Why Join Us
Admaren is a Kochi-headquartered parent group with product companies, service businesses, and a creative studio under one structure. Our teams work across maritime software, marine engineering services, animation, visualization, and emerging new business areas.
This gives the Talent Acquisition role a broader mandate than a typical single-domain hiring role. You will hire across very different talent markets, from software engineers, product managers, QA, DevOps, and architects to naval architects, marine specialists, 3D artists, creative talent, and senior business roles.
The role sits at the parent group level, giving you visibility across multiple businesses and the opportunity to build hiring playbooks that work across product, services, and creative functions. You will not be limited to closing similar requirements repeatedly. You will be expected to understand each business, define the right sourcing approach, improve hiring processes, and strengthen Admaren’s ability to attract high-quality talent.
You will report to the AVP, Head HR, with the opportunity to shape TA processes, tools, reporting, and candidate experience as the group scales. Based in Kochi, this is a strong opportunity for someone who wants a broader TA mandate while working in a growing maritime-tech ecosystem.
