ABOUT THE ROLE

The People & Culture Talent Partner is the engine behind our ability to find, attract, and hire great people. This role owns the full recruitment lifecycle — from the moment a requisition opens to the day a new hire walks through the door — and is the person our hiring managers count on to bring both urgency and strategy to every search. This is not a reactive, post-and-pray role. The ideal candidate will not " just source talent; they build dynamic talent ecosystems that foster internal mobility, agile workforce planning, and proactive hiring strategies." Our Talent Acquisition Partner is the architect of that ecosystem — keeping pipelines warm, candidates engaged, and our ATS working hard for us every day. This position is located in our office in Champaign, IL
