About the role
A fast-growing US trucking company is building out its driver-recruitment function into its own department and is looking for the leader to run it. You won't be starting from a blank page — a team of nine recruiters, a recruiting CRM, and working processes are already in place. You'll take it to the next level.
This role is for you if:
- You're a senior driver recruiter or recruitment team lead ready to step up and run your own department.
- You lead high-volume or blue-collar / field-workforce hiring and want to move that experience into US trucking — the hiring technology is nearly identical.
- You've managed remote recruiters for a US company and want a bigger mandate.
What you'll own
- Lead the recruitment team (a team lead and about 9–10 recruiters): set standards, track KPIs, and coach to results.
- Keep a steady, high-volume pipeline of qualified drivers.
- Run the full sourcing engine: job boards, referral programs, lead providers, CDL (commercial driver's license) schools, and veteran hiring programs.
- Build onboarding, training, and loyalty programs that keep new drivers on board.
- Partner with the retention and marketing teams; report results to leadership with clear numbers.
What we're looking for
- A proven recruitment leader (team lead, manager, or head) with a track record in high-volume driver recruiting — or blue-collar / field-workforce mass hiring.
- Someone who handles pressure by building the system that removes it, and can back every number in the funnel with data.
- Strong with recruiting technology: applicant tracking systems (ATS), CRM, and KPI tracking.
- Business-level English, comfortable leading an English-speaking recruiting operation.
- Reliable overlap with US Central business hours.
What we offer
- A ready team and systems you can build on from day one.
- A hands-on leadership team that backs you — with the tools, resources, and budget to do the job.
- Real ownership of the function and room to grow as the department scales.
- A stable, long-term, full-time role with an established US company, paid in USD.
