Lia Nelissen

A dynamic and self-motivated People and Talent Leader with expertise in talent acquisition, end-to-end recruitment, business culture and strategy with vast experience working in high-performing, changing organisations.

I have a profound passion for building successful and engaged teams, developing people skills and working strategically towards creating business efficiencies and objectives with an innovative approach to talent. All of this was achieved whilst striving to make a difference and incorporate changes to organisational structure.

My expertise lies in successfully coordinating full-cycle organisational recruitment processes, including candidate sourcing, recruiting, interviewing, and negotiating. For more than seventeen years, I have excelled in demonstrating an ability to anticipate management and staffing needs and consistently identify optimal talent to achieve or exceed goals. Additionally, my proven talents in communication, employee engagement and general business acumen positions help me to make a significant contribution to your company.

I would draw your attention to my CV which shows the range of roles that I have undertaken which require an excellent level of attention to detail, prioritisation, communication skills and team-work. I am a determined and enthusiastic person with good business awareness and strong leadership skills.

Responsible for full-cycle recruiting and hiring from Operative to Board level, and everything in between; directing all facets of talent acquisition – including advertising, candidate sourcing, interviewing, to generate outstanding placements. At ITAB UK, I am a part of a Recruitment Council for the global business, whereby we discuss, design, implement and train on recruitment processes for the global organisation.
