Sourcing & Emerging Talent Specialist

About the role

This is a role for a natural connector. Part storyteller, part strategist, part talent scout — you'll spend your time where great people already are, not waiting for them to come to you.

Responsibilities

• Building pipelines for our hardest-to-fill roles across 90+ locations and 8 states — before the need is urgent
• Digging past job boards to find passive candidates and niche talent others aren't reaching
• Designing outreach campaigns (email, SMS, social) that feel personal, because relationships take more than one touch, they take multiple
• Becoming the go-to person for mortuary science programs, career fairs, and our internship cohort — helping the next generation see a future here
• Partnering with marketing to help tell Vertin's story on LinkedIn, Handshake, and beyond
• Keeping candidates informed and supported at every step, so no one falls through the cracks
• Behind the scenes, you'll keep things moving—tracking background checks, maintaining accurate candidate data, and following up at key points so no one falls through the cracks

Requirements

• A bachelor's degree in psychology, HR, business, or marketing
• 1+ years sourcing or talent acquisition experience, ideally in a competitive or niche market
• A "figure it out" mindset — comfort building something from scratch
• Genuine curiosity about people and what draws them to meaningful work
• Confidence representing Vertin in a room, on a stage, or at a career fair booth

Why Vertin

• This work isn't just recruiting — it's finding the people who are called to serve others, the way our associates have been for over 120 years
• You'll have the autonomy to build something real, the backing of a team that values continuous improvement over perfection, and the chance to shape how the next generation of caregivers finds their way to this work
