Talent Acquisition Partner

Corporate Switzerland (12-Month Contract)

The Opportunity

On behalf of an international corporate client in Switzerland, we are looking for an experienced agency-side recruiter who is ready to step into a corporate Talent Acquisition role for a 12-month assignment. This role is ideal for recruiters coming from a headhunting or recruitment agency environment who enjoy ownership, stakeholder exposure and high-quality hiring processes — without giving up pace, autonomy and impact.

You will work closely with senior business leaders and HR stakeholders, managing end-to-end recruitment across multiple Swiss locations in a hybrid setup.

• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle for corporate and specialist roles in Switzerland — from intake and search strategy to offer stage
• Act as a trusted recruitment partner to hiring managers, translating business needs into effective search approaches
• Apply your agency mindset: proactive sourcing, market intelligence, creative search strategies and candidate engagement
• Ensure a smooth, professional candidate journey, including interview coordination and transparent communication
• Work with modern ATS systems, Linked In Recruiter and AI-supported tools
• Handle multiple roles in parallel while maintaining quality and stakeholder satisfaction
• Support local Talent Acquisition initiatives and ad-hoc recruiting projects

• Several years of experience in recruitment, headhunting or executive search, ideally within Life Sciences, Pharma, Biotech or another regulated industry
• Used to working in a fast-paced agency environment with high ownership and accountability
• Strong stakeholder management skills — confident, structured and credible at business level
• Consultative mindset with the ability to challenge, advise and influence
• Hands‑on, pragmatic and solution‑oriented
• Comfortable operating in an international, corporate environment
• Fluent in English AND German (mandatory)
• Solid systems affinity; experience with ATS tools, Linked In Recruiter and AI-based sourcing is a plus

• Contract:
  
  12 months (temporary assignment)
• Location:
  
  Hybrid, with regular on‑site presence in Basel and Zurich
• Working hours:
  
  Standard business hours; flexibility can be discussed

If you come from an agency recruitment background and are curious to experience the corporate side of Talent Acquisition — without fully leaving the operational recruiting world — this assignment offers an excellent opportunity.
