About Grace Geoffrina
“Hi, I’m Grace, currently based in Chennai, India. I hold a degree in Information Technology and with five years of experience, I’ve honed my skills and developed a strong passion for recruitment and strategic talent planning.
Prior to joining Gentium Tech International, I served as a Recruitment Consultant, managing end-to-end hiring for IT and technology-driven roles. My experience spans sourcing high-calibre candidates, stakeholder engagement, and aligning recruitment efforts with broader business objectives.”
What Drew Her to Gentium Tech International
“I was particularly drawn to Gentium’s global footprint, its forward-thinking approach, and the emphasis on innovation and collaboration. The organisation’s culture of inclusivity, agility, and excellence strongly resonated with my professional values and aspirations.
During my initial conversation with Joel, Nick, and Kevin in Chennai, when they visited India as part of Gentium’s operational expansion, I gained valuable insights into the company’s strategic vision. That discussion further solidified my belief that Gentium offers the ideal environment to grow professionally, make meaningful contributions, and collaborate with a high-performing international team.”
Grace’s Role and Motivations
“I’ve joined Gentium Tech International as a Lead Recruiter, responsible for supporting global hiring initiatives and identifying exceptional talent across a range of industries and technical domains.
I’m particularly excited about contributing to strategic recruitment processes, enhancing the overall candidate experience, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to support high-impact projects.”
First Impressions and Company Culture
“My initial impression has been incredibly positive. The culture here is professional yet welcoming, with a strong emphasis on collaboration, open communication, and mutual respect.
There’s a genuine commitment to excellence and a strong sense of community, which makes Gentium a truly inspiring place to work.”
Life Beyond Recruitment
“Outside of work, I have a strong appreciation for music, particularly Tamil melodies which I often turn to for relaxation and inspiration. I also enjoy watching documentaries and exploring new destinations whenever the opportunity arises.
Weekends are my time to slow down - I consider myself a bit of a laid-back soul on Saturdays, usually unwinding with a good playlist or catching up on a favourite series.
Doodling is another quiet passion of mine as it’s a creative outlet that allows me to express myself and recharge mentally. I also cherish spending quality time with my pet Max; he’s an important part of my downtime and brings a great deal of joy and calm to my everyday routine.”
Looking Ahead at Gentium
“In the initial six months, my focus is to integrate seamlessly into the team, establish strong working relationships, and deliver high-quality recruitment outcomes.
I’m also keen on contributing to process optimisation by introducing structured recruitment protocols that support consistency, transparency, and scalability.
Additionally, I aim to leverage data-driven strategies to enhance hiring efficiency and ensure we’re aligned with both business objectives and talent expectations.”
Advice for New Joiners
“Embrace every opportunity to learn and connect. Approach the role with curiosity, be proactive in seeking feedback, and take the time to understand the company’s values and goals.
A growth mindset and willingness to adapt go a long way in setting a solid foundation for long-term success.”
At Gentium Tech International, we’re committed to growing a diverse, forward-thinking team that shares our passion for innovation, excellence, and people-first values. Grace’s arrival marks an exciting step in that journey.
