I'm a Talent Acquisition leader building more than pipelines; I build trust, structure, and strategy.
At bpx energy, bp's US onshore oil and gas business, I lead the TA function through fast-paced, high impact transformations. In just over a year, I've rebuilt our recruiting team into a high performing, consultative partner to the business, delivering record hiring outcomes while standardizing processes, modernizing tools, and regaining the trust of our stakeholders.
Recent highlights:
- Co-led a critical M&A hiring initiative integrating 71 employees (32 external hires) in 90 days, totaling $12.3MM in salaries
- Hired 92 employees YTD, across technical, field, corporate, and leadership roles
- Reduced time-to-fill and time-to-hire through clear process discipline and active pipeline management
- Created and launched a full-scale recruiting dashboard to automate reporting and support data-driven decisions
Beyond the reqs and reports, I love to solve hard problems with people at the center. My background spans nearly two decades across agency and (primarily) in-house roles, from sourcing operators and engineers to hiring VPs and C-Suite leaders. I thrive in complex environments where TA strategy actually matters.
My superpowers?
- Building lean, high-performing recruiting teams
- Operationalizing processes that scale
- Translating business goals into clear hiring strategies
- Coaching recruiters and hiring leaders alike
Also? I'm a lifelong learner, curious creator, and big believer that empathy, transparency, and a good Boolean string go a long way. Let's connect if you're into TA strategy, hiring transformation, recruiter enablement, or turning ideas into results.
