About

Driving global Talent Acquisition strategy across EMEA, APAC, and beyond, I lead end-to-end hiring initiatives that enable scalable growth across diverse markets and industries. Partnering closely with regional HR leaders and business heads, I localize global programs to ensure relevance and impact at a country level. I advise senior leadership on talent strategy, market insights, and employer branding, strengthening our ability to attract and retain top talent in competitive landscapes. My focus is on building future-ready organizations—designing and optimizing TA programs, processes, and policies that align with long-term workforce planning and business goals. Passionate about inclusive, people-centric hiring, I champion equitable practices and collaborate with D&I teams to diversify talent pipelines globally. As a trusted partner at the leadership table, I influence key decisions, ensuring talent strategy is deeply connected to commercial success while supporting high-quality, forward-thinking hiring outcomes.
