Everyone who works at Lidl brings something unique to the table - but we also have a whole lot in common. We’re curious, collaborative, and ready to make a tangible impact on where we work.
Just like you
We’re looking for a driven and people-focused Talent Acquisition Manager on a 15 Month Fixed Term Contract to oversee a team of Talent Acquisition Administrators and an Officer, responsible for hiring top talent across a cluster of regions.
This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll combine strategic thinking with operational excellence. You’ll guide your team, support their development, and ensure recruitment processes run smoothly, efficiently, and in line with our values.
At Lidl, we offer a hybrid working model to give you the best of both worlds. Spend three days or more in our state-of-the-art office, where you can enjoy an on-site gym, restaurant, and more of the perks you deserve. And with up to two days at home, you’ll find the work/life balance you need to thrive.
