CTC: 10–14 LPA

Work: On-site, 6 days a week

Notice: Immediate to 15 days preferred

About the role

Our client is hiring a TA Manager to own all trainer hiring for its Trainers POD: NIAT instructors, tech trainers and English/communication trainers.

This is a high-volume, rapid-closing role. You will hire about 150 trainers a month (up to 300 in peak months) from campus and off-campus, closing each opening within 3–5 days of it being assigned, including senior positions. A hire counts only when the trainer starts training and stays beyond 30 days.

You will lead a team of 8 (Pod Leads, Associates, a Campus Executive and an Onboarding Executive) and report to the Senior TA Manager.

What you will own

• Hire 100+ trainers every month: about 150 on average and up to 300 in a peak month

• Close every opening within 3–5 days of assignment, including senior and headhunted positions

• Deliver 700 NIAT instructor joiners by March 2027: 300 from campus and 400 off-campus

• Run campus hiring end to end: college and TPO tie-ups, campus drives, offers and joining

• Release offers within 1 working day of selection and keep offer-to-join drop-offs low

• Run a consistent assessment process: written test, face-to-face interview, demo video and degree check

• Make sure every joiner gets Day 7, 15 and 30 check-ins,



and start a replacement search the next working day after any exit

• Set monthly targets for your team on the 1st and review kept vs assigned every week

• Partner with the instructor team's leadership, and push back early on unrealistic asks

What we are looking for

• 5+ years in recruiting / talent acquisition

• Volume hiring of 100+ joiners a month, with numbers you personally owned

• Campus hiring experience: campus drives and TPO relationships

• A record of closing roles within 3–5 days, including senior positions

• Hiring experience across both B2B and B2C roles

• Has led a recruiting team against monthly targets

• Runs hiring on data: TAT, offer-to-join, kept vs assigned

• Based in Hyderabad or willing to relocate

Good to have

• Has hired trainers, faculty or instructors at volume

• In-house TA experience (starting out at an agency is fine)

• Uses AI or automation in recruiting today

• Experience at an edtech company or fast-growing startup

You will do well here if you

• Close fast and keep pushing until the seat is filled

• Treat your joining number as your own

• Negotiate offers within band and keep candidates warm through to Day 1

• Follow through after joining, not just at the offer stage
