VP of Talent

Vice President Of Talent

Zipdev is on a mission to be a leader in nearshore staffing, connecting elite Latin American talent with ambitious North American companies.

We are looking for a vice president of talent to architect, build, and lead a highly effective, scalable, and defensible talent engine. This is not a traditional HR leadership role. This is a strategic, executive-level position responsible for the entire talent lifecycle, from the first sourcing message to creating an environment where our team members thrive, stay, and do the best work of their careers.

You will own our talent engine : talent acquisition (recruiting) and talent success (HR / people operations). You will be the single point of accountability for attracting, developing, and retaining the elite professionals who deliver value to our clients every day. Your success will be measured by the speed and quality of our placements and the lifetime value of our team members.

If you are a builder who sees talent as a core driver of enterprise value, we want to talk to you.

What You'll Own & Build (Responsibilities)

• Executive leadership & strategy : Serve as a key member of the executive leadership team, translating company vision into a cohesive talent strategy. Own the P&L and budget for the entire talent function.
• Architect a world-class talent engine : Design and lead the integrated functions of talent acquisition and talent success. Create a seamless, data-driven system that ensures a fluid and exceptional experience for every candidate and team member.
• Scale the talent acquisition machine : Oversee talent acquisition to build a recruiting function that can predictably and efficiently source, vet, and place hundreds of A-players per year, decreasing time-to-fill while increasing quality.
• Drive elite retention & performance : Oversee talent success to build programs that maximize team member engagement, development, and retention. Own the core metric of regrettable turnover and build the systems (onboarding, performance management, L&D) to keep it best-in-class.
• Data-driven operations : Champion a culture of radical accountability to metrics. Define, track, and report on the KPIs that mattertime-to-fill, cost-per-hire, submittal-to-hire ratio, regrettable turnover, and team member lifetime value (LTV).
• Build your team : Recruit, hire, and develop A-player leaders and individual contributors, empowering leaders to build their own high-performing teams.
