Job Description

LHH Recruitment Solutions has partnered with a growing organization, and they are seeking a motivated Talent Acquisition Specialist (Manufacturing & Distribution) to join their team. You will own end‑to‑end recruiting and build scalable hiring programs. This is a high‑impact opportunity for a hands‑on recruiter who thrives as a team of one, enjoys autonomy, and is energized by hiring across manufacturing and commercial functions.

Why You’ll Love This Opportunity:

  • Own the full cycle: From talent sourcing to onboarding, you’ll lead every stage and see your impact immediately.
  • Dynamic mix of roles: Approximately 40% hourly manufacturing positions and 60% middle management/sales/operations roles.
  • Build & improve: Create and refine recruitment, hiring, and onboarding processes; introduce tools, metrics, and best practices.
  • Campus & early career: Lead the college recruiting program, represent the company at job fairs, and cultivate early‑career pipelines.
  • Autonomy & visibility: Operate as a trusted solo recruiter with direct access to leadership and decision makers.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead full‑cycle recruiting for 9–11 requisitions at a time: intake with hiring leaders, sourcing, screening, interviews, offer management, and onboarding.
  • Source proactively using job boards, social platforms, referrals, community partnerships, and targeted outreach; build diverse pipelines for plant and commercial teams.
  • Design and optimize processes across requisition intake, interview structure, candidate communications, assessments, and new‑hire onboarding.
  • Partner with leadership to forecast hiring needs, set quality‑of‑hire standards, and track time‑to‑fill, funnel metrics, and recruiting KPIs.
  • Manage college recruiting end‑to‑end: campus strategies, event planning, career‑fair attendance, faculty relations, intern conversion, and branding on campus.
  • Champion candidate experience with timely communication, clear expectations, and a professional selection process.
  • Ensure compliance with applicable labor laws and internal policies.
  • Strengthen employer brand through consistent messaging, compelling job posts, and community engagement.

Qualifications and Skills:

  • Bachelor’s degree required.
  • 5+ years of proven success in recruiting, hiring, and talent management; must have deep experience in full‑cycle recruiting.
  • Demonstrated ability to own requisitions end‑to‑end and deliver in manufacturing/distribution or other blue‑collar environments.
  • Comfortable managing 9–11 open requisitions simultaneously across plant and commercial functions.
  • Experience building recruitment, hiring, and onboarding processes.
  • Campus recruiting experience including job fairs and early‑career sourcing.
  • Spanish bilingual is a plus.
  • Self‑starter mindset—comfortable operating as a team of one, prioritizing, and communicating with leaders.
  • Excellent interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills; professionalism with candidates at every level.

Compensation Range: $85,000 + $110,000 + 5% Bonus

Benefits Offered: 2 weeks of vacation, paid sick leave where applicable by state law, Medical Insurance, Dental Insurance Vision Insurance, 401K, and Life Insurance.
