Kennedy Zwane

Senior Career Consultant acts as an intermediary between organisations wishing to recruit staff (clients) and professionals (candidates) seeking a career/job change. The objective of a senior career consultant is to meet the needs of both the client and the candidate to ensure the best mutual fit. This is not simply a case of skills matching but one of truly understanding a client's business and its culture, as well as the career aspirations and expectations of a candidate.

My key responsibilities include:

Candidates
Providing general career advice and guidance.
Identifying and educating candidates on current opportunities.
Briefing candidates on suitable roles and preparing candidates for client interview.
Marketing roles and services to both new and existing candidates.

Clients
Acquiring new clients through business development both on the phone and in person
Developing long-term and trusted relationships with clients by obtaining a comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of the organisation, its culture and resourcing requirements.
Receiving and consulting on client resourcing briefs and communicating details to relevant candidates.
Developing and implementing short-term and long-term recruitment campaigns on behalf of clients
Managing the recruitment process - from candidate screening through to interview, performance feedback and offer negotiation.
