Most recruiting leadership roles are reporting and supervision.
This is not that.
This role is for a recruiter who has already proven they can deliver results and is ready to lead other recruiters to do the same. The companies we support are plumbers, HVAC companies, electricians, and construction businesses across the United States. When they cannot hire, revenue stops.
This leader is responsible for both outcomes and standards. You will still understand recruiting deeply enough to diagnose problems, but your primary job is to raise the performance of the recruiting team.
Our recruiters must instill confidence with clients. Skilled trades owners are busy operators running real businesses. They do not need someone passively collecting resumes. They need a recruiting team that understands their labor market, understands their business pressures, and can guide the hiring process with authority.
As the Recruiting Team Leader, you set that standard.
Authority is earned by proving we understand client needs, sometimes better than they do. The best leaders here anticipate problems, correct weak recruiting practices, and ensure the team moves hiring processes forward without waiting to be told what to do.
If you are someone who avoids difficult conversations or hesitates to hold people accountable for performance, this role will frustrate you. If you like improving people, sharpening recruiting standards, and driving hiring outcomes across multiple clients, you will do well here.
We are not building a team of job order takers. We are building a team of recruiters who take responsibility for the hiring outcome.
What We Value In This Role
Ownership and accountability
You take responsibility for team performance. When hiring slows down across the team, you diagnose the breakdown and adjust the approach. You do not wait for direction.
Recruiting mastery
You must be a strong recruiter yourself. Leaders here earn credibility because they understand sourcing, screening, candidate evaluation, and recruiting funnels. You know what great recruiting looks like and can coach others to execute it.
Coaching and talent development
Your job is to raise the performance of the recruiting team. That requires structured feedback, clear expectations, and consistent coaching. You are comfortable correcting mistakes and helping recruiters improve quickly.
Critical thinking
You understand recruiting as a funnel and can diagnose breakdowns across multiple roles and clients. Candidate volume, candidate quality, response time, interview speed, offer competitiveness, and follow-up discipline all affect outcomes.
Relentless coachability
Leadership here still requires learning. You must be open to feedback, willing to refine your leadership approach, and committed to getting better at developing people and running recruiting operations.
Commitment to the client outcome
Our clients rely on us to help them hire people who keep their businesses running. You ensure the recruiting team operates with urgency, discipline, and a focus on real hiring results.
Technology competence
Our work runs through systems. Slack, HubSpot, Recruitee, Google Workspace, and AI tools are part of daily operations. You must be comfortable monitoring team activity and maintaining visibility across recruiting pipelines.
What You Will Do
Recruiter leadership and coaching
Lead, mentor, and develop a team of recruiters responsible for skilled trades hiring across multiple clients.
Performance management
Track recruiting performance, identify gaps, and coach recruiters to improve sourcing, screening, and candidate quality.
