QuickHire is a fast-growing staffing firm specializing in light industrial and manufacturing placements. We focus on reliability, speed, and removing employment barriers through hands-on workforce management and transportation-enabled staffing solutions. 

Position Overview

We’re looking for a Commercial Recruiter who isn’t afraid to get out from behind a desk. This is a hybrid rolecombining on-site workforce management with in-office recruiting execution.

Translation: You’ll start your day making sure people actually show up to work… then spend the rest of your day filling the pipeline so tomorrow doesn’t fall apart.

Daily Responsibilities

On-Site (First 2 Hours of Day):

• Report to assigned client site daily
• Ensure all employees arrive on time and are properly clocked in
• Address attendance issues in real time (text/call no-shows)
• Support employees with questions or concerns
• Communicate directly with client supervisors and management
• Maintain a professional, accountable presence representing QuickHire

In-Office (Remainder of Day):

• Recruit candidates for open job orders (primarily light industrial roles)
• Manage candidate pipeline using ATS (Workable or similar)
• Conduct phone screens and schedule interviews
• Coordinate onboarding and job placements
• Partner with internal team to meet daily and weekly fill goals
• Maintain strong communication with candidates and clients

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in recruiting, staffing, or customer service preferred
• Familiarity with an ATS system (Workable experience is a plus)
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills
• Ability to work independently and stay organized in a fast-paced environment
• Reliable transportation (this is non-negotiable—you’re client-facing daily)
• Comfortable holding people accountable (this is not a “soft” role)

What Success Looks Like

• Employees show up, on time, consistently
• Client relationships stay strong and proactive
• Job orders get filled fast (speed matters here)
• You build a reliable workforce—not just fill seats

Minimum Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent (Associate’s or higher preferred)
• 1+ year of experience in staffing, recruiting, or customer-facing roles
• Experience using an ATS (such as Workable or similar) preferred
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation (daily client site travel required)

Core Competencies (Non-Negotiable)

• Attendance enforcement mindset – you’re comfortable addressing no-shows and holding people accountable
• Urgency & speed – can move candidates from application to placement quickly
• Communication skills – able to deal with candidates and client supervisors without friction
• Problem-solving – when 3 people don’t show up, you don’t panic—you pivot
• Organization – can manage multiple job orders and candidate pipelines at once

Operational Skills

• Ability to:
• Conduct phone screens and basic interviews
• Manage candidate pipelines and follow-ups
• Coordinate onboarding and job placements
• Track attendance and escalate issues in real time
• Comfortable working in both:
• Field environment (client sites)
• Office setting (recruiting + admin work)

Physical & Work Requirements

• Ability to stand/walk for extended periods while on-site
• Early morning availability for client site check-ins
• Ability to work in fast-paced manufacturing environments when needed

What Will Get You Hired Faster (Preferred)

• Staffing agency experience (light industrial = gold)
• Experience dealing with high-volume hiring
• Background in manufacturing or warehouse environments
• Bilingual (Spanish is a strong plus in this market)
