Senior Recruiter – Engineering & Technology

Canberra | Hybrid working

Love recruiting the people behind complex technology? This is an opportunity to embed with a growing Australian organisation and build talent pipelines across engineering, science and advanced technology.

We’re looking for a robust Senior Recruiter to join a newly established embedded recruitment team supporting a highly specialised, engineering-led business.

You’ll manage recruitment end-to-end, but this role goes beyond filling vacancies. You’ll work closely with hiring leaders to understand future capability needs, map specialist talent markets and proactively build pipelines ahead of demand.

The role
Recruit complex engineering, scientific, manufacturing and technical talent
Partner directly with hiring managers on recruitment strategy
Proactively source and map hard-to-find candidates
Build talent pipelines for current and future requirements
Manage candidates through the full recruitment lifecycle
Use market intelligence, data and metrics to influence hiring outcomes




Deliver an outstanding candidate and stakeholder experience

About you

You’ll be an experienced Recruiter who is comfortable operating in a complex technical environment. You could come from engineering, defence, aerospace, advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals or another specialist sector.

You’ll need to be proactive, resilient and curious, with strong sourcing skills and enough confidence to challenge and advise stakeholders.

Most importantly, you'll enjoy finding people who aren't always easy to find.

Why this role?

You'll be joining at the beginning of a current recruitment partnership, supporting an organisation experiencing significant growth and helping build the specialist talent pipelines it will need for the future.

If you're naturally curious about technology, engineering and innovation, enjoy getting under the skin of complex roles, and like the idea of recruiting talent that can be genuinely difficult to find, this is a great prospect to make your mark.
