Talent Acquisition Specialist

$60k - $80k

Impact Networking

Description

Built on service. Powered by people.


Impact exists because a small group of industry leaders believed companies in our space were doing it wrong. Many prioritized margins while the people doing the work and the clients relying on it became an afterthought. Impact was built differently: invest in great people, trust them to do great work, and deliver the kind of service clients remember. That approach helped us grow from a small office technology company into a national managed services provider, while remaining privately owned and people-first.

What makes Impact special is that growth has never come at the expense of the values that got us here. We continue to reinvest in our people, our capabilities, and the opportunities ahead so employees can grow alongside the business. We've built something special, but we're far from finished. The people who join Impact now will help define what comes next.


Job Overview

The Talent Consultant is responsible for full-cycle recruiting across Impact, partnering with hiring leaders to identify, engage, assess, and hire talent for assigned business areas. This role owns the recruiting process from intake through offer acceptance while delivering a high-quality candidate experience, maintaining strong ATS discipline, and helping hiring teams make thoughtful, consistent hiring decisions.


Our North Star: Client Centricity


Responsibilities

  • Own full-cycle recruiting for assigned roles, including intake, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, candidate feedback, offer support, and transition to onboarding
  • Partner with hiring managers to clarify role requirements, define candidate profiles, understand team needs, and align on recruiting strategy before opening or advancing searches
  • Build and maintain active and passive candidate pipelines through LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, networking, talent communities, and other recruiting tools
  • Conduct candidate screens that assess skills, motivation, alignment to role expectations, compensation fit, and overall potential for success at Impact
  • Deliver a clear, responsive, and professional candidate experience through timely communication, thoughtful follow-up, and accurate expectation-setting throughout the process
  • Prepare hiring managers for interviews by providing relevant candidate context, alignment notes, potential concerns, and clear next-step recommendations
  • Manage offer discussions in partnership with Talent Acquisition leadership and hiring managers, ensuring alignment with compensation guidelines and organizational needs
  • Maintain accurate, timely, and complete ATS records, including candidate notes, disposition reasons, workflow movement, interview activity, and reporting-related data
  • Track recruiting activity and hiring progress to support visibility into pipeline health, time-to-fill, sourcing effectiveness, candidate quality, and hiring manager experience
  • Develop working knowledge of Impact business units, role families, market dynamics, compensation trends, and talent availability to improve recruiting recommendations
  • Represent Impact's values, culture, and employment brand accurately and authentically in candidate conversations and stakeholder partnerships
  • Support continuous improvement of recruiting processes, interview workflows, candidate communications, templates, and team operating standards
Qualifications & Experience
  • Previous recruiting, sourcing, staffing, talent acquisition, or related candidate-facing experience required; level placement may vary based on demonstrated capability and organizational need
  • Ability to manage multiple requisitions, shifting priorities, and stakeholder expectations in a fast-paced recruiting environment
  • Strong sourcing skills with the ability to identify, engage, and evaluate active and passive talent across multiple channels
  • Clear verbal and written communication skills with the ability to build trust with candidates, hiring managers, and internal partners
  • Strong attention to detail and comfort maintaining accurate ATS records, candidate notes, interview activity, and workflow documentation
  • Ability to assess candidate alignment beyond resume keywords by understanding role expectations, motivations, experience quality, and potential fit
  • Working knowledge of recruiting tools such as ATS platforms, LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, sourcing tools, and Microsoft Office applications
  • Ability to understand business context, role requirements, compensation considerations, and market conditions when advising hiring teams
  • Demonstrated accountability, professionalism, curiosity, coachability, and commitment to a positive candidate and hiring manager experience
  • Bachelor's degree preferred, or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience

What Drives Impact

Our purpose is people. We empower them to innovate, grow, and succeed. That's how we change the world - one person, one company, one community at a time.

Behaviors define what our values look like in action. Leaders are expected to model them; teams are expected to live them:
  • Innovation : We embrace change because innovation lives outside the comfort zone.
  • Passion : We are driven by purpose, fueled by passion, and obsessed with making an impact.
  • Honesty : We are fiercely transparent and consistently honest.
  • Fun : We fuel work with fun, knowing life's too short for boring.
  • Low Ego : We champion ideas over titles, because brilliance knows no rank.
  • One Team : We win as a team, we lose as a team, we are one team.
Compensation The typical base salary for this role is $60,000-$80,000. Actual compensation packages are based on several factors that are unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skillset, experience and training, licensures and/or certifications, and other organizational needs.


Impact may offer applicable incentive compensation plans depending on role and/or department.


Full compensation details can be discussed with an Impact Talent Acquisition team member at the start of the interview process.


Benefits We Take Pride In
  • 5-year Tiffany & Co. Gift Card, 10-year Custom Rolex, 20-year $20,000 Check incentive rewards
  • Valuable time off with up to 20 days of PTO, 7 Paid Sick Days, 12+ paid holidays, and Paid Parental Leave
  • Development and growth opportunities with on-going training & continued education reimbursement
  • 401(K) & retirement plans with complimentary financial advisory services
  • Comprehensive health, disability, life, dental, and vision plans
