Talent Brand & Enablement Partner | EssilorLuxottica UK&I Optical Retail

Great Brands Need Great Talent. Help Us Find It.At EssilorLuxottica, we bring together world-leading expertise in vision care, eyewear and retail, helping millions of people

We're looking for a Talent Brand & Enablement Partner to play a pivotal role in transforming Talent Acquisition across our UK&I Optical & Sun Retail division, supporting some of the most recognised brands, including Vision Express, David Clulow, Sunglass Hut and John Lewis Opticians.

This is not a traditional recruiter role.

Instead, you'll sit at the centre of Talent Acquisition, shaping how we attract, engage and hire exceptional talent. Combining employer brand, recruitment marketing, candidate experience, technology, data and continuous improvement, you'll help create the tools, insights and strategies that enable outstanding hiring outcomes.

If you're passionate about recruitment, love building compelling employer brands and thrive on finding innovative ways to attract talent, this is an opportunity to make a real impact in a global organisation.

Why this role is different

Talent Acquisition is evolving, and so are we.

You'll help shape how we attract talent today while building the foundations for tomorrow. From bringing our Employer Value Proposition to life and enhancing the candidate experience, to optimising recruitment technology and delivering data-driven insights, you'll play a key role in helping our Talent Acquisition team stay ahead of the curve.

Working across our Optical & Sun Retail brands, you'll influence how thousands of candidates experience EssilorLuxottica, helping us attract the talent that will drive our future success.

Who we're looking for

You're someone who sees Talent Acquisition as more than filling vacancies.

You understand that employer brand, candidate experience, technology and attraction strategy are powerful competitive advantages.

You'll likely have experience in Talent Acquisition, Employer Brand, Recruitment Marketing, Talent Attraction or TA Operations and be excited by the opportunity to shape what's next.

You'll bring:

✔ A passion for Talent Acquisition and creating exceptional hiring experiences

✔ Experience in recruitment marketing, employer branding or attraction strategy

✔ Strong commercial thinking and a data-driven approach

✔ Confidence working with recruitment technology and digital platforms

✔ The ability to influence, challenge and inspire stakeholders

✔ A mindset focused on innovation, continuous improvement and delivering results

What's in it for you?

This is your chance to grab hold of an area that is becoming increasingly critical to business success.

You'll have the freedom to introduce new ideas, influence strategy, drive innovation and make a visible impact on how we attract and hire talent.

Most importantly, you'll help build a Talent Acquisition function that doesn't just keep up with the market but sets the standard.

Ready to make your mark?

If you're ready to challenge convention, elevate Talent Acquisition and help shape the future of hiring, we'd love to hear from you.
