What you'll be doing
The Talent Acquisition Operations team helps shape the experiences, processes, and practices that support our hiring strategy across CIBC. As a Manager, Candidate Care and Talent Acquisition Operations, you'll lead three key areas of this role: people leadership for the Candidate Care Specialist team, training and change enablement for the broader Talent Acquisition (TA) function, and process improvement across TA operations. You'll coach and support the Candidate Care team, manage escalations, and use reporting and insights to improve team capacity, service quality, and the overall candidate experience. You'll also oversee training resources and documentation for the broader recruitment team by developing clear materials such as quick reference guides (QRGs), process documents, and communications that support Talent Acquisition operations. In addition, you'll help drive change management and continuous improvement initiatives that strengthen operational effectiveness across the TA function.
At CIBC we enable the work environment most optimal for you to thrive in your role. You'll have the flexibility to manage your work activities within a hybrid work arrangement where you'll spend 1-3 days per week on-site, while other days will be remote.
