Job description

A safety professional is requested Monday, placed Tuesday, and on the jobsite Wednesday. You're the reason that works.

At Evolution Safety Resources (ESR), we put experienced safety professionals directly onto construction jobsites across the country. Our people are hands-on and impactful to our clients and every one of them gets there because a recruiting process found the right person, vetted them, and set them up to win on day one.

We're looking for a Recruitment Manager to own that process end to end. If you love building order out of fast-moving priorities, being active in the recruitment process, and knowing exactly where every open role stands at any moment, this is your seat.

About ESR

ESR is a workplace safety consulting and staffing firm serving the construction industry, with offices in North Carolina and Virginia and placements nationwide. We provide safety consulting, OSHA compliance support, jobsite safety staffing, training, and legal consulting. Our work is field-grounded and relationship-driven: our clients trust us with their people's safety, and we take that personally.

The Role at a Glance

Title: Recruitment Manager
Location: ESR office, Raleigh, NC on-site 5 days a week
Type: Full-time, exempt
Reports to: HR Manager
Team: Works alongside a peer recruiter
Pace: Placements requested, filled, and started within 48 hours
Core platforms: Indeed, LinkedIn Recruiter, TeamEngine, AI recruiting tools
The Recruitment Manager is the owner of every open placement at ESR. You make sure each role moves through our SOP, that our clients see multiple qualified candidates fast, and that every contractor we place shows up on day one prepared, credentialed, and aligned with the job.

What You'll Own

Placement pipeline and SOP

• Oversee every open placement across the company, from client request through contractor start.
• Make sure each role follows ESR's recruiting SOP intake, sourcing, screening, credential checks, submittal, and approval every time, even at a 48-hour pace.
• Deliver multiple qualified, vetted candidates for client review on every open role.
• Run a daily pipeline review so you know where every role stands and what's at risk before it becomes a problem.
• Build and maintain a ready bench of pre-vetted safety professionals by region and specialty, so we're sourcing before the request lands.
• Triage shifting priorities in real time re-sequence work when an urgent request arrives without letting other roles stall.

Platforms, data, and AI

• Own and optimize ESR's third-party recruiting platforms, including Indeed, LinkedIn, and TeamEngine: job postings, budgets, sponsored listings, screening questions, and workflows.
• Monitor incoming candidate submissions and make sure every applicant is categorized, tagged, and dispositioned correctly so our talent database stays clean and searchable.
• Use AI tools to speed up sourcing, resume screening, outreach, job posting writing, and candidate communication and find new ways to give the team time back.
• Track and report recruiting metrics weekly (see How Success Is Measured), and use the data to improve what's working and fix what isn't.

Team leadership

• Lead recruitment process: set priorities, review pipelines, and give clear, regular feedback.
• Step in as a hands-on recruiter when volume spikes or a hard-to-fill role needs extra focus.
• Work side by side with your peer recruiter to divide open roles, share candidates, and keep the team's pipeline balanced. Partner with ESR's operations teams to understand upcoming demand and staffing forecasts.

Contractor onboarding and first-day success

• Personally onboard every contractor ESR places, confirming they understand the client's needs, site details, schedule, requirements, and expectations.
• Verify pre-start requirements are complete: paperwork, I-9/E-Verify, background and drug screening, certifications (such as OSHA 30/500/510, CHST, ASP/CSP, first aid/CPR), and any client-specific site requirements.
• Coordinate logistics so contractors arrive on day one knowing where to go, who to report to, and what's expected.
• Check in after day one and week one to catch issues early and keep the client relationship strong.

Process review and continuous improvement

• Systematically review recruiting and onboarding processes, update SOPs as the business evolves, and keep documentation current.
• Identify bottleneck and propose practical fixes new templates, automations, checklists, or tools.
• Ensure recruiting practices comply with employment law, EEO requirements, and ESR policy.

Who Thrives Here

ESR moves fast because our clients' jobsites don't wait. The right person for this role finds that energizing, not exhausting and brings calm structure to it.

• Process is your instinct. You build the checklist, follow it under pressure, and improve it when it breaks.
• Urgency without chaos. A same-day request doesn't rattle you. You re-prioritize, communicate clearly, and keep every other role moving.
• Organized to the detail. You know the status of every open role, every candidate, and every start date without digging for it.
• Self-motivated. You see what needs to happen and do it, without waiting to be told.
• Relationship-forward. You treat candidates, contractors, and clients like long-term partners, because in our business they are.
• Field respect. You understand that the people we place are protecting workers' lives, and you hold the standard accordingly.
• Curious about better tools. You're excited, not intimidated, by AI and automation, and you look for ways to work smarter.
• A leader who coaches. You make the people around you better and you're willing to roll up your sleeves alongside them.

We work together in our Raleigh office five days a week because this role runs on fast, in-person coordination. If you want to be in the room where it happens, you'll fit right in.
