Talent Acquisition Specialist

The role

Own hiring end to end for Dezy, and support the wider employee lifecycle alongside it. ~70% Talent Acquisition • ~30% HR Operations & Employee Engagement

Talent Acquisition (~70%)

• Own end-to-end recruitment across clinical (General Dentists, Implantologists, Orthodontists, Endodontists, Prosthodontists, Oral Surgeons), clinic support (Dental Assistants, Front Office, Clinic Coordinators) and corporate roles (Sales, Growth, Operations, Marketing, Finance, Supply Chain).
• Run the full cycle intake with the hiring manager, sourcing, screening, scheduling, feedback, salary negotiation, offer and closure.
• Build pipelines ahead of new clinic launches, so hiring stays proactive rather than reactive.
• Source across job portals, dental colleges and associations, referrals, social platforms and consultants.
• Drive bulk hiring drives for clinic launches and assistant-level roles.
• Negotiate compensation confidently and close candidates within budget bands.
• Stay engaged from offer to joining to minimise drop-offs.
• Maintain hiring trackers and MIS, and publish weekly status to stakeholders.
• Deliver against time to hire — this is the headline metric for the role, alongside offer-to-join ratio and quality of hire.

HR Operations & Employee Engagement (~30%)

• Manage the employee lifecycle: onboarding and documentation, induction, confirmation, attendance and leave, HRMS hygiene, and exit formalities.
• Ensure new joiners across clinics and corporate are set up before day one.
• Provide accurate, on-time attendance and payroll inputs — LOP, working days, joiner and leaver data.
• Run exits cleanly: resignation processing, clearance, asset recovery coordination and exit interviews.
• Drive engagement through clinic connects, recognition, celebrations and feedback initiatives.
• Be the first point of contact for employee queries.
