Senior Consultant – Talent Division

Priya Vencatasawmy

I am a Senior Consultant for the Talent Division, responsible for bringing fresh new talent into the industry. I manage the whole candidate and client experience from candidate attraction through to successful placement on the Zitko Talent Programme. I work with several professional training providers, manufacturers, and Security/Fire Integrators. My goal is to build the engineering talent pipeline and solving the shortage of Fire & Security engineers.

What’s your elevator pitch?

I have worked as a Resource and Training Coordinator for Johnson Controls previously. My experience of the security industry gives me a competitive advantage in my current role.

What do you do every day?

My role varies day to day, but I support the continued growth and development of the Zitko Talent Programme. This includes sourcing and selecting the best candidates from outstanding the industry, assessing suitability, managing the automated video interview process, working with Fire and Security Integrators to ensure placed candidates are mentored, supported, and engaged during employment. The division is scaling very quickly, and it is really exciting.

Who are you interested in talking to?

If you are handy with tools, are a good problem-solver and most of all really love tech, we can give you the key to an amazing career. I speak to college leavers, graduates, and engineers from similar technical industries! Send me an email and we can get the ball rolling!

What do you like to do for fun?

I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I like to travel to different countries and explore new areas. Most importantly I love food! So, any opportunity to try a new cuisine, I am always in!
