Job description

We are a purpose-driven organization where support teams directly impact our ability to change the lives of the people and communities we serve. Throughout our US network and global family, our services span workforce and employment, education and training, and community support.

This is an opportunity for a proactive talent professional who thrives in change, builds trust quickly, and knows how to turn complex hiring needs into smart, actionable talent strategies.

You’ll lead full-cycle recruitment primarily across Human Resources and Finance, while flexing across other corporate functions within our Workforce and Occupational Health businesses as business needs evolve. You’ll partner closely with leaders across multiple regions and brands, build proactive talent pipelines, and deliver an exceptional experience from initial intake through hire.

Strong ATS expertise is essential, with SmartRecruiters experience strongly preferred. Knowledge of acquisitions, contract-based work, and local projects is also highly valued.

If you’re energized by transformation, motivated by measurable results, and ready to help shape a modern, scalable talent acquisition function across the nation, this could be your next opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

• Use recruiting metrics, KPIs, and market data to identify trends, measure effectiveness, strengthen decision-making, and continuously improve recruiting outcomes.
• Navigate evolving priorities with agility, helping leaders and teammates move confidently through change while championing scalable, forward-looking practices.
• Collaborate across Talent Acquisition and Human Resources on employer branding, employee referrals, talent initiatives, process improvements, and inclusive recruiting practices.
• Support recruiting needs associated with acquisitions, contracts, and local projects, adapting quickly to new business requirements and stakeholder groups.
• Ensure recruiting practices align with organizational policies and applicable employment laws, regulations, and compliance requirements.
• Step into new priorities as needed with flexibility, curiosity, and a team-first mindset.
