In this role, you will serve as a strategic talent acquisition partner supporting Aircraft Integration, Engineering and Adaptation teams, with a particular focus on highly specialized technical and operational roles. You will partner closely with business leaders and hiring managers across the AERO Group (Aerospace Engineering) and adjacent aviation functions, leading high-touch searches.
This role is well suited to a recruiter with a strong market intelligence mindset - someone who can lead complex searches across specialist talent markets while bringing insight and clarity to hiring leaders and the broader People team. Beyond delivery, you will help elevate the organization's capability in talent markets where we are still building depth, using market mapping, external insight, and repeatable hiring approaches to improve how we hire over time.
Success in this role requires someone who thrives in process creation, exercises strong judgement, and has a track record of delivering complex searches in high-expectation, highly specialized stakeholder environments.

- Build and execute market-informed sourcing strategies across specialist talent pools including aircraft supply chain, FAA 21 and 145 environments, avionics, integration engineering, maintenance, and production.
- Develop deep understanding of external talent markets and use data and insight to guide hiring leaders on talent availability, market constraints, and competitive dynamics.
- Partner closely with senior and highly specialized stakeholders, bringing clear recommendations, thoughtful challenge, and sound judgment throughout the hiring process.
