The Opportunity:
This is not a volume recruitment role — and it is not a role for developing recruiters.

This is a high‑pressure, high‑impact executive search role operating at the centre of a complex, matrixed, multinational organisation during a period of rapid transformation. And, for the right person, it'll be the most rewarding job and a lot of fun

As Hitachi Energy continues to scale across EMEA in the context of the global energy transition, the demand for exceptional leadership has intensified. Our Executive Talent Acquisition team sits at the heart of this agenda — navigating competing priorities, strong opinions, confidential searches, and senior‑level politics to deliver the right leaders at the right time.

We are now expanding the team with an additional Executive Talent Acquisition Partner who thrives in ambiguity, is energised by competing demands, and is credible operating as a peer to senior leaders.

You will work across multiple executive searches simultaneously, often with limited tolerance for delay, incomplete information, and evolving stakeholder expectations.



Success in this role requires resilience, judgement, and the confidence to push back — constructively — when needed.

This role can be based anywhere in Europe.
- Relocation and visa sponsorship are not available._

How You Will Make an Impact:
In this role, you will:
- Personally lead multiple, complex executive search assignments across EMEA, often in parallel and frequently under time pressure.
- Operate as a trusted but challenging partner to Senior Leaders, HRBPs, and other senior stakeholders — balancing influence, diplomacy, and commercial realism.
- Navigate conflicting stakeholder agendas, organisational politics, and unclear decision ownership while maintaining momentum and credibility.
- Design and execute bespoke, research‑led sourcing strategies, including direct search and market mapping, for senior and executive‑level roles.
- Own the end‑to‑end executive recruitment lif
