  • Talent Pipeline Management: Develop and maintain a network of qualified candidates for current and future openings.
  • Market Insight: Stay ahead of hiring trends, competitor pay rates, and workforce challenges in the local market.
  • Team Collaboration: Share best practices and contribute to a high-performing recruiting team.

  • What We’re Looking For:


    • 3 years of recruiting experience (staffing agency experience strongly preferred).
    • Proven track record filling high-volume industrial/warehouse roles.
    • Strong relationship-building skills with both candidates and clients.
    • Ability to manage multiple openings and priorities at once.
    • Problem-solver with a proactive, solutions-focused approach.
    • Comfortable working independently while collaborating closely with the team.
