Houston, Texas. US-wide assigned professional recruitment in procurement, sourcing, planning, materials, logistics and related supply chain functions, together with designated Solids Control portfolios. Solids Control coverage follows the agreed business and role allocation. Coordinate hourly or field-operational requirements through the TA leader’s routing decisions.

• Agree the scope and success requirements for each search, distinguishing strategic sourcing, buying, planning, inventory, logistics and operational supply chain responsibilities. For Solids Control, clarify the product, service or operational context and relevant field or technical experience.
• Research industrial, manufacturing and energy-service talent markets. Build pipelines for transferable supply chain capability and specialist Solids Control experience, and advise managers where product knowledge, location or work arrangements narrow the candidate pool.
• Screen for evidence of functional contribution, such as supplier management, planning decisions, materials availability, logistics coordination or service execution. Partner with business experts on relevant scenarios and technical assessment; distinguish direct experience from broad industry familiarity.
• Own assigned searches from intake through sourcing, assessment and offer to an explicit onboarding handover. Agree priorities and service expectations with managers, track stalled decisions and rebalance competing work with the TA leader before service is affected.
• Develop candidate relationships and manage the offer process within approved terms. Use internal talent routes and sourcing support where available, coordinate candidate and manager feedback, and maintain clear communication through the transition to onboarding partners.
• Maintain accurate Hub Recruiting records, candidate evidence and stage dates. Use approved technology and AI for agreed tasks, check outputs for accuracy and job relevance, and apply confidentiality and data-handling standards. Explain approved candidate AI-use rules and escalate concerns through designated owners.
• Use recruitment data and market feedback to improve delivery. Test agreed workflow changes, account for review effort when evaluating time saved, and use released capacity for hiring-manager advice and candidate engagement. Share useful learning with colleagues.

• Contribute selection evidence and post-hire feedback to shared quality-of-hire reviews. Help managers and HR distinguish issues in selection from onboarding, role expectations or manager support, and agree practical follow-up actions within the recruiting remit.
