Talent Acquisition Manager

Company Overview

ExeQut is a leader in consulting, delivering tailored solutions across enterprise applications, data & AI platforms, cloud solutions, and cybersecurity. We emphasize transparency, collaboration, and addressing core business challenges through a structured, agile development process. Partnering with clients from ideation to deployment, we ensure our solutions deliver long-term value and streamline the user experience.

As we expand our footprint in the Syrian market, we are looking for a driven and well-connected Talent Acquisition Manager to own and lead our end-to-end recruitment function in Syria — building pipelines, sourcing top talent, and supporting our growing operations across key industries.

Role Overview

The Talent Acquisition Manager will serve as ExeQut's primary hiring engine in Syria. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role responsible for managing the full recruitment lifecycle across a range of technical and non-technical positions. The ideal candidate brings deep knowledge of the Syrian job market, established professional networks across key sectors, and the ability to work independently to deliver quality hires in a fast-paced environment.

This role goes beyond sourcing and interviewing — the Talent Acquisition Manager will also support foundational HR processes including onboarding coordination and recruitment administration, ensuring a seamless experience from candidate outreach to day one.

Key Responsibilities

Talent Acquisition — End to End

• Own the full recruitment lifecycle: job briefing, sourcing, screening, interviewing, offer management, and closing
• Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, ideal candidate profiles, and selection criteria
• Develop and execute sourcing strategies across multiple channels including LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, professional networks, and direct outreach
• Build and maintain active talent pipelines for critical and recurring roles
• Conduct structured screening and competency-based interviews to assess candidate fit
• Manage candidate experience throughout the process, ensuring timely communication and a professional impression of ExeQut at every touchpoint
• Coordinate and schedule interviews between candidates and internal stakeholders
• Prepare and extend offer letters in alignment with approved compensation structures
• Track and report on recruitment metrics including time-to-fill, pipeline health, and source effectiveness

Market Intelligence & Networking

• Leverage existing relationships and actively build new connections across the Syrian professional landscape in target sectors
• Provide insight and guidance on local market conditions, salary benchmarks, talent availability, and hiring trends
• Represent ExeQut in the Syrian market with professionalism and discretion, building the company's employer brand presence

Onboarding & Recruitment Administration

• Coordinate pre-joining processes including document collection, background checks, and system setup requests
• Support the delivery of structured onboarding for new hires in coordination with the HR team
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date candidate and employee records across ATS and HRMS platforms
• Draft and manage HR letters, employment documentation, and recruitment-related communications
• Ensure all recruitment activity is compliant, documented, and audit-ready

Requirements

• Minimum 3 years of experience in Talent Acquisition, with a proven track record of end-to-end recruitment delivery
• Demonstrated experience hiring within at least two of the following sectors in Syria:
  • Telecommunications
  • Construction, Engineering, or Infrastructure
  • IT.
  • Financial Services or Banking
• Strong existing professional network within the Syrian market across relevant industries
• Deep understanding of the Syrian labor market, including sourcing channels, talent availability, salary norms, and candidate behavior
• Proven ability to manage multiple open roles simultaneously with minimal supervision
• Strong interviewing skills with experience applying structured or competency-based assessment methods
• Familiarity with ATS platforms and digital recruitment tools
• Basic working knowledge of HR functions including onboarding processes, employment documentation, and HR administration
• Excellent written and spoken Arabic; Good written and spoken English
• Strong organizational skills and high attention to detail
• Professional, discreet, and service-oriented in all candidate and stakeholder interactions

Nice to Have

• Exposure to HR and ATS systems.
• Familiarity with employer branding or recruitment marketing practices
• Experience in HR operations and administration.

What This Role Is Not

This role requires someone who is genuinely embedded in the Syrian professional market — not someone who has primarily hired for other markets or who holds surface-level familiarity with local networks. We are looking for a candidate who can pick up the phone and reach decision-makers, referrals, and passive candidates through real relationships — not just job postings.
