Zinnov
Job Description
About Zinnov
Zinnov is a global management consulting firm that helps organizations make decisions that actually get used — and deliver results that matter. For over two decades, we’ve partnered with leading enterprises, high-growth technology companies, and investors to answer some of the toughest questions they face:
-
Where should we invest?
-
How do we scale globally?
-
What capabilities will win in the next decade?
Our work shapes market entry strategies, global operating models, M&A decisions, and long-term growth bets. We’re known for being data-led, execution-focused, and outcome-driven — not opinion-heavy slideware.
At Zinnov, how you work matters as much as what you deliver. We value independent thinking, crisp communication, and early ownership. With 450+ professionals across 10 global offices, we work across industries including Digital Services, ER&D, Enterprise Software, Semiconductors, Healthcare, BFSI, Automotive, Media & Telecom, and Private Equity.
Zinnov isn’t for everyone. It’s for people who want steep learning curves, honest feedback, and the chance to see their work influence real business decisions — not just presentations.
Why Globalisation Excellence (GE)
Zinnov’s Globalisation Excellence (GE) practice helps enterprises build and scale Global Capability Centers (GCCs) end-to-end — from Design & Discovery to Build, Scale, and Run.
In GE, you don’t work in silos. You:
- Own complex, end-to-end client journeys
- Work across GCC advisory, managed services, and BOT / outsourcing models
- Influence leadership decisions that shape long-term talent and operating strategies
This is where strategy meets execution — and where talent plays a defining role.
About the Role
As a Senior Technical Recruiter at Zinnov, you will lead complex, high-impact hiring mandates across product engineering and leadership roles. This is a role for recruiters who thrive on solving hard problems — niche skills, competitive markets, tight timelines — and who bring a solutioning mindset rather than a transactional approach.
You will operate as a trusted partner to hiring managers, internal project teams, and client stakeholders, owning hiring outcomes end-to-end. Beyond execution excellence, this role demands strong market understanding, proactive sourcing beyond job portals, and the ability to influence decisions through data, context, and credibility.
What You’ll Do
Niche & Leadership Hiring Ownership
- Own end-to-end hiring for niche, hard-to-fill, and leadership mandates with clear accountability for outcomes
- Build customized sourcing and execution strategies for complex requirements rather than relying on standard playbooks
- Drive predictable closures across senior individual contributor and leadership roles
Advanced Sourcing & Pipeline Building
- Source through a mix of job boards, referrals, vendors, and deep direct sourcing
- Build proactive pipelines beyond portals using platforms like LinkedIn, GitHub, Stack Overflow, and relevant talent communities
- Maintain strong pipeline hygiene with clear funnel visibility and engagement throughout the hiring lifecycle
Candidate Assessment & Role Selling
- Develop a deep understanding of job specifications — both technical depth and business context
- Translate role nuances into compelling, consultative candidate conversations
