As part of our exceptional recruiting team, you're charged with finding the most interesting candidates who bring an entrepreneurial spirit and a sense of resourcefulness to all they do. You're responsible for guiding candidates through our hiring process and connecting them to the magic of working at Google. You are creative and driven, with an interpersonal savvy that allows you to develop lasting relationships with both candidates and hiring managers.

As part of the EMEA Recruiting Leadership Team (RLT), the Head of GBOFx Recruiting requires experienced people, client and operations managers to lead EMEA hiring across GCS, LCS, gTech and Functions.

In this role, you will be a strategic leader who understands how to balance high volume, fast paced commercial hiring with the niche breadth of Google’s Functions portfolio (Finance, Regulatory Affairs, legal etc) and an enthusiasm to attract and engage the talent contained within this highly complex space. As a trusted talent advisor, you will leverage your experience and domain expertise to manage executive stakeholder relationships at all levels. You will also be an established manager of managers, adept at leading a team to develop and implement recruiting strategies that align with business objectives.

Great just isn't good enough for our People Operations team (known elsewhere as "Human Resources").
