Recruiter

Company Overview:

At Kelaca, we're not your typical recruiting firm-and we're proud of it. We're on a mission to Redefine the Recruiting Experience because, frankly, the industry needs it. Too many recruiters treat candidates and clients like transactions. Not us. We believe relationships matter, the experience matters, and how you get results are just as important as the results themselves.

We are a full-service Recruiting Solutions firm delivering tailored strategies in Recruiting & Retention , Executive Search , End-to-End Recruitment Management ,and Global Expansion . Our focus? Blending AI-powered efficiency with a culture-first, human-driven approach to help organizations stay ahead.

Our secret sauce? It starts with our Core Values ( K . E . L . A . C . A .) that shape how we show up for our clients, candidates, and each other:

Kindness : We believe in following the Platinum Rule, treating our clients, candidates & teammates as we would want to be treated, with kindness, fairness, respect & integrity.

Enthusiasm : We believe in creating an enthusiastic & exceptional experience for our clients, candidates & teammates with every opportunity and having a positive attitude about our daily actions.

Learning : We believe in constant learning, being creative and taking initiative as it comes to our process, our service offerings and ultimately our personal growth & development.

Accountability : We believe in holding ourselves & each other accountable to our Core Values, our individual & team responsibilities, our service levels & results with our clients, our communities and the growth & development of our teammates and Kelaca overall.

Collaboration : We believe in working together selflessly to constantly deliver on the bigger picture for our clients, candidates and our teammates, always putting the company and our partners ahead of ourselves, committed to being exceptional in our industry.

Above & Beyond : We believe in going above & beyond with every opportunity & interaction with our clients, candidates & teammates, constantly working to improve and far exceed our partners' expectations.

We treat our clients like true partners, sitting shoulder-to-shoulder at their leadership tables to understand their goals, values, culture, and unique needs. We treat our candidates with the same care and respect-because when they win, we all win.

Unlike niche recruiters who stay in one lane, Kelaca's niche is our client. We match the right candidates across six specialized divisions: Technology , Engineering , Life Sciences & Biotech , Healthcare , Manufacturing , and Government & Defense .

We support multiple hiring models (contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire) and can deploy embedded or customized recruitment solutions when growth or expansion calls for it.

Founded in Raleigh-Durham in 2012, we're growing fast, expanding into new markets, and looking for game-changers to join us.
