About Allied Electric
Allied Electric is a rapidly growing commercial and industrial electrical contractor headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. We work across construction, service, and low-voltage markets and are building a best-in-class organization focused on craftsmanship, safety, and growth.
We are hiring aggressively in 2026 and are looking for a high-impact fractional recruiter to help us scale efficiently and reduce reliance on external recruiting firms.
The Role
We’re looking for an experienced, high-motor Fractional Recruiter to own outbound recruiting for non-apprentice electricians and key office/support roles.
This role is ideal for someone who:
- Loves direct sourcing
- Knows how to sell opportunities
- Is comfortable owning pipelines end-to-end
- Wants autonomy and real impact without a full-time commitment
What You’ll Do
- Source and screen non-apprentice electricians (journeymen, foremen, service techs, low voltage techs)
- Lead recruiting for most office and operational support roles
- Run outbound recruiting campaigns (primarily via LinkedIn & Indeed)
- Conduct initial screens and advance candidates to hiring managers
- Coordinate interviews and manage candidate pipelines
- Build recruiting assets: dashboards, outreach sequences, scorecards, playbooks
- Partner directly with hiring managers and HR
- Track and report recruiting metrics weekly
What You Won’t Do
- Apprentice recruiting
- Onboarding or HR administration
- Career fairs or trade school outreach
- Payroll, compliance, or offer processing
What Success Looks Like
- Hiring managers trust your screens
- Pipelines are visible, active, and moving
- Time-to-fill decreases materially
- External recruiter spend drops significantly
- Candidates have a professional, human experience
- Recruiting systems exist that still work when you’re offline
- Seamless hand-off between recruiting and onboarding
What We’re Looking For
- 5 years recruiting experience (skilled trades and/or operations strongly preferred)
- Proven success with outbound sourcing
- Comfortable recruiting electricians, technicians, and field-based roles
- Strong screening and stakeholder communication skills
- Organized, self-directed, and metrics-driven
- Experience with ATS systems (Paycom preferred)
- Able to work independently with minimal oversight
Nice to Have
- Experience recruiting traveling or nationwide field roles
- Experience in construction, electrical, industrial, or mechanical trades
- Experience building recruiting dashboards or playbooks
Why This Role Is Compelling
- High autonomy and ownership
- Direct impact on company growth
- Flexible schedule
- Opportunity to build systems, not just fill requisitions
- Long-term partnership potential if the fit is strong
