Job description / Role
Recruitment Manager - Kuwait
From strategic guidance to supporting the day-to-day needs of managers and employees, the Human Resources Division drives best practice across the Alshaya business. HR is segmented across generalist and specialist functions including HR services, recruitment and talent management. These are just some of the teams that support over 110 nationalities working across multiple brands and geographies. Our continued growth and expansion can only be achieved by recruiting, training and nurturing the best global talent. That's what we do.
Alshaya's Kuwait-based Recruitment Division is split in to three teams - Food, Retail and Head Office Functions - and handles recruitment for roles across the entire Middle East. We are looking for someone with fashion or retail experience to work on the retail desk as a Recruitment Manager. You will be exposed to bulk recruitment for new store openings and attrition-related vacancies, as well as more niche recruitment for senior level roles. This is fast-paced and challenging work and as such calls for an experienced, dynamic recruitment specialist.
Requirements
* 5 - 7 years recruitment experience, gained in either an agency or in-house setting
* Experience leading and developing a team of recruiters
* Comprehensive knowledge of recruitment best practice, allowing you to create, implement and manage recruitment programs
* Excellent communication skills with strong stakeholder management capability, and the ability to challenge and influence decisions.
As this role is for our retail team, which handles recruitment for brands like Mothercare, Evans and H&M, fashion experience is a definite advantage.
