Recruiter, Recruiter ​/ Talent Acquisition

At Guardteck Security Services, we don't just protect people and property — we build trust, one interaction at a time. We are a fast-moving, high-energy organization operating at the intersection of safety, service, and community. Our people are our greatest asset, and that belief drives everything we do. If you thrive in an environment where no two days look the same, where change is constant and pace is relentless, and where what you do genuinely matters — keep reading.
The Opportunity  We are looking for a driven, people-first  Recruiter  to join our team and help us grow our workforce with the same care, precision, and intention that we put into serving our clients. This is not a transactional order-taker role. This is a role for a talent advisor — someone who sees recruiting as a strategic lever, not just a pipeline function.
You will own the full recruiting lifecycle across both salaried professional roles and high-volume hourly positions, operating simultaneously across multiple talent segments with urgency, adaptability, and heart. You will also play a meaningful role in the onboarding experience, ensuring every new Guardteck team member starts their journey feeling welcomed, prepared, and connected to our culture and values from day one.
