HR Recruiting Manager
Location: Columbus, Ohio
Department: Human Resources
Employment Type: Full-Time
Salary Range: $70,000–$86,000 annually
Bonus Opportunity: 10%–20% annual performance bonus
About Fortuity
Fortuity is a Columbus-based contact center and business process outsourcing company that partners with organizations to build and manage high-performing customer service teams. Our staffing needs can move quickly—from steady-state hiring to launching large groups of employees on aggressive timelines.
We are looking for an HR Recruiting Manager who knows how to build recruiting processes that can keep up.
The Opportunity
The HR Recruiting Manager will lead Fortuity’s talent acquisition function and be accountable for delivering the people we need, when we need them.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You’ll manage the recruiting team, develop sourcing strategies, oversee high-volume hiring campaigns, improve recruiting processes, manage external recruiting partners, and personally jump into recruiting when needed.
Success in this position isn’t measured by activity. It’s measured by results: qualified candidates, filled classes, strong show rates, efficient hiring processes, and employees who are a good fit for Fortuity and our clients.
What You'll Do
Lead High-Volume Recruiting
- Own recruiting strategy and execution for Fortuity’s hourly and salaried positions.
- Develop hiring plans to meet aggressive staffing targets and client launch dates.
- Build and maintain candidate pipelines before hiring needs become urgent.
- Monitor recruiting funnels from application through offer, onboarding, and start date.
- Identify bottlenecks and make adjustments quickly when hiring results are falling behind.
- Recruit directly for key positions and high-priority hiring needs.
Manage & Develop the Recruiting Team
- Lead, coach, and develop Fortuity’s Talent Acquisition team.
- Establish clear expectations, workloads, goals, and recruiting priorities.
- Monitor recruiter performance and provide ongoing coaching and feedback.
- Create consistent recruiting practices, interview standards, and candidate communication.
- Ensure the team delivers a professional and responsive candidate experience.
Build Strong Sourcing Strategies
- Develop sourcing strategies across job boards, social media, community partnerships, employee referrals, recruiting events, and other channels.
- Determine which recruiting sources produce the strongest candidates and best hiring outcomes.
- Build relationships with workforce organizations, community partners, schools, and other talent sources.
- Develop creative approaches to reaching candidates who may not be actively applying for jobs.
- Maintain pipelines for frequently hired positions.
Manage Recruiting Partners
- Coordinate external staffing and recruiting agencies when additional hiring capacity is needed.
- Establish clear submission processes and expectations for recruiting partners.
- Monitor agency performance, candidate quality, hiring results, and costs.
- Help ensure multiple recruiting partners can work effectively without creating duplicate candidate submissions or confusion.
Own the Candidate Experience
- Ensure candidates receive timely, accurate communication throughout the hiring process.
- Oversee interviewing, candidate selection, offers, and pre-employment activities.
- Partner with HR Operations to create a smooth transition from candidate to new employee.
- Monitor offer acceptance, pre-employment completion, Day 1 attendance, and early attrition.
- Identify why candidates are dropping out of the process and develop solutions.
Use Data to Drive Results
Recruiting at Fortuity should be measurable. You'll establish and monitor metrics such as:
- Applicants and qualified candidates
- Interview and selection rates
- Time-to-fill and time-to-hire
- Offer acceptance rate
- Candidate conversion rates
- Recruiting source effectiveness
- Cost-per-hire
- New-hire show rate
- Early employee retention
- Recruiting partner performance
You'll use this information to determine what's working, what isn't, and where we need to change our approach.
Partner With the Business
- Work closely with HR and Operations leadership to forecast hiring needs.
- Translate client staffing requirements into actionable recruiting plans.
- Provide leadership with clear updates on hiring progress, risks, and projected staffing.
- Understand the skills and behaviors that make employees successful in Fortuity's contact center environment.
- Help hiring managers make effective, consistent, and timely selection decisions.
