BJAK


Date: 2 days ago
City: Petaling Jaya
Contract type: Full time

Build the Team That Builds the Future

At BJAK, we believe world-class products start with world-class people. As we expand our presence in Thailand, we’re looking for a Talent Acquisition Lead (Thailand) to take charge of our hiring efforts in the country and support selected regional roles across Southeast Asia.

This is a hybrid role based in Thailand, where you’ll partner closely with our HQ team in Malaysia and work cross-functionally with engineering, operations, AI, and business leaders. You’ll own the entire hiring lifecycle, source strategically, and help us bring in top-tier talent aligned with our mission to reshape financial access across the region.


What You'll Do

  • Lead end-to-end recruitment for Thailand-based and remote roles across functions like tech, operations, and business.
  • Act as the quality gatekeeper - screen CVs and assess candidates beyond the resume to ensure team and mission fit
  • Source proactively across Thai platforms (e.g., JobsDB, LinkedIn, Line groups, local tech communities) and international networks
  • Partner with hiring managers to deeply understand team needs, refine job scopes, and run structured hiring processes
  • Conduct interviews that assess both competency and alignment with our values and pace.
  • Provide structured, clear feedback to candidates and internal stakeholders
  • Ensure a smooth, fast, and respectful candidate experience throughout the process
  • Monitor and optimize hiring funnel health using our ATS and relevant data points
  • Stay on top of Thailand’s talent landscape - salary trends, candidate behaviors, and sourcing hotspots - to inform hiring strategy


What We're Looking For

  • You treat recruitment as strategic - you don’t just fill roles, you build teams
  • You’re hands-on, proactive, and resourceful in finding and closing top talent
  • You thrive in high-autonomy environments and are comfortable operating independently
  • You’re Thailand-savvy - familiar with local hiring platforms, behaviors, and challenges
  • You’re candidate-centric and understand how to build trust quickly in a culturally sensitive way
  • You’re execution-driven and comfortable balancing urgency with quality


You'll Excel in This Role if You..

  • Have a sharp eye for top talent - even from non-traditional or local backgrounds
  • Are highly organized and able to juggle multiple roles and timelines
  • Communicate clearly, professionally, and confidently in both Thai and English
  • Enjoy building - whether that’s sourcing strategies, interview playbooks, or feedback loops
  • Take full ownership of hiring pipelines and don’t wait to be told what to do
  • Can influence hiring decisions with clarity, confidence, and evidence


Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience in full-cycle recruiting, preferably in tech, startup, or cross-functional environments
  • Proven ability to hire across different levels and job families (engineering, product, ops, etc.)
  • Strong sourcing experience using Thai and international platforms (JobsDB, LinkedIn, local communities)
  • Familiarity with ATS systems and recruitment analytics
  • Strong communication and stakeholder alignment skills
  • Based in Thailand and able to work in hybrid mode
  • Fluent in Thai and English (both written and spoken)


Nice to Have

  • Experience hiring in fast-scaling environments or startups
  • Background in tech/AI/product recruitment
  • Familiarity with employer branding or recruitment marketing
  • Exposure to hiring across Southeast Asia or remote-first teams
  • Knowledge of structured interviewing and evaluation frameworks


Why Join BJAK

  • Competitive compensation above local market average
  • Hybrid work flexibility with full ownership and autonomy
  • Mission-driven work with tangible impact across Asia
  • Flat, fast-moving, no-politics team culture
  • Direct exposure to leadership and strategic hiring decisions
  • Opportunity to help shape the future of financial services in Thailand and beyond
