Talent Acquisition Specialist - Construction, Engineering & Estimating

About the Role

Staff X is an Australian offshoring company placing top talent with clients across Australia, NZ the UK, and the US. We're growing our Talent Acquisition team and looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist to join our Construction, Engineering & Estimating vertical.

This is a fully remote, permanent role based in the Philippines. You'll work with an advanced AI-powered ATS, and have the opportunity to build genuine long-term partnerships in one of our most in-demand verticals.

A background in Construction, Engineering, or Estimating recruitment is a strong advantage - but we're equally keen to speak with experienced consultants from other sectors who have delivered results in permanent or long-term contract environments. If your experience is primarily in short-term casual or temporary placements, this role is unlikely to be the right fit.

What You'll Be Doing

• Managing end-to-end recruitment: sourcing through to offer management
• Proactively headhunting
• Building and maintaining a consistent talent pipeline for Construction, Engineering, and Estimating roles
• Facilitating client role briefs & interviews, capturing real-time feedback, and managing the full client-side process
• Managing offers, negotiations, and reference checks through to a smooth handover
• Maintaining accurate ATS records and contributing to team-wide TA initiatives

What We're Looking For

• Minimum 5 years' experience as a Talent Acquisition Consultant in permanent or long-term contract recruitment
• Experience working with AU,NZ UK, or US clients
• Proven track record of successful end-to-end placements
• Construction, Engineering, or Estimating recruitment experience highly regarded
• Advanced sourcing and Networking skills
• Strong client communication and stakeholder management with the ability to influence
• Self-starter with genuine initiative - you identify problems and solve them without being asked
• Tech-savvy and excited by AI tools and automation in recruitment
• High personal accountability - you own your desk and your outcomes

The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here

We're direct about what we value. The people who do well at Staff X are honest, accountable, and results-driven. They take ownership of their work, enjoy being part of a collaborative team, and bring energy and professionalism every day.

They don't need to be told what to do next. They see a gap and fill it. They take pride in placing the right candidate - not just the fastest one.

If you're looking for somewhere to coast, this isn't it. If you're looking for a place to build something genuinely meaningful, we'd love to meet you.

What's On Offer

• Competitive base salary commensurate with experience
• Uncapped commission
• 20 days paid annual leave
• Benefits package including wellbeing programs
• Advanced tech stack
• Certified Great Place to Work - Philippines, multiple consecutive years
