leadership skills to rally recruiters around ambitious targets
A strategic mindset with a strong focus on measurable impact, paired with a hands-on approach to execution
Continuous improvement mindset with high ownership — proactively identifying inefficiencies rather than reactively
