Summary

The Corporate Recruiter is responsible for full-cycle recruiting primarily across corporate/back-office functions (Finance, Accounting, HR, IT, Supply Chain, Marketing) and the full sales organization, including Sales Operations/Support, with additional support for manufacturing and engineering hiring as business needs require. This role also owns external recruiting agency/vendor relationships. Recruiting strategy and analytics under this role are scoped to the corporate, back-office, and sales functions this recruiter supports.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Full-Cycle Recruiting:

• Own end-to-end recruiting for corporate/back-office and sales roles; support manufacturing and engineering searches as needed. Approach every requisition — regardless of function or level — with the same standard of quality and urgency; this role requires genuine flexibility across very different types of searches, not a preference for one over another.

Candidate Sourcing:

• Proactively source and engage passive candidates, particularly for sales and specialized back-office roles where the market is competitive.

Candidate Experience:

• Provide consistent, timely follow-up with candidates throughout the process to ensure a strong candidate experience.

Hiring Manager Partnership:

• Communicate regularly with hiring managers and business leaders to understand hiring needs, scope roles accurately, and manage expectations on pipeline health and timelines.

Recruitment Strategy & Analytics:

• Own recruiting metrics and reporting across supported functions (time-to-fill, offer acceptance, agency spend/performance, source of hire); identify bottlenecks and recommend sourcing or process improvements; present findings and strategy recommendations to leadership.

ATS Optimization:

• Identify inefficiencies or data quality issues within the ATS (ADP Workforce Now) and recommend process improvements, workflow changes, or configuration updates to improve usability and reporting accuracy.

Vendor & Agency Management:

• Own external staffing/agency vendor relationships; manage contract terms, renewals, and fee negotiation; track vendor performance and make scale/renegotiate/exit recommendations.

Campus Partnerships:

• Develop and maintain recruiting relationships with engineering and manufacturing management degree programs at colleges and universities to support pipeline needs for corporate/back-office and engineering talent.

Social Recruiting Content:

• Create recruiting-specific social content for corporate, back-office, and sales roles to support candidate attraction, in partnership with Marketing on brand voice and channel guidelines as needed.

On-boarding Support:

• Collaborate with HR to ensure a smooth on-boarding process for selected candidates.

Confidentiality:

• Maintain strict confidentiality regarding candidate information, compensation data, and sensitive hiring matters, particularly for Finance and other sensitive back-office searches.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• Minimum of 3–6 years of full-cycle recruiting experience across a range of functions (corporate, sales, and back-office).
• Experience managing external agency/vendor relationships and contracts.
• Strong analytical skills; able to build and present recruiting dashboards across multiple functions.
• Genuine flexibility and a “no job too small or unfamiliar” mindset.
• Experience with ADP Workforce Now or a comparable ATS/HRIS platform.
• Ability to maintain strict confidentiality regarding sensitive candidate, compensation, and business information.

Preferred Skills and Qualifications

• Manufacturing or engineering recruiting experience.
• Experience identifying or implementing ATS process or configuration improvements.
• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field.

Benefits

• 401(k) with employer match
