At DHL our business is logistics, but people are our passion. With over 500,000 team members in 220 countries, we attract and retain great talent. We are one of the most innovative, most culturally diverse companies on the planet. We provide unmatched opportunities for personal and professional development. We really are a “Best Place to Work”.
The Global Recruiting & Onboarding Process Tower Expert plays a key role in shaping, governing, and continuously improving DHL Supply Chain's recruitment and onboarding processes on a global scale. This is not an operational recruitment role; instead, it is focused on the design, optimisation, and standardisation of end-to-end recruiting and onboarding processes, ensuring they are efficient, scalable, compliant, and aligned with business needs.
Combining process expertise, systems knowledge, data analysis, and digital capability, the role drives process excellence through continuous improvement, automation, governance, and user adoption initiatives. Working closely with HR teams, IT, product owners, and external vendors, the successful candidate will identify opportunities to enhance ways of working, maximise technology investment, and deliver consistent, technology-enabled recruitment and onboarding experiences across the global business. Through a strong focus on process management rather than direct hiring activity, the role helps create sustainable, future-ready solutions that support organisational growth and operational efficiency.
