Job Description

Location: Remote - U.S. (candidate will have the flexibility to work a from their home office but must reside within the eastern time zone)
Schedule: Full-time, Exempt | Report to local ORC office as requested

We9re hiring a Talent Acquisition Manager to lead our recruiting team and run the day-to-day engine of how ORC finds, attracts, and hires talent in one of the most specialized markets in professional services.

This is a manager role, not a requisition desk. You won9t carry a standing req load or be measured on personal placements - your job is to lead the team and run the engine: develop a team of full lifecycle recruiters into a high-performing unit, operationalize workforce planning with our operational leaders, and execute the sourcing and automation strategies that let a lean team punch above its weight. But make no mistake: we need a working leader, not a delegator. You9ll stay close to the work - unblocking stalled searches, covering when a teammate is out, and modeling the craft you expect from your team.

You9ll report directly to the VP of People & Organizational Development, who sets ORC9s people and talent strategy - you9ll be her key partner in bringing the existing strategy for talent acquisition to life, with real ownership of how the team, the process, and the pipelines get built. You9ll be measured on whether your team performs, whether the business trusts talent acquisition as a real partner, and whether ORC has pipelines ready before the business needs them.

What We Offer
  • Competitive base pay: $125,000 -$145,000
  • Bonus eligible
  • Health, dental, and vision benefits
  • 401(k) with company match and disability coverage
  • Paid time off, sick time, and holidays
  • Tuition reimbursement and professional training
  • Recognition programs and growth opportunities
  • ClassPass and Breethe Memberships

What You9ll Do
  • Lead the team. Manage a team of full lifecycle recruiters - performance, coaching, development, and workload - and raise the bar on sourcing craft, candidate experience, and hiring manager partnership. Step in when the team needs you: covering a desk, unblocking a stuck search, or working a critical role alongside them.
  • Build partnerships. Build genuine working relationships with operational leadership across the business. You9ll be the connective tissue between what the business needs and what recruiting delivers.
  • Run workforce planning. Work with the VP of People & OD and HRBP to turn workforce forecasts into recruiting capacity plans and proactive pipelines - staying ahead of demand, not reacting to it.
  • Get creative in a niche market. Right-of-way talent doesn9t come from job boards. You9ll build and run creative pipeline strategies for niche and hard-to-find talent - and make them repeatable.
  • Run the ATS. Own day-to-day administration of Pinpoint, our ATS - driving adoption, enablement, workflow automation, and data integrity across the recruiting team and hiring managers.
  • Work smarter. Use AI tools and automation to reduce manual recruiter workload, and own recruiting metrics - pipeline health, time-to-fill, source effectiveness, cost-per-hire, and quality of hire.

We9re Looking for Someone Who
  • Works efficiently and effectively under tight deadlines
  • Can prioritize and balance multiple tasks
  • Demonstrates strong organization and planning skills
  • Is analytical, detail-oriented, and eager to learn
  • Has excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Thrives in a fast-paced setting
  • Provides strong customer service experience
  • Can adapt to new systems and software environments

Minimum Requirements
  • Minimum of (6) six years of progressive full-cycle recruiting experience, including 3+ years directly managing recruiters (hiring, developing, and performance-managing a team - not just mentoring).
  • Full-cycle recruiting craft strong enough to coach from - and to step into when your team needs coverage or a search stalls.
  • Workforce planning experience: you9ve translated business forecasts into hiring plans and built pipelines ahead of demand.
  • Demonstrated creativity filling roles in niche, specialized, or talent-constrained industries.
  • Experience owning or administering an ATS, including driving adoption and enablement during a rollout or migration. Pinpoint experience is a plus - not a requirement.
  • Fluency with AI and automation in recruiting workflows.
  • A collaborative, low-ego working style. You welcome feedback and coaching, give honest input, and lead through influence.
  • Must be proficient with MS Office Suite specifically Excel and Word, Dropbox or equivalent
  • Must have an iOS or Android smartphone to be able to access ORC9s systems
  • Valid Driver9s License

What Sets You Apart
  • Experience in a PE-backed or high growth company with clear value creation goals.
  • Exposure to professional services, infrastructure, real estate, AEC or adjacent industries.
  • Experience building early-career or partnership-driven talent pipelines (university relations, credentialing programs, training academies).
