The Director teams up with the hiring manager to determine and manage hiring demand to execute the recruiting and sourcing strategy (and plan) agreed upon and delivering results. The role will work on multiple projects (searches and initiatives) concurrently. To be successful, the Director executes with a sense of urgency, responding promptly to candidates and internal stakeholders (in different time zones) in time-sensitive situations. Being flexible to work outside standard business hours, including evenings and weekends (as needed and happens regularly) is key.
The Director will work across the firm working closely with Ryan People Group and other Ryan Departments involved in on-boarding and training. Thriving at Ryan means embracing and living Ryan’s values of Pursue Excellence, Wired to Win, Generosity Matters, Build Trust and Integrity Always and will embody and demonstrate accountability.
