As a Talent Business Partner at Roblox, reporting to the Senior Manager, Talent Acquisition, you will serve as a strategic advisor and partner to hiring leaders across Roblox’s Design & Creative teams. You will do more than manage and build pipelines, acting as an embedded consultant, understanding the nuances of craft, portfolio quality, and creative storytelling. You will serve as the primary architect of the candidate journey, ensuring every designer and creative experiences a hiring process that is as thoughtful and intentional as the products they build. By sourcing and closing top-tier talent across disciplines like Product Design, Brand Creative, and UX, you will directly influence Roblox's aesthetic and the experience that our users have.

You Will:

• Lead full-cycle recruitment for roles on our Design and Brand Creative teams, managing everything from the initial recruiting strategy meetings to final offer negotiations.
• Partner with hiring leaders and the broader D&C talent team to execute on thoughtful and effective hiring strategies and processes that ensure accurate evaluation and assessment of top talent.
• Source and engage passive talent through creative outreach, networking, and a deep presence in the global Design & Creative communities.
• Evaluate creative portfolios with a critical eye, identifying high-quality work that aligns with our brand standards and technical needs.
• Advise on market trends, providing hiring managers with data-driven insights on the competitive landscape for creative talent.
• Enhance the candidate experience, serving as an ambassador who can articulate our design vision and culture with passion.

You Have:

• 3+ years of recruiting experience, with a significant portion dedicated to hiring Design and Creative professionals (Product Designers, Art Directors, UX Researchers, etc.).
• A strong portfolio-review skill set, with the ability to discuss design process, hierarchy, and execution as a peer to the hiring manager.
• Success in a fast-paced environment, either in-house at a tech-forward company or within a high-caliber creative agency.
• Mastery of sourcing tools such as LinkedIn Recruiter, Dribbble, Behance, and other design-centric platforms.
• Experience managing complex offers, including a strong grasp of equity structures, relocation, and competitive creative compensation.
• A history of building diverse teams, with a proven ability to source and advocate for underrepresented talent in the creative space.

You Are:

• A Craft Enthusiast: You genuinely appreciate great design and enjoy keeping up with the latest trends in UI/UX and brand storytelling.
• A Strategic Consultant: You don't just take orders; you provide value by challenging assumptions and offering solutions to hiring bottlenecks.
• An Exceptional Communicator: You can translate complex business needs into a compelling narrative for candidates.
• Highly Empathetic: You understand the unique motivations of creative people and tailor your approach to build genuine, long-term rapport.
• Detail-Oriented: You take pride in "clean" data, organized pipelines, and a polished, professional candidate journey.
• Persistent and Proactive: You are a natural hunter who finds joy in the search and isn't afraid to try unconventional methods to find the right talent.
