**Ziina** · Dubai

## About the role

We're looking for a Talent Specialist to join our team at Ziina. This is a hands-on, full-cycle recruiting role: you'll own your pipelines from first outreach to accepted offer, working with teams across the business. You'll run outbound-first searches in competitive markets, with AI tooling built into every step of the process. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a growing startup environment, brings strong talent acquisition and operational excellence, and is energized by contributing to a modern, forward-thinking talent function.

#### As a Talent Specialist at Ziina you will:

- Run end-to-end recruiting for assigned roles, from intake to accepted offer, with a consistent, high-quality process across every team you hire for

- Deliver a candidate experience we're proud of at every stage

- Partner with hiring managers to understand what their team actually needs and turn it into a clear, realistic role profile

- Help hiring managers and interviewers evaluate well: clear scorecards, useful feedback, calibrated decisions

- Contribute to recommendations for senior leadership and cross-functional stakeholders

- Track your pipeline metrics, notice what is not working, and improve your own hiring outcomes based on data

- Keep recruiting systems accurate and up to date (ATS, automations, workflows), and when you see something not working in our recruiting setup, even outside your own roles, propose a solution

- Manage job boards, agencies, and other external recruitment partners day to day, and track whether they deliver value

- Look beyond your own roles: bring ideas on employer brand, candidate experience, and how we hire as a company, even where you don't own the outcome

#### To succeed in this role, you likely:

- Have 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including experience in a startup environment

- Are a strong sourcer, comfortable when outbound is the main channel

- Are comfortable using data and analytics tools to drive insights and decisions

- Understand various TA systems and have supported process optimization, including ATS management and recruitment automation tools

- Have experience collaborating with cross-functional teams, including engineering, product, and operations, to align recruitment strategy with business priorities

- Operate with a detail-oriented mindset and can manage competing priorities in a fast-moving, cross-functional environment

- Have significantly contributed to a Talent Acquisition function from the ground up, establishing processes, playbooks, and scalable systems

#### What would amaze us

- You've closed senior or niche roles through outbound sourcing, in markets where inbound doesn't work

- AI tools are already part of your daily sourcing and screening work, and you know where the human judgment stays

- You've built a dashboard, report, or process improvement that your team actually adopted and still uses

- Ownership is your default: when something blocks your work, you fix it or find the person who can, without waiting to be asked
