Talent Specialist

Listed 23 days ago

Kin was created to provide a fresh and more modern approach to recruitment. We’re passionate about helping New Zealand businesses build amazing teams in a way that is expert, transparent, and thoroughly human. 
 
We are lucky enough to partner with some of the best businesses in New Zealand, including fast growth small and medium businesses, as well as larger organisations and not for profits. Clients and candidates love our high touch approach, our transparency, and our innovative approach to pricing.  
 
We’re looking for a talented and purpose led recruitment specialist to join our Wellington team in our beautiful CBD location.  
 
The opportunity 
As a Talent Specialist you’ll provide expert sourcing and selection advice to a wide range of clients, across a broad variety of roles. You’ll be valued for your recruitment insights, and your ability to bring a commercial lens to every engagement. While your role will be client facing, sales and commission are not part of our culture.

  • be credible and comfortable building relationships at all levels within our client base and with candidates

  • have a thirst for on-going learning and development 
  • bring energy, commitment, and courage to everything you do. 
Who we’re looking for: 
You will have real depth of experience as an end-to-end recruiter including search and be known for your ability to build enduring, high trust relationships. You may have a background in an agency environment, or as an internal recruiter; Kin is kind of a blend of the two. 
 
To thrive in this role, you will need: 
  • 5+ years’ experience delivering end-to-end recruitment solutions across a variety of roles 
  • an approach that places as much importance on the candidate experience as the client experience 
  • to be collaborative; when a client works with one or us, they work with all of us! 
  • experience working in a high-pace environment  
  • exceptional communication skills on all fronts 
  • strong commercial acumen and an eye for detail 
  • to be team and service oriented  
  • experience working with cloud-based tools 
Why you’ll love being part of Kin 
There are plenty of reasons you’ll love being part of our team, here are a couple: 
  • We offer meaningful work with values aligned clients 
  • We have a high trust, and flexible work environment 
  • Our model is not commission based, no sales targets, or nonsense KPI’s 
  • We offer a range of benefits to support your wellbeing year round 
  • Our office is centrally located, modern fresh and well provisioned 
  • We’re BCorp certified (and it means the world to us!) 
  • We love to support one another and have fun, and we celebrate success not only with our clients but within our own business and team as well.
