Senior Talent Partner, Operations

<div class="content-intro"><p>Ever imagined saying, “I helped launch the future of transportation”?</p>
<p>We’re rewriting the rules of urban mobility. At Vay, customers tap a button and a car arrives - with no one inside - powered by our world-first Remote Driving technology on real public streets.</p>
<p>We’re live in Las Vegas and scaling fast, powered by a strategic investment of up to $410 million from <a href="https://www.grab.com/sg/">Grab</a>. Our mission is simple: replace private car ownership with a faster, cleaner, door-to-door mobility model. If you want to build something real, visible, and genuinely transformative, you’ll feel right at home here.</p>

<h4><strong>What’s happening at Vay</strong></h4>
<ul>
<li>First to roll out vehicles in both Europe and the USA on public roads without a human being inside & currently the 2nd largest commercial, driverless car fleet in the Western World.</li>
<li>We've partnered with <a href="https://kodiak.ai/">Kodiak</a> to bring remote-driving technology to autonomous trucks in the US, showcasing our ability to integrate our system into heavy-duty commercial vehicles and expand the applications of our tech across the US.</li>
<li>We’ve completed 10’s of thousands of trips so far and are busy multiplying our Las Vegas fleet just to meet demand!</li>
<li><strong>...And soon we’ll be expanding across the US & Europe 🚀</strong></li>
</ul></div><p>We’re looking for a <strong>Senior Talent Partner, Operations</strong> to help build the teams behind that growth.</p>
<p>You’ll own fast-paced, high-volume hiring across some of our most critical Operations roles, including <strong>Remote Drivers, Safety Drivers, Field Support Agents, Remote Truck Drivers and more</strong>. Hiring demand moves quickly here, and your ability to build great pipelines and get the right people through the door will directly impact how fast Vay can scale.</p>
<p>We need more than someone who can run a recruitment process. We’re looking for a <strong>builder and a doer</strong>: someone who spots problems, works out what’s causing them and takes ownership of finding a solution. You’ll use AI and automation to work smarter, challenge processes that aren't working and continuously look for better ways to hire at scale.</p>

</ul>
<h3>Building Smarter Ways to Hire</h3>
<ul>
<li>Make <strong>AI and automation part of how you work every day</strong>, using technology to remove repetitive work and make yourself and the wider team more effective.</li>
<li>
<p>Continuously improve how we source, screen, assess, schedule and hire candidates at scale.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Spot problems, understand their root cause and <strong>bring solutions rather than simply highlighting what’s wrong</strong>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Experiment with new tools and approaches, turning what works into scalable processes for the wider Talent team.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Create structure where it’s needed while staying comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities will change.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Talent Partnership</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Build trusted relationships with Operations leaders and become someone they rely on for both hiring execution and advice.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Bring data, market insight and recommendations to hiring conversations rather than simply taking requirements.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Be a genuine <strong>team player,</strong> sharing what works, jumping in when others need support and prioritising the success of the wider team</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Bring a positive, constructive mentality. When something isn’t working, your energy goes into figuring out how we make it better.</p>
</li>

<p>A track record of delivering significant hiring volumes without sacrificing candidate quality or experience.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A genuinely <strong>solution-oriented mindset,</strong> you naturally move from identifying a problem to figuring out what we should do about it.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Strong evidence of using <strong>AI and automation to make your work faster, smarter or more effective</strong>. We care about what you've actually done with it, not just which tools you've tried.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A bias towards action and the ability to get things moving without waiting for perfect information or perfect processes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Strong analytical instincts and the ability to use recruiting data to understand what needs attention.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A <strong>team-first, positive mentality</strong> and a willingness to jump in wherever you can make an impact.</p>

<li>
<p>Strong stakeholder-management skills and the confidence to challenge constructively when you see a better way.</p>
