Senior Recruiter / Team Lead

Architecture, Engineering & Construction Recruiting

If you’re an experienced agency recruiter ready to take the next step beyond simply managing your own desk, this is an opportunity to grow into a leadership role while continuing to maximize your personal production and income.

We are seeking a Senior Recruiter / Team Lead to help drive the growth of a specialized recruiting team focused on the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. This role combines high-level recruiting responsibilities with mentorship, business development, and team development opportunities.

This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced agency recruiter who enjoys helping others succeed, wants a voice in the direction of a growing team, and is motivated by both personal performance and broader team success.

Ground-Floor Leadership Opportunity

This is a rare chance to get in early with an established and growing recruiting firm where you can help shape the future of the business instead of simply fitting into an existing corporate structure. Your effort, ideas, and performance will directly influence the growth of the division and your own long-term success.

Massive Income Potential

High-performing recruiters have the ability to earn exceptional income in this model. With uncapped commissions, leadership opportunities, team growth, and long-term expansion plans, your earning potential is far beyond what traditional recruiting firms offer.

Build Something of Your Own

Enjoy the autonomy, freedom, and entrepreneurial environment of growing a team. You’ll have the ability to create relationships, build a team, grow a market, and establish yourself as a leader within the organization.

Be Part of a Company in Growth Mode

Join a firm where growth is already happening and advancement opportunities naturally come with it. You won’t be waiting years for a title change or hoping someone leaves above you. As the company scales, so will your role, influence, and compensation.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Full Cycle Recruiting

• Recruit mid-to-senior level architecture, engineering, or construction professionals.
• Conduct proactive outreach and relationship-building with highly sought-after passive candidates.
• Manage the recruiting lifecycle including sourcing, interviewing, candidate preparation, offer negotiation, and placement coordination.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to both candidates and clients throughout the hiring process.

Team Leadership & Mentorship

• Support and mentor a small team of junior recruiters, sourcers, or recruiting coordinators.
• Share recruiting best practices, communication techniques, and sourcing strategies with team members.
• Help improve recruiting workflows, organization, and team accountability.
• Assist leadership with onboarding and training new recruiting staff.
• Lead by example through professionalism, consistency, responsiveness, and production.

Client Relationship Management

• Build strong relationships with hiring managers and industry leaders.
• Consult with clients regarding talent market conditions, hiring strategies, compensation trends, and recruiting challenges.
• Help maintain a high level of service, communication, and responsiveness with clients.

About You:

• 3+ years of agency recruiting experience, preferably within professional or technical recruiting.
• Proven ability to build strong relationships and establish trust quickly with candidates and clients.
• Strong verbal communication, organization, and follow-through skills.
• Self-motivated and highly driven with a strong work ethic of proactive outreach.
• Bonus: business development, account management, or prior team lead experience.

The Bigger Picture

This role is designed for an experienced recruiter who wants to evolve beyond being an individual contributor and begin building something. As the company continues to grow, opportunities may expand into:

• Recruiting leadership
• Team management
• Business development
• Operational leadership

If you’re looking for a long-term opportunity with a healthy company offering real, genuine uncapped income and growth, we encourage you to apply today.
