Talent Aquisition Specialist

At Dis-Chem Life, we are building something extraordinary—and to do that, we need extraordinary people. The Talent Acquisition Specialist is the heartbeat of our talent engine, the conduit through which opportunity flows, and the bridge between potential and performance.

Reporting to the Head of HR, this role demands far more than filling jobs—it requires a master talent connector, someone who lives and breathes recruitment, someone who can walk into any room, decode a hiring manager’s vision, and translate it into talent strategy and execution. This person must personify the Dis-Chem Life brand: driven, relentless in their pursuit for excellence, purpose-led, innovative, and people-first.

You won’t just recruit—you’ll own, lead, guide, hustle, and be in the driver seat in finding only the Top talent in south Africa.

The Talent Acquisition Specialist role at Dis-Chem Life is a pivotal role, responsible for attracting, engaging, and hiring top-tier talent across back-office functions. This hands-on, delivery-driven position requires a blend of agency and in-house recruitment experience, ideally within financial services or a similar regulated industry.

Success in this role demands expertise in managing the full recruitment lifecycle, strong stakeholder collaboration, and the ability to quickly identify and secure talent that fits both the role and our culture. The ideal candidate will be a highly motivated, results-oriented professional, with advanced sourcing skills, high emotional intelligence, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

This individual will be an ambassador for the Dis-Chem Life brand, consistently delivering high-quality hires and ensuring an exceptional candidate experience throughout the process.
