ETS Workforce Solutions is a high-touch, high-impact staffing partner powering manufacturing and skilled trades operations across the U.S. We're scaling our national team fast,
and we want you to join us as a Skilled Trades Recruiter for National Accounts.

Your day-to-day as a Skilled Trades Recruiter:

• Source, screen, and place high-volume skilled trades and industrial talent (HVAC, electricians, maintenance techs, construction, production operators, machinists) across multiple states simultaneously
• Launch new hiring programs for national accounts fast, ramp up, hit targets, and be ready to pivot to the next account or geography without missing a beat
• Build deep, market-specific candidate pipelines using AI sourcing tools, job boards, social media, cold/warm outreach, and creative campaigns
• Manage candidates through the full talent lifecycle from outreach through screening, interview prep, placement, and retention check-ins
• Negotiate pay rates, close placements, overcome objections, and resolve issues with speed and precision
• Own and manage client relationships remotely through video calls, Slack, email, and phone
• Proactively evaluate client needs using data and market feedback and adjust recruiting strategies before shifts happen
• Present client-ready candidates directly to hiring managers and ETS account leadership with compelling, well-prepared submittals
• Travel to client sites as needed to strengthen relationships and deepen your understanding of their operations
• Hit weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual targets for outreach volume, screenings, submittals, placements, revenue, and quality KPIs
• Master the ETS tech stack including Bullhorn CRM, AI platforms, communication tools, and Google Workspace

Your skills and experience:

• Bachelor's degree preferred but not required. New grads encouraged to apply
• 1-2+ years in a sales-driven environment preferred, but raw talent and drive matter more than a long resume
• Self-motivated, competitive, and comfortable working independently and managing your own time and pipeline
• Strong digital communication and remote relationship-management skills
• Demonstrated ability to use AI tools and social media as part of a recruiting or sales strategy
• Organized under pressure with the ability to manage multiple accounts, states, and shifting priorities simultaneously
• Motivated by a commission-based compensation structure with uncapped earning potential
• Willing to travel occasionally as account needs grow

What you can expect from ETS:

• Base salary of $50,000-$60,000 plus aggressive commission structure with no ceiling
• Team bonuses, paid time off, group health, life, and disability insurance
• 401(k) with 5% match
• Best-in-class training, Bullhorn CRM, AI-powered recruiting tools, and technology infrastructure built for remote performance
• Career advancement opportunities across ETS locations in Plattsburgh, Troy, and Vermont, plus a growing national footprint
