Full-time

Description

This is a build phase: headcount is scaling quickly across highly technical and highly specialized roles, and the team needs a hands-on, full life cycle recruiter who can own requisitions end-to-end and move fast without sacrificing candidate quality.

Role Overview

The Senior Recruiter, Full Life Cycle (FLC) is an individual contributor role responsible for owning full-cycle recruiting on a portfolio of open requisitions spanning construction, financial, commercial, and other business functions. This person will run their own desk - intake, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer - while partnering closely with the Manager, Talent Acquisition on process and with hiring managers on role strategy.

This is a strong fit for an experienced full life cycle recruiter who has worked construction, industrial, or energy roles alongside corporate/professional roles, is comfortable sourcing directly rather than relying solely on inbound applicants, and wants to help build a recruiting function inside a fast-scaling company rather than execute inside an already-mature one.

Key Responsibilities:

Full Life Cycle Recruiting
  • Own full-cycle recruiting for an assigned portfolio of requisitions across construction, financial, commercial, and other business teams
  • Run intake meetings with hiring managers to scope role requirements, must-haves, and sourcing strategy
  • Source passive and active candidates directly using Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, referrals, and other sourcing channels
  • Screen candidates for role fit, qualifications, compensation alignment, and interest
  • Manage the candidate experience from first outreach through offer and close, including scheduling, interview logistics, and timely communication
  • Build and manage a strong, active pipeline for recurring or hard-to-fill role types

Hiring Manager Partnership
  • Act as a trusted advisor to hiring managers on market conditions, candidate availability, and realistic hiring timelines
  • Present slates of qualified candidates with clear rationale on fit
  • Guide hiring managers through structured interview and evaluation processes

Pipeline & Market Development
  • Build talent pipelines specific to the Dallas and Amarillo labor markets, including skilled trades and construction talent for Project Matador
  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date candidate and requisition records in the ATS
  • Track and report on personal recruiting metrics (time-to-fill, pipeline volume, offer acceptance rate)

Process Contribution
  • Provide feedback to the Manager, Talent Acquisition on process gaps, tooling needs, and sourcing channel performance as the TA function is built out
  • Help document repeatable playbooks for recurring role types (e.g., field construction hires, financial analysts, commercial roles)


Requirements

Required
  • 5+ years of full life cycle recruiting experience, with direct sourcing (not solely applicant-review) as a core part of the role
  • Experience recruiting across multiple functions simultaneously - ideally construction, technical, or industrial roles alongside corporate roles such as finance or commercial
  • Comfortable managing a high-volume requisition load independently with minimal oversight
  • Strong candidate communication and interview coordination skills
  • Experience with an ATS and standard sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, etc.)
  • Willingness to work across and travel between Dallas and Amarillo, TX

Preferred
  • Experience recruiting for power generation, energy infrastructure, or large-scale construction/EPC projects
  • Familiarity with skilled trades and construction labor markets in Texas
  • Experience joining a TA function during a build/scale-up phase and helping shape process along the way

What Success Looks Like
  • Consistently fills assigned requisitions within target time-to-fill without sacrificing candidate quality
  • Builds a durable, warm pipeline for recurring construction and business-function roles in Dallas and Amarillo
  • Is trusted by hiring managers as a strategic sourcing partner, not just an intake-to-schedule recruiter
  • Contributes practical process improvements as the broader TA function scales under the Manager, Talent Acquisition
