Job Details

The Contract Recruiter will play a central role in connecting job seekers with disabilities to employment opportunities across the organization's nonprofit partner network. This is a unique, relationship-driven role that blends talent acquisition with community outreach and human services coordination. The position sits within the Workforce Management function and reports to a Senior Workforce Management Partner.

This is NOT a traditional corporate recruiting role. The ideal candidate comes from a nonprofit, human services, or disability employment background, and brings a genuine passion for the mission.

Position Details:
  • Title: Contract Recruiter – National Nonprofit Association
  • Location: Chicago, IL – Hybrid (2 days/week in office)
  • Schedule: Full time; Monday–Friday
  • Contract: Open-ended with strong likelihood of extension
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Build and maintain referral relationships with nonprofit partners and community organizations to connect job seekers with disabilities to open roles
  • Share job opportunities across the National Nonprofit Association network and encourage partner participation in candidate referral efforts
  • Screen and interview candidates to assess qualifications, job fit, and support needs
  • Support candidates through applications, interview preparation, and job search navigation, proactively removing barriers to employment
  • Match qualified candidates to relevant opportunities, including AbilityOne roles, with hands-on support through background checks and documentation
  • Promote and support use of the organization's job board and related employment resources
  • Partner with internal stakeholders to understand hiring priorities, referral trends, and workforce needs
  • Track recruiting activity, referrals, and outcomes to support reporting and continuous improvement
  • Represent the organization's mission in a professional, collaborative, and service-oriented manner
QUALIFICATIONS
Preferred Background (Strongly Valued)
  • Experience in nonprofit human services, especially working directly with individuals with disabilities
  • Past roles such as Direct Service Provider (DSP), Job Coach, Vocational Counselor, or Employment Specialist
  • Strong understanding of intellectual and developmental disabilities, including autism and Down syndrome
  • Familiarity with supported employment, benefits navigation, and common employment barriers (e.g., transportation)
General Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree preferred, or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience
  • 2 - 5 years of experience in recruiting, talent acquisition, workforce development, or related field
  • Experience supporting full-cycle recruitment and candidate case management
  • Strong relationship-building, communication, and organizational skills
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office; Excel experience preferred
  • Bilingual communication skills are a plus
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
Every placement made in this role represents a meaningful employment outcome for an individual with a disability. This recruiter serves as a bridge, linking nonprofit partners, referral contacts, internal stakeholders, and job seekers in a coordinated hiring process that expands access to work for an underserved and talented segment of the workforce.

If you've spent your career in human services, disability employment, or community-based programs and are ready to bring that expertise into a talent acquisition role with real impact, this opportunity was built for you.
