What is Recruiting & Talent Acquisition?
Recruiting & Talent Acquisition is Vantage's in-house talent acquisition search practice. Instead of placing recruiters into recruitment agencies — which is what Rec2Rec does — this practice places Talent Acquisition leaders, recruiting managers and sourcing specialists directly inside companies that are building or scaling their own internal recruiting function.
Roles we place
- Country-level Head of Talent Acquisition roles
- Regional Talent Acquisition Director roles
- Global Head of Talent Acquisition roles
- In-house recruiter and sourcer placement
- Recruiting operations and Talent Acquisition analytics roles
- Talent Acquisition function build-out advisory for scaling companies
Who this is for
If your company is hiring its own internal recruiting team — not staffing an agency — this is the practice you want. It covers everything from a first internal recruiter hire to a full Talent Acquisition leadership team.
Active across the United States, UK & Ireland, Benelux, France and DACH, with dedicated regional consultants for each market.
Recruiting & Talent Acquisition vs. Rec2Rec
Staffing an agency instead? See our Rec2Rec practice, which places recruiters into recruitment agencies, RPOs and search boutiques rather than into in-house teams.
Engagement models
We run this practice under three engagement models: retained search for senior, exclusive mandates; contingency search for faster, pay-on-placement hires; and interim / fractional placements for short-term or part-time leadership cover.
