Team Manager Talent Attraction Team (0.8 - 1.0 fte)

What will you be doing?
With extensive experience in both operational and strategic recruitment, your main focus is to create opportunities and drive innovation to grow the success of our Talent Acquisition Team. In a natural way you will foster and grow the recruitment function and its position in the overall HR strategy.
As a manager you'll lead a small, connected team that consists of Senior Recruiters and a Recruitment/HR Project Lead. There is a strong, integrated collaboration with Labor Market Communications and HR Services.

Additionally, this position includes the role of 'topic lead recruitment'. You'll take the lead in defining the strategic agenda of the recruitment function within the TU/e landscape, in close cooperation with our HRM Policy team. 

You like to be the face of the talent attraction team within the TU/e and you represent the team in an attractive and convincing way.
