Location: Amherst/Buffalo, NY Area
Compensation: $18-$20/hour (W2)
Schedule: Flexible hours available; typically Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM-5:00 PM

We are seeking a highly motivated, relationship-driven Recruiter to help scale hiring efforts for sales and customer service positions throughout the Buffalo/Amherst area.

This is NOT a "post jobs and wait" recruiting role. We are looking for a true go-getter, someone who thrives on networking, building partnerships, creating pipelines, and finding talent through every possible local channel.

    • Career centers
    • Job boards
    • Staffing networks
    • Colleges and training programs
  • Attend local hiring events and networking opportunities when needed
  • Develop creative grassroots recruiting strategies
  • Screen candidates and coordinate interviews
  • Maintain active candidate pipelines and follow-up communication
  • Help improve hiring speed and applicant flow
What We're Looking For
  • Recruiting, staffing, or talent acquisition experience preferred
  • Experience with high-volume hiring is a major plus
  • Strong communication and networking skills
  • Someone who is proactive, resourceful, and persistent
  • Comfortable making outreach calls and building local partnerships
  • Organized and able to manage multiple hiring priorities
  • Familiarity with Buffalo-area workforce resources is highly desirable
Ideal Candidate
You're the type of person who:
  • Doesn't wait for applicants to come in
  • Knows how to generate leads and candidate flow
  • Can build relationships quickly
  • Enjoys connecting with people and community organizations
  • Takes ownership and gets results
What We Offer
  • W2 employment
  • Flexible scheduling options
  • Opportunity to make a direct impact on company growth
  • Fast-paced, team-oriented environment
  • Potential for growth as hiring operations expand
If you are a motivated recruiter who knows how to create hiring momentum and build strong local recruiting pipelines, we'd love to hear from you.
