Build. Attract. Hire - The People Behind Business Growth

We are looking for a highly driven Talent Acquisition Specialist who can identify, attract, and hire high-calibre professionals capable of driving business growth.

This role is designed for a recruitment professional who understands that hiring is not merely about filling vacancies but about identifying future leaders, revenue generators, business builders, and culture contributors who can create long-term value for the organization.

MD's Ask While evaluating candidates, please focus beyond recruitment volume or years of experience.

The Managing Director is specifically looking for a strategic recruiter and talent partner rather than a recruitment coordinator.

The ideal candidate should:

- Have proven experience hiring for Wealth Management, Capital Markets, Brokerage, PMS, Research, Investment Banking, and other Financial Services businesses.
- Demonstrate strong market mapping and direct sourcing capabilities rather than relying only on job portals.
- Be capable of identifying business builders, revenue generators, and leadership talent.
- Possess excellent networking skills across the financial services talent ecosystem.
- Be comfortable hiring niche and leadership positions through consultative recruitment.
- Have experience using LinkedIn Recruiter, AI-powered sourcing tools, and modern recruitment technologies.
- Understand employer branding and candidate experience as strategic differentiators.
- Demonstrate strong assessment capability to evaluate technical skills, commercial orientation, and cultural fit.
- Work closely with business leaders and act as a hiring partner rather than a recruitment executor.
- Possess high ownership, urgency, professionalism, and attention to detail.

Preference should be given to candidates from recruitment firms or in-house Talent Acquisition teams specializing in Financial Services, Wealth Management, Capital Markets, Broking, PMS, Investment Banking, Research, or FinTech hiring. Candidates with predominantly volume hiring or non-BFSI recruitment backgrounds without exposure to niche financial services hiring should be deprioritized.
