Recruiter, Texas Every day, our team members do amazing things in pursuit of our shared purpose to build trust with our clients, partners, subcontractors, and teammates. No matter your background, education, or career path, if you share our vision to create extraordinary experiences, you belong at HITT . Job Description HITT Contracting is seeking a relationship-driven and highly organized Recruiter to support talent acquisition across our Texas operations. This position is ideally based in our Dallas office, with flexibility to sit in our Houston or Austin office, and will partner closely with business leaders across the state to recruit the talent that supports one of HITT’s fastest-growing regions. The role reports to a Regional Recruiting Manager and serves as a trusted recruiting partner to operational leaders throughout Texas. As HITT continues to expand across Texas, recruiting plays a critical role in supporting business growth, project execution, and long‑term workforce planning. This role supports hiring across our Dallas, Houston, and Austin core markets, as well as project teams throughout rural Texas and other remote areas of the country aligned with Texas operations. Success requires balancing day‑to‑day hiring demands with proactive talent pipeline development across a geographically diverse and highly competitive market. This is an associate‑level recruiting role best suited for someone looking to deepen their experience within a fast‑paced, high‑performing environment. The role requires strong ownership, initiative, and sound judgment while managing full‑cycle recruiting across multiple concurrent searches.
