When I joined Newcastle Investors, the recruitment process was in its infancy—no dedicated recruiter, no centralized hiring, and a small employer brand—so I led a strategic overhaul to build a scalable system that would attract top-tier talent and support the growth of both brands under one company.Here’s what we've been able to do:- Implemented the Greenhouse ATS to efficiently manage a high volume of applications, streamline the hiring process, and centralize our candidate database for improved tracking and decision-making.- Designed a scalable recruitment strategy to ensure long-term success.- Sourced top-tier talent for SVP, VP, and Director roles across real estate and property management.- Built a diverse, high-performing pipeline across C-suite, HR, Asset Management, and other key functions.Safe to say – we’re not just ready for growth; we’re driving it forward.
