Talent Acquisition Specialist (Sydney)

Role Overview

Let’s be clear: this is not an HR or People role.

This is a talent acquisition role for someone who enjoys hiring at pace, partnering closely with the business, and helping build high-performing teams in a company that is growing quickly. If you are looking for a broader HR path or a role centered on policy, employee relations, or people operations, this will not be the right fit.

At Fresha, we are looking for a Talent Specialist to join our Sydney office and help drive hiring across a business with real momentum, particularly as we continue expanding across Southeast Asia and the wider Asia Pacific region.

This role will suit someone who is energised by a busy hiring environment, comfortable managing multiple priorities at once, and motivated by the chance to make a visible commercial impact. 

You’ll partner closely with our Global Head of Talent, Senior Talent Partners, and hiring managers to deliver a high-quality, end-to-end hiring experience. From sourcing and screening candidates to coordinating interviews and onboarding support, you’ll play a key role in building high-performing teams across our business.

This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-moving, high-growth environment. You’ll be proactive, organised, and eager to take ownership from day one.

You’ll join a small, collaborative team with experience from companies like Google, Meta, Amazon, Uber, Cleo AI, and Sandbox VR — all passionate about delivering best-in-class hiring experiences for both candidates and internal stakeholders.

- Global Impact – Help build the teams behind a platform used in 100+ countries

- Real Ownership – Take on full-cycle recruitment responsibilities from the start

- Mentorship & Growth – Learn from industry experts and accelerate your development

- Fast Pace, High Impact – Move quickly, collaborate deeply, and make your mark

We set a high bar, and the pace is real. There will be busy periods, shifting priorities, and times where speed matters. But this is not pressure for the sake of pressure. It is about building well, moving with intent, and hiring the right people to support meaningful growth.

We work closely together in the Sydney office because it helps us move faster, stay aligned, and build stronger working relationships. For the right person, that creates a more connected, energising environment and a much clearer sense of momentum.

What this role is not:

This is not a generalist HR position.
It is not focused on people operations or administration.
It is not a remote role.

It is a hands-on talent role for someone who wants to do high-impact hiring in a company that is scaling and expects strong execution.

This is an opportunity to do meaningful work in a business whose product genuinely helps its customers succeed. You will join a team that cares about quality, values pace, and gives talented people the room to make a real contribution.

If you are ambitious, commercially minded, and motivated by building teams in an environment with momentum, this is the kind of role where you can do some of your best work.

• End-to-end recruitment experience in a fast-growing global scale-up
• Broad exposure across multiple functions, markets, and hiring strategies
• A supportive, high-performing team environment with room to grow
• The chance to help shape the hiring function and make a lasting impact
