The Talent Acquisition Manager must share Lilly’s passion to make an impact on the lives of candidates, teams, and ultimately patients.

The Talent Acquisition Manager will be based in Mexico City but will support the LATAM region including Brazil, Columbia, and Mexico. This is an exciting opportunity to be responsible for developing a LATAM hub recruiting strategy and work for the largest pharmaceutical company in the world.

Building strong partnerships with business leaders will enable a proactive approach to talent acquisition, focusing on attracting diverse top talent. The Talent Acquisition Manager is responsible for partnering with regional human resource colleagues, global TA (Therapeutic Area) leaders, as well as the Sr. Vice President of LATAM and Affiliate General Managers to understand business priorities, hiring volumes, and initiatives. The Talent Acquisition Manager will leverage these insights to develop and execute talent acquisition strategies for the LATAM region.

Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:

• Focus on business results - Rather than simply being satisfied with filling open jobs, the goal of the Talent Acquisition Manager is to improve business results directly and measurably by identifying the talent types and specific candidates to deliver the business strategy. The impact of this position is to lead our improved business results through people.
• Focus on future needs - The Talent Acquisition Manager will educate business leaders and hiring managers to assist them in bringing talent to Lilly that can meet both current and future talent needs. This means that more new hires will have “future skills,” a steeper career trajectory, and the ability to transition into new roles as capabilities change or grow. To understand future needs, this position partners with leaders and HR Strategic Business Partners in workforce planning - advising hiring managers on upcoming talent gaps and offering talent acquisition solutions.
• The Talent Acquisition Manager will partner with Corporate Affairs to build Lilly’s external brand as an employer of choice by highlighting the work that Lilly is doing as a medicines company along with the external recognition Lilly has received globally and within the LATAM region specifically.
• Maintaining a competitive advantage - This position has an external focus on fully understanding of the talent marketplace and conducting competitive analyses to ensure that Lilly’s talent attraction factors and employer brand are constantly superior to that of their talent competitors.
• This position must know where the most critical talent is located (college, company, industry, geography), and how to attract that talent (motivators, compensation, geography) - having innovative sourcing, pipelining, referral, networking, and brand reputation strategies.
• Lead, manage, and develop the talent acquisition team to develop future staffing leaders and achieve high performance on key metrics (e.g., time-to-fill, cost per hire, diverse candidate slates, candidate pipelines, and applicant tracking).
• Identify the most effective and relevant digital channels and innovative technology tools (Customer Relationship Management tactics) to realize our staffing and talent goals.
• Adapt & drive strategies for the improvement of candidate experience/engagement across the region.

Skills/Qualifications:

• Minimum of 5 of previous talent acquisition management experience required
• Bachelor's degree or higher in related area
• Strategic vision, resilience, negotiation, use of technology, working under pressure, and continuously seeking alternative solutions and approaches
• Successful history of engaging with leaders to understand and address business and talent acquisition needs and handling external relationships (i.e., vendors, agencies, branding partners).
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Fluency in English & Spanish required; Fluency in Portuguese preferred
• Desire to change the status quo
• Ability to seek out data, analyze it, and identify key actions from it
