## Job description

DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world. We value autonomy and the ability to quickly pivot to capture opportunities, so we operate using our own capital and trading at our own risk.

Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.

We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it’s not just what we do that matters–it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.

As a Talent Acquisition Coordinator, you will play a key role in delivering an exceptional candidate and employee experience across the APAC region. This hybrid role combines recruitment coordination with HR operational support, coordinating interview scheduling, supporting onboarding and offboarding processes, maintaining HR documentation and employee records and ensuring that recruitment and HR activities are completed in an accurate and efficient manner.

Working closely with Recruitment, HR and business stakeholders, you will coordinate hiring activities and support day to day HR operations. Your attention to detail, organizational skills and proactive approach will help to ensure a positive experience for both candidates and employees.

- Maintain accurate candidate and requisition data within Greenhouse and Workday.
- Support recruitment events, including Super Days, hiring initiatives, and other talent acquisition programs.
- Assist with special projects, process improvements, and recruiting operations and reporting initiatives.

Onboarding & Employee Experience

- Support the onboarding process for new hires and contractors, ensuring a smooth transition from candidate to employee.
- Partner with cross-functional teams including HR Operations, Compliance, Technology, and Workplace to coordinate onboarding logistics.
- Coordinate weekly orientation schedules, invitations, and onboarding communications.
- Deliver new hire orientation sessions, introducing employees to company culture, policies, programs, and benefits.
- Act as a trusted resource for new hires, helping them to navigate their transition into DRW and ensuring a positive onboarding experience.

HR Operations

- Serve as the first point of contact for employee enquiries relating to HR administration in APAC, including but not limited to benefits, employee data changes and employee documentation
- Directing employees to the appropriate HR Center of Excellence as needed.
- Support day-to-day HR transactions within Workday, including onboarding, employee changes, transfers, and offboarding activities across APAC.
- Assist with employee offboarding processes, including documentation, system access coordination, and logistics.
- Support process improvement initiatives to enhance operational efficiency and employee experience.

## What We're Looking For

- 2–4 years of experience in Talent Acquisition Coordination, HR Operations, or a related HR function.

- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a candidate and employee first mindset.
