Job description

This is a fast-paced recruiting role that requires consistent daily activity, strong follow-through, relationship building, and the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously. A significant portion of the day will be spent making calls, conducting follow-ups, sourcing candidates, building and maintaining relationships, and moving candidates through the recruitment process.

Ideal candidate must prioritize quality over quantity when building a candidate pipeline. This is relationship-driven, long-term pipeline-building work—not high-volume requisition churning. The successful Recruiter is highly self-motivated, organized, persistent, and goal-oriented. This role requires someone who proactively manages their pipeline, consistently follows up, maintains accurate and detailed records, and takes ownership of moving opportunities forward rather than waiting for candidates or clients to respond. The ideal candidate should have:

• 2–5 years of healthcare recruiting experience, preferably in interim healthcare leadership, executive search, physician locum tenens, or nurse staffing.


• Experience recruiting healthcare executives and leaders, with the ability to communicate professionally and confidently with C-suite and senior-level healthcare professionals.


• Demonstrated experience with high-volume outbound recruiting, including frequent calls, texts, emails, sourcing, and candidate follow-up.


• A proven ability to build and maintain strong candidate relationships and develop a pipeline of qualified healthcare professionals.


• Strong follow-up, negotiation, and closing skills, with the persistence to engage candidates through the entire recruitment process.


• Ability to manage multiple open positions, candidates, and competing priorities while maintaining accuracy and organization.


• A strong work ethic and self-motivation, with the ability to consistently execute daily recruiting activity and follow-up without close supervision.


• A goal-oriented, results-driven mindset with motivation to meet activity, placement, and revenue goals.


• Strong communication, interpersonal, relationship-building, and negotiation skills.


• Experience working in a recruiting CRM/ATS and maintaining accurate candidate and recruiting data.


• Strong attention to detail when reviewing resumes, references, credentials, employment history, compensation, and candidate submissions.


• Ability to work effectively in a remote environment, maintaining consistent productivity, communication, and professionalism.


• Comfort working in an environment with changing priorities, time-sensitive opportunities, and the urgency associated with healthcare interim executive recruiting.


• A genuine interest in building long-term candidate relationships, not simply filling individual job openings.


• Bachelor’s degree preferred, but relevant healthcare recruiting experience will be considered.

Pay Range: $52k - $57k annually + bonus. Base salary depending on experience, education.

Candidates are required to provide a reliable internet connection, phone service, and establish a dedicated, professional, and quiet workspace within their residence.
