Recruiting & Talent Acquisition Specialist

A&A Plumbing, Heating & Cooling
San Antonio, Texas
Full-Time | Reports to the General Manager

Build the Recruiting Engine for a Growing Home Services Company

A&A Plumbing, Heating & Cooling has the budget, the growth plan, and the opportunity to expand—but continued growth depends on hiring the right people at the right time.

Today, recruiting is handled alongside the General Manager’s day-to-day operational responsibilities. We are ready to change that.

We are looking for a Recruiting & Talent Acquisition Specialist to build and lead our recruiting function from the ground up. You will own the hiring process from beginning to end, supporting positions ranging from skilled field technicians and apprentices to office professionals and department leaders.

This is not a role where you will inherit a fully developed recruiting system. You will create it.

What You’ll Own During Your First Year

Build and Manage the Hiring Pipeline

Develop and maintain a consistent pipeline of qualified candidates to support the company’s growth goals, including:

• Plumbing and HVAC technicians
• Installers and apprentices
• Customer service and office professionals
• Accountants, marketing professionals, and other specialized roles
• Department managers and leadership-level positions

You will prioritize positions that directly affect revenue, capacity, and operational performance.

Create the Recruiting Process

Build a practical, repeatable recruiting system that includes:

• Job posting and outreach templates
• Candidate screening and interview processes
• Recruiting timelines and hiring workflows
• A sourcing strategy tailored to skilled trades, office positions, and leadership searches
• A simple applicant tracking and reporting system that gives the General Manager clear visibility into hiring activity

Source Candidates Proactively

Successful recruiting in the skilled trades requires more than posting a job and waiting for applications.

You will actively identify, contact, and build relationships with candidates through:

• Direct outreach
• Employee referrals
• Trade schools and technical programs
• Industry relationships
• Online recruiting platforms
• Community partnerships
• Professional networking

Advise the General Manager

Serve as the General Manager’s trusted resource on recruiting activity, candidate quality, and hiring risk.

You will translate the company’s growth budget into an actionable hiring plan, provide regular pipeline updates, and identify potential delays before they affect revenue or operations.

Why This Is a Career-Building Opportunity

Many recruiters spend their careers operating within a system designed by someone else. At A&A, you will have the opportunity to design the system yourself.

You will be the primary owner of recruiting across three distinct hiring areas:

• Skilled trades
• Office and administrative positions
• Leadership and professional searches

Every successful hire will have a direct impact on the company’s ability to serve customers, grow revenue, and achieve its annual goals.

This role offers broad recruiting experience and direct exposure to company leadership—experience that can be difficult to gain early in a recruiting career.

What We’re Looking For

You may be a strong fit for this position if you:

• Have experience building or significantly improving a recruiting process
• Are comfortable working independently and taking ownership of results
• Have experience managing several different types of openings at the same time
• Understand that recruiting skilled trades requires proactive sourcing and relationship-building
• Can adjust your approach when recruiting technicians, office professionals, and leadership candidates
• Communicate clearly with hiring managers and company leadership
• Are organized, responsive, and comfortable tracking recruiting activity and results
• Can identify hiring risks and recommend solutions before positions remain open too long
• Work well with minimal supervision in a fast-moving environment

How Success Will Be Measured

Success in this position will include:

• Filling priority positions within agreed-upon timelines
• Building reliable candidate pipelines for recurring field roles
• Improving candidate quality and hiring consistency
• Reducing the amount of recruiting work handled by the General Manager
• Creating clear visibility into open positions and recruiting progress
• Supporting the company’s revenue and growth goals through timely hiring
• Developing a professional candidate experience from initial contact through onboarding handoff

Ready to Build Something?

If building a recruiting function from the ground up sounds more exciting than inheriting someone else’s system, we would like to meet you.

At A&A Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, you will be trusted to lead recruiting at every level—from field technicians to the leadership team—and your work will directly influence the company’s success.
