CFS is looking for a full-desk Technology Recruiter who’s excited to blend business development, client strategy, and talent matchmaking.

Career Growth: We have a strong track record of developing recruiters into leaders, division managers, and branch management.

Culture: National reach with a small, family feel. At CFS, you’re known, supported, and valued—not just a number.
