About the Role
Most recruiting jobs involve posting jobs, forwarding resumes, and waiting for hiring managers to make decisions.
This is not that role.
We support plumbing, HVAC, electrical, construction, and home service companies across the United States. Our clients depend on effective recruiting to keep their businesses operating and growing.
We are looking for experienced, proactive Full-Cycle Recruiters who can independently manage multiple client accounts and hiring pipelines, identify recruiting bottlenecks, communicate confidently with clients, and drive hiring outcomes.
You will be responsible for moving candidates through the entire recruiting process, from sourcing and screening to hiring recommendations and offer acceptance. You must be comfortable managing competing priorities, making informed decisions, escalating concerns, and keeping hiring processes moving without constant supervision.
Key Responsibilities
- Full-Cycle Recruiting: Manage recruiting activities from sourcing and candidate screening through hiring recommendations and offer acceptance across multiple client accounts.
- Candidate Screening & Evaluation: Conduct phone and video interviews to assess candidates' experience, qualifications, reliability, communication, and suitability for the role.
- Pipeline Management: Maintain organized recruiting pipelines, monitor candidate progress, follow up consistently, and prevent delays throughout the hiring process.
- Client Relationship Management: Serve as a recruiting partner to U.S.-based clients, providing updates, discussing hiring challenges, managing expectations, and recommending next steps.
- Hiring Recommendations: Evaluate candidate profiles, communicate strengths and concerns, and confidently recommend candidates based on job requirements and hiring priorities.
- Recruiting Funnel Analysis: Identify bottlenecks in sourcing, response rates, screening, interviews, and hiring conversions, then implement appropriate corrective actions.
- Proactive Communication & Escalation: Raise concerns early, communicate risks, address difficult conversations professionally, and recommend practical solutions.
- Multi-Requisition Management: Balance multiple active openings and client priorities while maintaining quality, responsiveness, and recruiting momentum.
- Accountability & Continuous Improvement: Follow through on commitments, incorporate feedback, and continuously improve recruiting processes and results.

Who Will Thrive in This Role?
You take ownership of recruiting outcomes, anticipate problems, communicate proactively, and know how to keep hiring processes moving. You are comfortable managing multiple priorities, challenging assumptions professionally, and working directly with clients and hiring managers.
You do not wait for someone to tell you what to do next. You identify what needs attention and take action.
Who Will Not Thrive in This Role?
This position is not suited to sourcing-only recruiters, resume forwarders, or professionals who require constant direction. Candidates who avoid difficult conversations, struggle to manage competing priorities, or fail to provide timely updates may not be successful.
