Are you ready to build a Talent Acquisition function from the ground up? Visier is searching for a Head of Talent Acquisition to elevate how we attract the right talent to join us. This is a high-impact functional leadership role for an experienced TA professional ready to own and refine the engine that connects fantastic talent with our brand and culture. You will be instrumental in evolving Visier's identity in the market, building sustainable talent pipelines, and ensuring our TA operations lead to repeatable outcomes.

This is a chance to take full accountability for setting the strategy and delivering the results for the TA function. You will be managing a distributed function with a small internal team and leveraging contract resources. If you are passionate about crafting an authentic employer brand, using data to inform high-impact strategies, and want to create a best in class TA function, you'll be proud of the impact you can have with us.

We need a strategic player-coach—a leader who is willing to roll up their sleeves and execute. You will be joining a culture that values continuous learning and growth, and we are looking for a leader who thrives on solving meaningful challenges.

We are open to candidates based remotely across Canada, or US pacific timezone.

What you'll be doing...

You will be responsible for setting the vision and managing all operational aspects of the function, with a focus on four core strategic pillars:

• Establish and execute the overarching talent acquisition strategy, translating Visier's business objectives into clear, measurable hiring goals and scalable workforce plans.
• Reimagine and rebuild our TA function with a variety of hiring strategies, team resourcing (internal recruiters to contract / agency support) and contribute to building a culture of high performance in our P&C function.
• Manage resource allocation, and workflow to ensure hiring goals are met efficiently and effectively, relying on TA metrics to inform your decisions in building the function.

2. Employer Brand Development

• Define, champion, and amplify our Employee Value Proposition (EVP) and employer brand across relevant channels. Develop and implement engaging marketing campaigns and content strategies to promote Visier as an employer of choice in key competitive talent markets.
• Ensure the employer brand authentically reflects our culture of learning, high performance, and team-focused delivery.
• Partner closely with the Marketing and Communications teams to ensure brand consistency and maximum market impact.

3. Talent Pipeline Creation and Nurture

• Design and operationalize proactive, long-term talent pipeline strategies, focusing on critical, hard-to-find skill sets. Identify other opportunities to connect with talent beyond the usual expected channels.
• Utilize advanced market intelligence and recruiting data to anticipate emerging talent needs and build sustainable talent communities for developing talent (including our fantastic campus program).
• Oversee the effective use of a Talent Relationship Management (TRM) approach to cultivate meaningful, long-term connections with passive and silver-medalist candidates.

4. TA Operations & Process Excellence

• Own and optimize the end-to-end recruitment process, technology stack (ATS, tools, vendor relationships), and operational workflows to maximize efficiency and data integrity.
• Establish and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) to provide leaders with transparent, data-driven insights into TA performance, quality of hire, and strategic opportunities.
• Ensure all hiring practices are equitable, inclusive, and compliant with all relevant labour laws and internal policies across all operating regions.

What you'll bring to the table...

We are looking for a hands-on leader who can think strategically and operate tactically to deliver results.

• 5+ years of progressive leadership experience in Talent Acquisition, ideally with experience leading an entire TA function through significant change or scaling.
• A proven track record of impact; demonstrated success navigating and improving fast-paced, outcome focused TA environments where speed and quality both need to be achieved. While AI and SaaS experience will help you succeed at Visier, it isn't a requirement if you have a strong, visible learner's mindset and a passion for our space.
• Demonstrated experience translating high-level business goals into actionable, data-informed TA strategies and work plans.
• Expert-level knowledge of full-cycle recruiting, modern sourcing techniques, and innovative employer branding practices.
• Proven ability to manage complexity, drive key talent decisions with senior stakeholders, and resolve significant operational challenges using superior judgment.
• Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to influence senior management and executive leaders. The ideal candidate operates with humility, prioritizes team success over personal credit, and actively seeks feedback to drive function-wide improvement.
• You roll up your sleeves
• You make it easy
• You are proud
• You never stop learning
• You play to win
