Join Our Team as a Candidate Experience Manager!

What You Will Do:

As a Candidate Experience Manager, you'll be the driving force behind designing, implementing, and continuously improving an exceptional candidate experience across Fenton’s interview, selection, and hiring processes.

With autonomy over your process and under the mentorship of the Director of Talent Acquisition and Development, you'll thrive in this high-energy role, making a lasting impact on the organization’s growth and success.

Why You Will Love Working at H.G. Fenton:

  • Candidate Experience Management: You’ll design, implement, and continuously improve Fenton’s candidate experience across all touchpoints, ensuring a positive, consistent, and compliant experience from initial contact to onboarding.
  • Systems and Processes: You’ll shape Talent Attraction systems and processes with the goal of streamlining, automating, and standardizing Fenton’s hiring procedures, ensuring efficient and consistent workflows.
  • HGF’s Employment Brand: Trusted advisor managing our employment brand through marketing, communication, and other hiring activities, effectively meeting and engaging candidates.

 What You'll Bring:

  • Experience: Minimum of 1 year of recruiting support or equivalent experience. Customer Service and Sales Experience highly preferred.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent professional experience.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills with a proven ability to build rapport with candidates and hiring managers alike.
  • Recruitment Tools: Proficiency with Microsoft Office 365, Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), job boards, and social media platforms.
  • Proven Track Record: You’ll have a history of delivering excellent candidate experiences and achieving metrics.
  • Self-Leader: You are a self-motivated, proactive individual who takes ownership of your projects and is committed to delivering high-quality results.
  • A valid driver’s license is required as driving is an essential job function and no comparable alternative transportation options (e.g., ride-hailing, carpooling, bicycling, walking) can reasonably fulfill the role within equivalent travel time or cost.

Compensation:

The total compensation range for this position is $34/hr - $40/hr (inclusive of an annual bonus). Base pay may vary based on the candidate's knowledge, skills, and experience. Fenton’s goal is to ensure performance-based compensation that is motivating and competitive – and we adopt a pay-for-performance approach.

  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage  
  • 401(k) with company match and profit sharing  
  • Education reimbursement and sponsored training programs
