About Us:

At WashU, our mission is to be our community's preferred car wash brand by obsessively pursuing excellence in all things. We take pride in maintaining high standards and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Our core values guide our approach to business and customer service: a strive-not-arrived attitude, the belief that good enough is not good enough, the importance of healthy communication rooted in respect, reliance on data-driven decision-making, and embracing a lean mindset.

About the Role:

We are looking for our first dedicated Recruiter to own hiring for frontline and site-level roles across all of our locations in Illinois and Tennessee. Reporting into the Director of HR, the Recruiter will own the hiring process end-to-end - from posting the job to extending the offer - while General Managers retain the final interview and hire decision at their site.

• Partner with GMs to understand site-specific hiring needs and timelines
• Extend offers and complete onboarding paperwork, handing off cleanly to HR
• Route candidates to the right location when fit or availability shifts across sites
• Track and report on key metrics, including time-to-fill, 90-day retention, and GM satisfaction
• Build and maintain a values-based screening rubric in partnership with HR and site leadership
• Provide regular feedback loops with GMs after each hiring cycle to continuously improve the process
• Identify and support continuous improvement initiatives within the hiring process as the company scales

Key Requirements:

Required:

• 3+ years of experience in recruiting or talent acquisition, ideally in multi-site, hourly, or high-volume hiring environments
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to build trust quickly with both candidates and operational leaders

Preferred:

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, or other related field
• Experience with applicant tracking systems and recruiting tools, including BreezyHR
