ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY

We're hiring a Recruiter / Sourcer (6-Month Fixed-Term) to help our Talent Acquisition team meet increased hiring demand. We're looking for an experienced, resourceful recruiting professional who can step in quickly, independently drive recruiting work forward, and deliver results across both full-cycle recruiting and proactive sourcing.

In this hybrid role, you'll flex between independently managing assigned searches from intake through accepted offer and partnering with other recruiters to drive sourcing and recruiting workstreams for priority openings. Whether you're owning a requisition or contributing to another recruiter's search, you'll have the autonomy to determine effective approaches, make informed decisions, and take accountability for delivering strong candidate pipelines and maintaining hiring momentum.

This is a six-month opportunity for someone who thrives on finding great talent, brings creativity and persistence to sourcing, and can confidently navigate competing priorities and recruiting challenges. You'll collaborate closely with hiring managers and recruiting teammates, using sound judgment and practical problem-solving to deliver high-quality results without sacrificing the candidate experience.

This is a remote position requiring candidates to reside within an eligible onX Basecamp region in the Pacific or Mountain time zones.

• Partner with other recruiters to independently own sourcing and other defined recruiting workstreams for priority searches, applying judgment and driving results without requiring day-to-day direction
• Balance ownership of multiple requisitions with sourcing, screening, coordination, and other recruiting responsibilities across additional searches, adapting priorities to meet hiring needs
• Proactively identify and resolve recruiting challenges, including pipeline gaps, unclear requirements, scheduling complexities, and process bottlenecks, escalating when broader decisions or stakeholder alignment are needed

• Share talent market insights, pipeline data, and candidate feedback to help hiring teams make informed decisions and adjust recruiting approaches when needed
• Navigate differing perspectives constructively, asking thoughtful questions and challenging assumptions when necessary to maintain alignment and hiring momentum
• Communicate proactively with candidates and hiring teams, managing expectations, coordinating next steps, and maintaining a consistent, high-quality recruiting experience

Use Tools, Data, and AI to Improve Effectiveness

• Use modern applicant tracking systems, sourcing tools, and market research to manage recruiting workflows, maintain accurate candidate information, and support effective recruiting decisions
• Apply AI tools to improve candidate research, sourcing, outreach, and recruiting efficiency while exercising judgment and validating outputs
• Monitor recruiting activity and pipeline performance to identify challenges, evaluate effectiveness, and adjust approaches
• Identify opportunities to improve sourcing techniques, workflows, or candidate engagement, and collaborate with teammates to implement practical solutions
