Description

Allied Talent Partners (ATP), a Three Cairns Group initiative, is a mission-driven, not-for-profit talent marketplace focused on solving the human capital bottlenecks slowing down sustainable development efforts in emerging economies, with an initial focus on Africa. ATP connects vetted, experienced, context-relevant professionals to high-impact opportunities in energy access and sustainable development - strengthening local capacity and fuelling economic vitality. We specialize in fixed-term, deliverable-driven engagements - from interim leadership and generalist projects to niche technical expertise - handling project scoping, talent vetting and matching, contracting, payroll, and compliance so that our clients can focus on impact.

As our work continues to scale, a short-term contractor is required to support a professional services talent advisory firm with its Q1 2026 hiring cycle. The organisation is recruiting four full-time roles (strategy, talent acquisition, business development, project delivery) and one part-time role (administration) and seeks outsourced support to drive candidate sourcing, screening, and shortlist creation. The client will supply job descriptions, initial sourcing leads, and will post roles on LinkedIn; the contractor will manage the broader sourcing, assessment, and shortlisting process to deliver qualified candidate slates for each role.
