Hiring Manager / Talent Acquisition Lead

About the Company: Piru Group is a rapidly expanding, vertically integrated development and construction powerhouse based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We do not operate like a standard corporate bureaucracy; we move fast, we win high-level contracts, and we execute complex projects.

Because we manage everything in-house—from pulling permits and pouring concrete to structuring multi-million dollar federal RFPs—our hiring needs are aggressive, diverse, and relentless.

The Role: We are seeking a highly proactive Hiring Manager who can aggressively source, vet, and close top-tier talent across the absolute extreme ends of the professional spectrum. You will be the central gatekeeper for our entire corporate ecosystem.

We don't need a passive HR administrator who posts on job boards and waits for resumes to roll in; we need a talent scout. On Monday, you might be at a local trade school recruiting a gritty, reliable tile setter or journeyman plumber. On Tuesday, you will be headhunting a heavy-hitting Chief Financial Officer or a Director of Capital Markets for Piru Group. You must be able to speak the language of the job site just as fluently as the language of the boardroom.

Core Responsibilities:

• Full-Spectrum Recruiting: Manage the entire hiring lifecycle for every tier of the organization.
• Diverse Placements: You will hire C-suite executives, federal grant writers, modular installers, finish carpenters, site superintendents, and property managers, etc.
• Aggressive Sourcing: Execute outbound recruiting strategies by cold-calling competitors, attending job fairs, building relationships with trade school professors, and scraping the internet to find the exact right fit.
• Ruthless Vetting: Implement strict screening protocols to ensure only highly qualified, hungry, and competent candidates make it to the executive team. No "post and pray" mentalities allowed.
• Multi-Entity Strategy: Seamlessly pivot between the distinct cultures, compliance standards, and operational requirements of Piru Group, Builders Tech NM, EcoMod Ventures, and Build4Kidz.
• Process Optimization: Overhaul and streamline our onboarding pipelines, utilizing our internal tech stacks (Monday.com) to track candidate flow and execute weekly hiring objectives.

The Ideal Candidate:

• You are a Hunter: You view recruiting as a sales job. You know how to track down passive candidates and sell them on our vision and growth trajectory.
• You are Adaptable: You are just as comfortable walking a dirty construction site to test a welder's knowledge as you are sitting in a conference room interviewing a corporate finance expert.
• You have High Standards: You have a low tolerance for fluff and excuses. You know how to strip away corporate jargon and test a candidate's actual ability to do the work.

Requirements:

• 2 years of high-level recruiting, talent acquisition, or HR leadership experience.
• Direct experience hiring in construction, real estate development, or government contracting is highly preferred.
• Proven track record of successfully placing both blue-collar skilled trades and white-collar executive leadership.
• Tech-savvy with the ability to manage complex applicant tracking systems and provide weekly data-driven hiring reports to the executive team.

Compensation & Application:

• Compensation: Highly competitive base salary performance incentives. We reward execution.
• How to Apply: Reply to this posting with your resume and a brief, direct message explaining a time you successfully hunted down a difficult-to-find candidate for a highly specialized role.
