JOB DETAILS:
Talent Acquisition Manager

This Talent Acquisition role will be a part of the global People team and will support team-wide efforts as appropriate to bring culturally-aligned people into roles designed to tap into their superpowers, help them to continually grow and develop, and bring them together in a vibrant, values-driven culture.
While we’re open to hiring this role at a variety of levels, we’re looking for someone with significant related professional experience and strong professional networks. The Talent Acquisition manager will focus on the following areas:
Sourcing candidates: You’ll do all the sleuthing you’d expect a recruiter might do, as well as constantly searching for new networks that might be full of incredible candidates who have never heard of us. Your calendar will be full of screening interviews, “get to know you” calls, and follow-ups, building a candidate pipeline for Namati now and into the future.
Managing hiring processes: You’ll manage all of the processes of hiring at Namati, from developing job descriptions to onboarding. You’ll conduct interviews, plan hiring timelines for new roles, develop candidate evaluation resources, set up all of the systems we use for hiring, and coordinate onboarding (and help us continue to strengthen our systems and capacity in these areas). You’ll work with hiring managers and the rest of the People Operations team to drive hiring processes forward, and you’ll own the candidate experience at Namati, ensuring that candidates are treated respectfully and communicated with in a timely manner.

Here’s what you might have tackled last week -
• Scheduled, planned, and conducted a call with the Kenyan citizenship team to help them develop a role they plan to hire for.
• Held a check-in with a hiring manager to share updates on a recruitment process; after discussing eligible candidates, quickly reacted to make adjustments to the job description and recruitment strategy.
• Finalized a new evaluation template for hiring managers to review written exercises.
• Had coffee with a senior-level candidate who might be a great match for our growing US Environmental Justice program when she’s available next year.
• Had a long call with our Network manager, learning about how to navigate our Legal Empowerment Network platform and strategizing about how to find promising candidates who are already very engaged in our issues.
• Did phone screen interviews with about 18,000 candidates (you might be exaggerating that number, but that’s how it felt).
• Finalized job descriptions for 2 upcoming roles, providing both content and light copy-editing on the documents to prepare for posting.
• Spent some time cruising around Twitter, exploring a rabbit-hole of environmental justice networks around the world.

About You
• Excellent communication and matchmaking skills: You love to connect with people and understand how their perspectives and unique qualities could be elevated. You’re great at articulating mission, achievements, and culture in a way that helps people understand how they could thrive with us. You enjoy people - working with them, learning from them - and you’re typically energized by a good conversation.
• Nimble, creative, skilled project manager: You’re extremely thorough and will follow through on complicated, multi-step processes. While careful planning and execution define your work, you are positive and graceful when unexpected challenges arise. You quickly reorient and identify the best new course of action. You are able to multitask using sound judgment while remaining detail-oriented.
• Collaborative and service-oriented: You greet everyone you encounter with a collaborative spirit, kindness, and empathy. You are known as a team-player who brings an “all hands on deck” mindset to all projects -- you’re happy to contribute however you can to advance Namati’s mission. You manage collaborative processes confidently and efficiently: you know how to incorporate input from a variety of stakeholders.
• Growth oriented: You’re always seeking to better yourself and your work, and you will push yourself to the peak of performance to help fulfill our mission. In service of that growth, you welcome and delight in feedback from supervisors, peers, and anyone else.
• Maturity and discernment: You have several years of experience - perhaps at several workplaces - and have seen a lot of people thrive (and not) in a variety of ways. You trust your instincts, but also understand your biases, and have an expansive and inclusive idea of what it means to “belong” at an organization.
