About our Client:

Our client is part of the hospitality sector, specializing in affordable hostels and youth-centric accommodations across India. They are reshaping travel for Gen Z through a socially engaging, design-focused, and purpose-driven experience.

As we scale from a 250 to 1000+ strong team in under 2 years, building the right talent engine is mission-critical.

The Role:

• We're hiring a Head of TA to solve a uniquely hard and meaningful problem:
• Hiring hundreds of high-quality blue/grey collar team members at speed, while factoring for high attrition, regional spread, and rising quality benchmarks.
• This isn’t a plug-and-play sourcing role. This needs a first-principles builder who can rethink how India hires for hospitality.

What You’ll Do:

• Own end-to-end hiring for frontline roles: property managers, housekeepers, café crew, field ops
• Build alternate hiring engines: hotel schools, skill councils, NGOs, referrals, gig-to-full-time, rural channels
• Drive scale without compromising quality — build systems, not hacks
• Monitor and improve funnel metrics: TAT, source mix, cost/hire, offer-join ratio, post-join retention
• Partner closely with Ops, HRBP, and leadership to stay ahead of ground needs
• Lead a small, high-performance TA team with speed and ownership

What We’re Looking For :

• 6–10 years of TA experience in hospitality, QSR, retail, logistics, cloud kitchens, or other scale-heavy businesses
• Proven success in frontline / volume hiring
• Analytical, creative, and systems-first — you can see patterns and solve root problems
• Deep empathy for the workforce and a desire to build real impact
• Strong operational rigor and execution mindset
• Passionate about fixing India’s service hiring gap, not just filling roles

Why This Role Matters:

• We’re scaling fast. But not at the cost of people or culture.
• You’ll build the engine that powers our growth — helping thousands of young people build careers, not just jobs.
