It's more than a job
As part of the HR team at Kuehne+Nagel, you will help build careers, nurture talent, and empower people to succeed. Your work doesn't stop at HR - it drives the entire supply chain forward. By attracting and developing the right people, you ensure that our operations run smoothly, so medical equipment reaches hospitals on time, toys arrive in stores for the holidays, and fresh flowers make it to local florists. Every great logistics solution starts with great people - and that's where you come in.
You will be the driving force behind all talent acquisition activities, searching and engaging with the best people to join our business. As the talent acquisition expert, you'll be the trusted partner to stakeholders, ensuring every interaction delivers an exceptional experience for both customers and candidates.
How you create impact
- Working hand‑in‑hand with your Team Leader, you'll tap into professional networks like LinkedIn, internal recruitment tools, referral programs, social media, and job boards to uncover the right talent for each role. From the very first search to the final handshake, you'll be at the heart of the process.
- Your journey will include proactive sourcing, screening applications, reviewing resumes, coordinating assessments, and launching reference and background checks. Every candidate interaction will be carefully tracked through our internal systems, ensuring transparency and consistency.
- But it doesn't stop there. You'll be constantly looking for ways to optimize our talent acquisition solutions, measuring success against key performance indicators and refining processes to make them sharper, faster, and more effective.
- You'll also be the gatekeeper of quality, screening and reviewing incoming applicants to ensure only the strongest profiles move forward. At the same time, you'll build and maintain talent pools for specific roles and locations, focusing on in‑demand skill sets so that we always have a pipeline ready when opportunities arise.
- In short, this role is about more than filling positions, it's about crafting a seamless journey for candidates, building trust with stakeholders, and shaping the future of our workforce.
