Talent Acquisition Partner (Irish Sea)

All aboard! Can you help us set sail towards a new future, recruiting the right talent?

As a Talent Acquisition Partner at Stena Line you will ensure we attract and recruit the right talent for the future. You will be involved in employer branding activities and Talent Acquisition projects. Therefore, we are looking for someone who appreciates that no two days are ever the same! You will ensure the best possible candidate experience experience throughout the attraction and recruitment process. By delivering a high quality client & candidate focussed recruitment experience, you will support the business to deliver on their goals.

Some of your key responsibilities:

• Deliver the full life-cycle of recruitment campaigns and activities for internal client groups, including taking a brief from hiring managers, advertising, sourcing potential candidates, managing CV response, screening candidates, participating in interviews and making offers of employment.
• Utilise our applicant tracking system to post positions, manage candidates, develop reports, and maintain all recruitment data
• Continuously develop and improve regional recruitment process and digital solutions
• Safeguard Stena Line’s Employer Brand in all recruitment processes

What you will experience

Stena Line exists to be a trusted link between people, places and societies. We play a vital role in keeping everything connected. We make sure people and goods arrive where they need to be, enabling business to thrive and societies to grow. We connect family and friends, and make it possible to explore new destinations or revisit favourite places.

Stena Line wants to continue to be a safe, flexible and attractive employer and have now introduced a flexible workplace for our office employees. We believe a hybrid solution between the office and working remote will create the best environment for us to be creative, productive and find a work-life balance creating magic today and tomorrow. 

You will be part of the Irish Sea People team who work closely with the business to handle all people matters for our employees within the region which includes 9 Ports and 11 vessels throughout the Irish Sea. We are a team who work closely together and share the responsibility for providing a great candidate and employee experience. 

You will be required to regularly visit all our locations and ships across the Irish Sea region.

Who are you?

At Stena Line your personality matters as much as how good you are at what you do. You are someone with a can-do mind-set and a lot of drive and energy for pushing forward improvements and change. You will always be welcoming, caring and reliable.

Being flexible and able to prioritise is key, always staying on top of things! You are a proud company ambassador. Crucially, you will be a real team player with excellent communication skills, who can build and maintain good relationships with internal and external stakeholders alike.

• Extensive recruitment experience preferred with a track record of success in a high volume, fast paced environment; prior experience working in a maritime/shipping industry would be desirable but not essential
