Requirements

• Screening resumes and matching candidates to roles across our childcare centres
• Conducting screening interviews via Teams
• Recommending shortlisted candidates to centre and senior management
• Coordinating face-to-face interviews onsite with management
• Managing pre-employment checks and closing out job vacancies once filled
• Being the main point of contact for candidates, keeping communication prompt, warm and professional
