The Department of Safety Human Resources team is looking for a Senior Recruiter to join the Talent Acquisition team. This individual will be a key part of the Talent Acquisition team by supporting the various Department of Safety agencies by executing both high volume recruitments and unique, hard to fill professional staff positions. The Talent Acquisition team believes that every interaction with a candidate is an opportunity to make a positive impact and we are dedicated to changing the candidate experience by ensuring that every individual who interacts with our team feels valued, respected, and supported.

As a Senior Recruiter, you will immerse yourself in learning the nuances of our Safety agencies and their unique roles and recruitment needs. By doing so, you can expect to leverage the width and breadth of your recruiting experience and expertise to spear head both high volume recruitments and unique staffing roles. You'll have the ability to become a trusted advisor to your clients through relationship building and guidance throughout recruitments; and if process improvement and innovation pique your interest, you’ll also have the opportunity to become a subject matter expert and support innovation projects team wide. While this role does not directly manage others, you will be responsible for end-to-end support of agencies, think everything from consultative intake meetings through candidate onboarding and first day experience.
While no recruitment or hiring team is the same, the foundation of what we do doesn’t: communication. We are a team focused on delivering the best candidate experience possible and to support that vision and mission believe that can be achieved only through clear communication. As such you’ll be expected to demonstrate strong, clear communication on a consistent basis.
