Jonathan Dawkins

I am a strategic senior talent acquisition executive with strong leadership skills and excellent global experience managing geographically dispersed talent acquisition teams around the world. I am a data driven analytical thinker using my strong planning abilities and excellent communication skills to develop the talent acquisition strategy and function in line with wider organisational objectives using regional knowledge and experience. I always take a holistic and multi-channel approach to talent acquisition so that the organization can meet its future talent needs. I ensure that the talent acquisition function works closely with business to plan what the future talent requirements will be as well as where and when that talent will be needed. I engage comfortably in a senior management and executive environment, working continuously to build these critical relationships. I am well practised in influencing key stakeholders in complex global matrix organisations to achieve strategic objectives and ensure business outcomes. I have successfully managed teams of varying sizes, always inspiring outstanding levels of performance across all levels within my team by both encouraging and rewarding creative thinking and effort. I have experience in developing the employer brand, taking into account local and regional cultural nuances, and l am responsible for obsessively driving an excellent candidate experience.
