Recruiter - Manufacturing Recruiting

This is a business you own, not a job we're filling. Goodwin Recruiting partners are independent business owners who build and run their own recruiting practices on Goodwin's platform. Goodwin funds the tools, the training, and the infrastructure. No recruiting experience required, and we mean it: some of our highest billers never recruited before Goodwin.
Built for manufacturing operations leaders. You've hired for the floor, the line, and the front office: supervisors, skilled trades, engineers, plant leadership. You know what an open supervisor seat costs a shift, because you've covered it. You've just never owned the business that does the hiring. Recruiting has two halves: knowing the work, and finding the people. You've done both for years. And you're not selling: you're helping people you understand find work you understand. Goodwin teaches the rest. One in three active partners came from operations, the most proven path in the network.

The model, stated plainly. This is a 100% commission business. You keep roughly half of everything you bill, with no cap. Your income potential is unlimited . You'd be self-employed, what the IRS calls a 1099 independent contractor: no W-2, no withholding. No salary. No benefits. You own the outcome, and the upside.

What Goodwin funds:
A full LinkedIn Recruiter RPS+ seat with 140 InMails a month
Training, mentorship, and a partner community of 300+
The recruiting tech platform and marketing support
Billing, collections, and the administrative back office

Fair question: is this legit? Yes. No buy-in. No inventory. No downline. You earn when clients hire the people you place. Goodwin Recruiting was founded by Eric Goodwin in 1999 and has been built on relationships and integrity for 27 years, with more than 300 active partners.

On hearing another partner's story before he joined:
"Honestly, after hearing Vince's story, I was like, 'Ok your experience is a lot like mine'. When he shared that he was earning more as a recruiter vs Operations and that he was now able to spend time at his daughter's events, I said, 'Well, I want to do that!' I am so glad that I made the decision, the best professional decision I have ever made." Rogers Hornsby, Partner, Hospitality Operations, 4 years

Who does well here:
Plant managers, operations and production leaders, quality and maintenance managers, and skilled-trades supervisors
Self-directed and resilient, with a career of hiring behind them
Ready to build something of their own in the industry they know

If you're looking for a salaried position with benefits, this isn't it, and that's by design.
