About the Role
BINAR is looking for a Talent Management Specialist to build and manage the pool of trainers and education professionals behind our Digital Talent Acceleration (DTA) programs. You will own the talent side of delivery: sourcing, screening, matching, fee negotiation, and performance follow-up, so every program gets qualified talent, within budget, on time.
You will work closely with Program Managers, Business Development, Learning Solutions, Finance, and Legal, and deal directly with external trainers, SMEs, learning designers, co-facilitators, and other education professionals. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building talent networks, matching the right person to the right program, negotiating fair deals, and keeping a talent pool ready before demand peaks.
Please note: This role focuses on freelance and project-based talent for training programs, not internal employee recruitment.
Key Responsibilities
1. Talent Sourcing & Pipeline
- Source trainers and education professionals through multiple channels (personal network, communities, referrals, platforms) to fulfil every request within the 3-working-day sourcing SLA.
- Map talent gaps against upcoming programs and business pillars, and build the pipeline so talent is ready before demand peaks.
- Respond to talent requests from Program Managers and Business Development, including trainer and speaker profiles for proposals.
2. Screening, Profiling & Matching
- Screen and profile candidates on expertise, experience, delivery style, and availability.
- Recommend a shortlist of 2–3 talents per program need, so Program Managers can make the final selection with confidence.
- Coordinate intro calls and support the assignment process to get the right match the first time.
3. Talent Pool Management
- Keep the talent pool accurate, current, and easy to search.
- Decide pool inclusion based on screening results.
- Retain, develop, or remove talent based on quality and performance data, to keep the active pool at BINAR standard.
4. Fee Negotiation & Engagement
- Negotiate trainer and talent fees and engagement terms within the rate card and approved program budget.
- Work with Legal to complete agreements so contracts are in place before delivery.
- Provide talent payment data to Finance and HC, and confirm payments on schedule.
5. Talent Readiness & Quality
- Coordinate trainer participation in TFF so they are ready to deliver BINAR's learning design.
- Monitor talent performance, including conducting offline session observations when needed.
- Follow up on performance gaps using feedback from Program Managers and quality data.
- Share talent data to support the trainer quality dashboard and continuous improvement of rate card and pool practices.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in HR, Psychology, Business, or a related field with 2+ years of relevant experience, or a Diploma (D3) with 4+ years.
- 2–4 years of experience in Talent Acquisition, Talent or Vendor Management, or Sourcing.
- Hands-on experience managing a freelance or contractor talent pool, including fee negotiation.
- Strong multi-channel and relationship-based sourcing skills.
- Solid screening and profiling skills to assess fit beyond the CV.
- Organised with data: comfortable maintaining trackers and talent databases in Google Sheets.
- Commercially aware: understands how talent fees affect program cost and margin.
- Responsive and able to coordinate many stakeholders and requests at once.
- Fluent in Bahasa Indonesia and English.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in L&D, EdTech, training providers, or professional services.
- An existing network of trainers, facilitators, or subject matter experts, especially in tech, digital, or AI.
- Experience handling instructors or SMEs for bootcamps or corporate training programs.

What You'll Get
- Ownership of the talent pool that directly shapes the quality of BINAR's programs.
