Talent acquisition partner for R&D

Powering the world sustainably starts with the right people – and that begins with you! We’re looking for a Talent Acquisition expert with strong technical affinity to drive and shape our R&D hiring strategy across EMEA, with a particular focus on the German‑speaking market. This is not a role for someone who relies on a “post and pray” approach. It’s for someone who thrives on building deep networks, enjoys finding talent others struggle to reach, and takes pride in creating sustainable talent pipelines; not just for today’s demand, but for what’s coming next.

• Lead end-to-end recruitment for R&D profiles and other strategic engineering and operational positions.
• Act as a trusted talent partner to hiring teams, translating complex technical and business requirements into effective recruitment strategies.
• Drive proactive sourcing strategies and provide talent intelligence on market dynamics, competitor activity, skills availability, and emerging talent trends across the energy and industrial sectors.
• Partner with the business on workforce planning, anticipate future capability needs, and build sustainable talent pipelines for critical and recurring roles.
• Build strong partnerships with senior business leaders across the various business units, providing strategic guidance throughout the hiring process.
• Align talent acquisition strategies with business priorities, operational requirements, and customer project demands.
• Drive continuous improvement across recruitment processes, sourcing effectiveness, candidate experience, and stakeholder engagement.
• Represent Hitachi Energy at career fairs, technical events, and industry forums, strengthening our position as an employer of choice for technical talent.

• 5 - 7 years of experience in recruiting technical and engineering talent, ideally within energy, electrical engineering, industrial services, automation, or similarly complex environments.
• Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the ability to operate as a trusted partner to senior business leaders, engineering teams, and project organizations.
• Strong expertise in proactive sourcing and talent mapping for specialized and hard-to-fill technical roles.
• Ability to quickly understand complex technical profiles and business requirements and translate them into targeted recruitment and sourcing strategies.
• Experience operating effectively within an international, matrixed organization and across multiple stakeholder groups.
• Fluency in English.
• Passion for people, data-driven decision making, and using talent insights to support business growth and the energy transition.
• Будет плюсом: other languages would be a strong advantage
