Job Summary   Manages the company's staffing agency (contingent workforce) program end-to-end: the central point of contact between the business, Talent Acquisition, and external staffing/recruitment agencies.

This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role — the person in this seat will personally execute the day-to-day work described below (not just set direction or oversee from a distance): running the daily agency communications, building and maintaining the trackers, chasing down missing documentation, reconciling invoices and hours, and following up directly with agencies and hiring managers to keep things moving.

Helps build and manage governance, documentation, and processes that make the agency ecosystem run predictably — onboarding/offboarding, performance and compliance monitoring, invoicing coordination, and continuous improvement — while also rolling up sleeves to support broader TA initiatives (employer branding, reporting, process improvement, projects). Reports to the Director of Talent and Development.

Key Responsibilities   Program Ownership & Agency Relationships   Primary responsibility will be to run the overall staffing agency program day-to-day; act as the main point of contact for internal stakeholders and external staffing partners. Build and maintain strong, professional relationships with staffing and recruitment agencies through regular, direct contact. Directly handle agency communication, meetings, updates, and ongoing activities — this is hands-on coordination, not delegated oversight.

Ensure stakeholders have clear information on processes and responsibilities, proactively communicating updates rather than waiting to be asked. Act as escalation point for hiring managers and agencies on issues (rate disputes, candidate quality, SLA breaches, contract questions). Performance Management & Reporting   Define and actively track SLAs/KPIs — e.g., time-to-fill, fill rate, submission-to-interview ratio, offer-accept rate, quality of hire, agency spend, and rate card compliance — following up on performance day-to-day and running regular (monthly/quarterly) business reviews with top agencies.

Produce regular TA/vendor dashboards for leadership (spend, headcount fulfilled via agencies vs. direct sourcing, time-to-fill trends, vendor scorecards). Identify opportunities to improve efficiency, quality, and cost-effectiveness within the agency program , and drive the fixes through to completion. Governance, Process & Documentation   Establish clear ways of working, processes, guidelines, and governance for collaboration with external agencies, and personally maintain them going forward.

Personally maintain and continuously improve documentation, agreements, processes, guidelines, and program materials. Execute the administration of the program directly: onboarding/offboarding agenc
