- Collaborate with solution design teams to develop client-specific RPO solutions.
- Translate client needs into commercially attractive and operationally viable solutions.
- Contribute to RPO market positioning, value proposition and thought leadership.
- Share best practices and support country sales teams during RPO pursuits.
What we are looking for:

- Experience in designing, selling or delivering RPO solutions in a multinational environment.
- Strong understanding of recruitment operations, delivery models and talent acquisition technologies.
- Consultative selling, negotiation and executive-level presentation skills.
- Ability to influence across countries, functions and seniority levels.
