Full Job Description
Senior Recruiter - Aviation & Engineering

Department: Corporate/Administrative

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Charlotte, NC

Description

The Senior Recruiter - Aviation & Engineering is TBE's dedicated Talent Acquisition partner, owning the full recruiting function across all TBE business units. This is a full-cycle, client-facing role with broad scope: you will manage the relationship with TBE's leadership and hiring managers, drive sourcing strategy for a specialized and competitive talent market and execute against a high-volume req load of 15-20 active positions at any given time. The role requires the ability to recruit across a blended mix of seniority levels - from Entry-Level Aviation Engineers and EITs to Senior Project Managers - and a genuine understanding of how to find and engage engineering talent in a niche, relationship-driven industry.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Serve as the single TA point of contact for TBE leadership and hiring managers across all business units
  • Own req intake, kickoff, and sourcing strategy for all open TBE roles
  • Execute full-cycle recruiting: sourcing, screening, submittals, scheduling, offer support, and close
  • Build and maintain trusted relationships with TBE hiring managers at every level
  • Coordinate req prioritization and sourcing approach with the TA Manager
  • Own TBE's weekly pipeline narrative and reporting presented to TA leadership
  • Proactively source passive candidates through LinkedIn Recruiter, direct outreach, and industry networks - not just job board response
  • Maintain Pinpoint ATS hygiene - statuses, dispositions, and notes current at all times
  • Flag blockers proactively - HM responsiveness gaps, comp misalignment, req clarity issues - before they stall pipeline


Skills, Knowledge and Expertise:
  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience
  • Demonstrated ability to recruit in a specialized, technical, or niche talent market
  • Experience managing an end-to-end client or BU relationship independently
  • Proficient with LinkedIn Recruiter and sourcing tools; ATS experience required (Pinpoint or similar)
  • Comfortable carrying a high-volume req load and keeping every role moving simultaneously
  • Strong communicator - confident in HM-facing conversations, intake calls, and leadership updates
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience


Preferred:
  • Aviation and AEC recruiting experience is a significant differentiator for this role. Candidates with any of the following will stand out:
  • Direct experience recruiting aviation engineers, airport planners, or FAA-related technical roles
  • Background recruiting for AEC or aviation consulting firms - agency or in-house
  • Familiarity with aviation engineering titles and career progression (EIT, PE, Project Engineer, Senior PM, Program Manager)
  • Knowledge of the aviation consulting talent market and key firms (RS&H, HNTB, Kimley-Horn, AECOM, Delta Airport Consultants, and similar)
  • Experience sourcing passive candidates in a small, relationship-driven talent pool
  • Understanding of no-poach list navigation and competitor-aware sourcing strategies

What you'll be a part of:

TBE is a specialized firm with a strong reputation in aviation - and a TA function that is actively being built to match its growth ambitions. This role has real ownership: one firm, full scope, and a direct line to leadership. You will be the person who builds TBE's recruiting capability and helps the company hit its second-half targets in a market where the right candidate relationships are everything.

We Offer :
  • Excellent compensation package
  • Outstanding holiday and paid-time-off programs
  • 401(k) Plan and Match
  • Career Path Development Program (Management & Technical Career Tracks)
  • Mentorship Program
  • Tuition Reimbursement
  • Competitive health and dental insurance premiums
  • Variety of voluntary benefit options
  • Short-Term Disability/Long-Term Disability
  • Company-furnished life insurance
  • Employee Assistant Program (EAP)
  • Flexible Spending Account and more
