About Telvero

Telvero is a boutique talent acquisition firm supporting telecom, data center, construction, facilities, and industrial industries. We deliver a high-touch, relationship-driven recruiting experience built on trust, responsiveness, and long-term partnerships.

We are a collaborative, team-first organization that values accountability, professionalism, and mutual respect. Team members step in where needed and work toward shared results. This role begins as a contract-to-hire opportunity because long-term alignment is important to us.

Although this position offers flexibility, candidates must be based in the Grand Rapids Metro area. Our team stays highly connected through Microsoft Teams, with regular communication, video meetings, and ongoing collaboration. Comfort with consistent virtual engagement is essential.

Our Culture

You may thrive here if you:

• Take pride in helping others and contributing to shared success
• Pay close attention to detail and care about accuracy
• Are known for being responsive and dependable
• Are comfortable participating in video-based meetings and collaborative virtual work

This environment may not be the right fit if you prefer narrowly defined responsibilities or minimal collaboration.