What We're Looking For
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of recruiting or talent acquisition experience.
- 2+ years of experience leading recruiters or a talent acquisition function.
- Demonstrated experience managing high-volume recruiting.
- Experience developing sourcing strategies and candidate pipelines.
- Strong understanding of recruiting funnels, metrics, and hiring analytics.
- Experience with applicant tracking systems and recruiting technology.
- Strong leadership, communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to manage multiple hiring priorities and deadlines simultaneously.
- Comfortable working in an environment where staffing needs and priorities can change quickly.
Preferred Qualifications
- Recruiting experience within a contact center, BPO, staffing, customer service, hospitality, retail, healthcare, or other high-volume hourly environment.
- Experience managing large hiring classes or rapid workforce expansions.
- Experience working with external recruiting and staffing agencies.
- Experience with Paycor or similar HR/recruiting platforms.
- Experience recruiting for government contracts or positions with significant pre-employment screening requirements.
- Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
Who Will Thrive in This Role
You'll likely be successful here if you're someone who:
- Loves recruiting but also loves building better recruiting systems.
- Can move between strategy and execution without hesitation.
- Doesn't wait until a hiring deadline is in trouble to raise a concern.
- Uses numbers to understand recruiting performance rather than relying solely on intuition.
- Holds yourself and your team accountable for results.
- Can create structure in a fast-moving environment.
- Builds strong relationships with candidates, recruiters, hiring managers, and community partners.
- Understands that filling a position isn't enough—the person also needs to show up and succeed.
Compensation
The salary range for this position is $70,000–$86,000 annually, depending on experience, qualifications, and demonstrated recruiting leadership capabilities.
The position is also eligible for a 10%–20% annual performance bonus, based on individual and company performance and achievement of established goals.
Why Fortuity?
This is an opportunity to have a meaningful impact on both our company and our community. You'll have the ability to shape how Fortuity attracts talent, builds candidate pipelines, develops recruiting partnerships, and scales our workforce as new client programs launch.
We're looking for someone who wants to own the recruiting function, not simply maintain it.
Fortuity is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Human Resources Jobs in Ohio: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a human resources professional in Ohio?
Ohio does not require a state-issued license to work in human resources, so entry typically begins with a bachelor's degree in HR, business, or a related field from an Ohio university or community college. Most employers expect or prefer a professional certification such as the SHRM-CP or PHR. Gaining experience through internships with Ohio-based manufacturers, hospital systems, or corporate headquarters strengthens a candidate's profile considerably before applying to full-time roles.
Which companies hire human resources professionals in Ohio?
Companies currently hiring human resources professionals in Ohio include Eaton, Target, and Saber Healthcare, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Ohio's concentration of Fortune 500 headquarters, major health systems, and large manufacturing operations means demand for HR talent remains broad and consistent across industries.
Which Ohio cities have the most human resources jobs?
Columbus, Cincinnati, and Cleveland have the most human resources openings in Ohio. Columbus dominates because of its dense cluster of insurance and financial services headquarters, while Cleveland's large health systems and manufacturing base drive demand there, and Cincinnati benefits from the presence of consumer goods and retail corporate offices concentrated in the region.
Are there remote human resources jobs in Ohio?
Yes, and more than many fields. About 33% of human resources openings tied to Ohio are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how much of the work involves documentation, policy management, and digital communication. Roles in talent acquisition, HR operations, and HRIS administration are the most likely to offer fully remote or hybrid schedules.
How can I get hired as a human resources professional in Ohio with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an HR coordinator or HR assistant role, which large Ohio employers such as hospital systems, state government agencies, and manufacturing companies post regularly for candidates without extensive experience. Ohio State University, University of Cincinnati, and other state schools offer HR internship pipelines that frequently convert to full-time offers. Candidates moving laterally from payroll, office administration, or customer service roles often find the transition straightforward, and earning a SHRM student membership or SHRM-CP certification while still in school noticeably improves hiring odds.
