Ben is Head of International Talent at OpenAI. He brings extensive experience in scaling global teams, having previously served as Chief of Staff at Miro and led recruitment functions at Miro, Wise, and Aristocrat Technologies.
What’s a recent professional achievement of yours that you are proud of?
At Miro, I led the international location and role strategy, determining where to expand globally and which functions to hire in each market. The approach balanced ARR growth, customer proximity, and talent depth, enabling sustainable scaling with clear workforce intent rather than reactive hiring.
Finally, what is your prediction for the TA industry for 2026?
In 2026, I see a significant shift toward automation and AI-driven recruitment tools, which I believe will revolutionise the hiring process. These technologies will not only streamline recruitment but also enhance the effectiveness of hiring decisions by providing deeper insights and improving efficiency. I’m excited about the potential for these innovations to transform the industry, making talent acquisition faster, more data-driven, and ultimately more precise.
