Contract Technical Sourcer - AWS

Job description

DESCRIPTION

At Amazon.com, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. Cloud Computing is revolutionizing Information Technology. Since early 2006, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has provided companies of all sizes with an infrastructure web services platform in the cloud. With AWS customers can requisition compute power, storage, and other services–gaining access to a suite of elastic IT infrastructure services as their business demands them. Customers pay only for what they use, with no up-front expenses or long-term commitments, making AWS the most cost-effective, flexible way to deliver their applications to their customers and clients. Since 2006 AWS is the leader in the global IaaS cloud computing space and is continually growing.

Would you like to be a central part of an expanding recruiting team that is responsible for fueling the rapid growth of AWS across Australia & New Zealand? Are you a builder? Do you thrive in high growth ambiguous environments? Are you a process oriented data driven recruiting professional who loves to dive deep to fix complex operational challenges allowing for greater scalability and impact?

The Amazon Web Services (AWS) Recruiting team is seeking a talented, customer-focused Technical Sourcer to join our global recruiting organization supporting AWS. The focus of the role is on driving candidate generation strategies in partnership with your clients. In this role, you will have the opportunity to partner across teams and execute sourcing campaigns to attract the best Cloud Support Engineering talent the industry has to offer.

Whilst our hiring bar is one of the most challenging to overcome; the results make it worthwhile as you will work with some of the most impressive individuals in their field. Candidate quality is all that matters and we are willing to go to any length to engage industry experts. Our Talent Acquisition team thrives in an innovative, fast-paced environment, can roll up their sleeves, work hard, have fun, pioneer, and get the job done. You will have the opportunity to draw on your extensive knowledge of talent acquisition and technology recruiting and forge dynamic relationships with business leaders, hiring managers and HR business partners.

· Ability to apply your advanced sourcing skills to identify talent others cannot.
· Participate in sourcing projects/recruiting initiatives including, but not limited to, meet-ups; tech events; conferences, and hackathons.
