Company Description

Who We Are

We are a team of expert recruiters, strategic sourcers, and dedicated operations specialists who believe that every growing business needs and deserves a high-performance recruiting engine. FractionalRecruiter was builtfor small businesses, lean HR teams, and employers who are doing big things but just don't have the bandwidth to lead and manage recruiting on top of everything else.

We aren't a traditional recruiting agency. We are a people-first, deeply integrated recruiting partner that operates as a true extension of our clients' teams. We don't just fill roles, we carry the weight of our clients' missions and help them find the people they need to propel their businesses forward.

What We Do

We help employers build recruiting engines that actually work. Most of our clients are busy and simply don't have the time to hunt for talent or manage the constant details of a search. Rather than just making one-off placements, we design the processes, execute the sourcing strategies, and build the talent pipelines our clients need to consistently find great people-and we provide the expert guidance to help them make the right hiring decisions.

In practice, this means we architect custom hiring strategies and help our clients vet every candidate for culture fit and competence. We drive recruiting activity to create market momentum, and we enable hiring teams by managing the heavy lifting of interview coordination, systems administration, and candidate communication. We work with the tenacity required to push through obstacles and find the right talent, even when the search is difficult.

What It's Like to Work Here

We are a high-trust, fully remote team that values work and the humans behind the work. Our company culture is intentional and formed by a specific set of core values: we strive to be Excellent, Transparent, Accountable, Curious, Teachable, and Redemptive, all while living out the Golden Rule.

Weekly meetings, quarterly people conversations, and an annual company offsite are a few of the liturgies that keep us connected as a remote team. These touch points, along with our core values and regular doses of laughter, form a foundation that allows our team to have fun together, lean into our working geniuses, operate with a high level of accountability and transparency, and work with intense purpose for our clients.

Job Description

We're hiring a full-time Recruiter to own a meaningful book of client work and to represent our clients and candidates with care, judgment, and urgency. This role is for a recruiter who is comfortable leading weekly client meetings and who thrives on a collaborative team with clear expectations and the support to do their best work without burning out.

We operate as a true extension of our clients' teams. That means you'll be trusted to lead searches end-to-end, partner directly with hiring managers, and guide hiring decisions. You won't be doing this alone. You'll be supported by sourcing and recruiting operations teammates so you can stay focused on the work that actually requires recruiter judgment: intake, evaluation, communication, and closing.

What You'll Do

• Own and manage multiple active searches across fractional and contingency engagements
• Lead intake conversations with clients to clarify expectations, success profiles, and hiring priorities
• Partner closely with sourcing specialists to shape and refine sourcing strategies
• Review candidate pipelines and make thoughtful, timely decisions about who moves forward
• Conduct recruiter screens and guide candidates through the interview process
• Communicate clearly and proactively with clients about progress, risks, and tradeoffs
• Advise clients on candidate fit, compensation, and hiring decisions
• Work closely with recruiting coordinators to ensure candidates have a positive, well-run experience
• Keep ATS data, notes, and workflows accurate and up to date
• Push searches forward with urgency while maintaining quality and care
• Represent FractionalRecruiter's values in every interaction with clients, candidates, and teammates

Qualifications

Who We're Looking For

We care deeply about how our team shows up - with clients, candidates, and each other. The right recruiter for FractionalRecruiter will see themselves in the values below, not as ideals, but as expectations.

• Be Excellent - You take pride in doing the work well. You prepare for client conversations, follow through on commitments, and don't need to be chased for updates. You believe excellence is built through consistency and attention to detail.
• Treat Others the Way You Want to Be Treated - You approach recruiting with empathy and respect. You treat candidates like people, not resumes, and clients like partners, not transactions. You take ownership and respond because you know trust is built in the small moments.
• Be Transparent - You believe honesty is a gift. You're willing to share what's working, what isn't, and what might be uncomfortable to hear-because that's how good decisions get made.
• Be Accountable - You own your searches. You don't hide when things get hard, and you don't make excuses. You take responsibility for outcomes and are proactive about solving problems.
• Be Curious - You ask good questions. You want to understand a client's business, a candidate's motivations, and the story behind a resume. You enjoy digging deeper rather than taking things at face value.
• Be Teachable - You bring experience but not ego. You're open to feedback, willing to learn, and comfortable saying "I don't know" when appropriate. You want to keep getting better at your craft.
• Be Redemptive - You handle tension, mistakes, and misalignment with maturity. You look for solutions, not scapegoats, and believe relationships can be strengthened through honest, respectful conversations.

Required Qualifications

We're not looking for someone who needs to be trained from scratch. The right person for this role has done this work before and is ready to own it.

• 3+ years of experience running full-cycle recruiting searches, ideally in a high-touch client-facing environment
• Demonstrated experience managing multiple open roles at once while maintaining quality and momentum
• Comfort partnering directly with hiring managers and advising them through hiring decisions
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, especially in client-facing situations
• Sound judgment when evaluating candidates for both competence and culture fit
• Experience working with sourcing partners, recruiting coordinators, or operations support
• Ability to stay organized, manage details, and keep work moving without close supervision
• Comfort working in a fully remote, high-trust environment
• Working knowledge of ATS platforms and modern recruiting tools
• Authorization to work in the United States
