About the role

We are looking for someone who already understands agency recruiting and knows what it takes to keep candidate pipelines moving, fill multiple jobs at the same time, and communicate consistently with candidates, clients, and the internal team.

• Manage multiple jobs and candidate pipelines at the same time
• Follow up with candidates quickly and consistently
• Keep candidate records, notes, status updates, and follow-up activities accurate in our ATS
• Work closely with other recruiters, account managers, salespeople, operations, and leadership
• Communicate recruiting challenges, candidate feedback, pay concerns, and market conditions to the team

• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Comfortable working independently without needing constant direction
• Strong sense of urgency and personal accountability
• Able to prioritize work as hiring needs change throughout the day

How You'll Work

• Takes ownership of their jobs without waiting to be reminded
• Starts the day knowing which positions and candidates need attention
• Follows up when they say they will
• Keeps accurate notes so the rest of the team knows what is happening
• Communicates problems early instead of letting them sit
