The Recruiting Manager is responsible for building, leading, and continuously evolving a modern recruiting function that operates as a strategic partner to the business. This role is designed for a leader who is comfortable challenging legacy recruiting models, setting higher expectations for quality and accountability, and creating a culture where recruiters are trusted advisors rather than transactional processors.

This individual will have the autonomy to shape team culture, define how recruiting excellence is measured, and introduce new ways of working that elevate both candidate and hiring leader experience.

• Lead and develop a team of recruiters with a clear expectation of ownership, accountability, and high judgment
• Redefine what “great recruiting” looks like by prioritizing candidate quality, insight, and influence over volume
• Coach recruiters to operate with an executive-level mindset, including confidence in pushing back, advising leaders, and setting expectations
• Hold the recruiting team accountable to measurable outcomes and consistent execution
• Build a recruiting culture rooted in trust, transparency, and results, where recruiters are empowered to make decisions and drive outcomes
• Challenge existing hiring practices and introduce new approaches that improve speed, quality, and consistency
• Ensure recruiters are skilled in identifying top talent, assessing capability beyond resumes, and presenting concise, high-quality candidate slates
• Establish clear standards for how recruiters engage hiring leaders, manage requisitions, and communicate progress and risk
• Create an environment where data is used to inform decisions, not just report activity
• Translate business needs into hiring strategies rather than simply reacting to open roles
• Elevate how the organization is represented in the market through thoughtful outreach, strong messaging, and authentic storytelling
• Ensure recruiters can clearly articulate why someone should join, grow, and stay with the organization
• Drive consistency in candidate experience while allowing flexibility where the business requires it
• Partner cross-functionally to remove barriers, improve processes, and scale recruiting without adding unnecessary complexity
• Identify gaps in capability, process, or structure and take ownership for fixing them rather than escalating them
• Lead through change by modeling adaptability, decisiveness, and calm execution in ambiguous environments

• 9+ years of progressive recruiting experience with demonstrated people leadership
• Prior experience in executive or retained search environments, or in-house roles that requires high-touch, consultative recruiting
• Proven success leading teams through change, growth, or transformation
• Experience recruiting senior, technical, or hard-to-fill roles in complex organizations

• Recruiters are viewed by hiring leaders as trusted advisors, not order takers
• Hiring leaders receive fewer, higher-quality candidates and make decisions faster
• The recruiting team operates with confidence, clarity, and accountability
• Recruiting processes evolve continuously rather than remaining static
• Team culture reflects ownership, high standards, and pride in craft

• Empowers teams with autonomy while holding them accountable for outcomes
• Encourages experimentation, learning, and thoughtful risk‑taking
• Sets clear expectations and addresses gaps directly and constructively
• Builds credibility through consistency,…
