We are currently hiring a Contract Recruiter — Accounting & Finance to help grow our company and ensure our mission is achieved! This is a contracting opportunity focused on full-cycle recruiting for accounting and finance roles. The contractor will own requisitions end-to-end — from intake through signed offer — across a broad range of finance and accounting functions.

Requirements

• 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with at least 2 years focused on accounting and finance placements.
• Proven placements from staff accountant through controller or finance director.
• Working fluency in finance and accounting concepts — you can hold a credible conversation about month-end close, GAAP, revenue recognition, FP&A, and common ERP systems such as NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, Workday, and QuickBooks.
• Comfort managing a busy desk with 8–12 active requisitions as a normal week, not a crisis.
• Real direct sourcing skill — posting and waiting will not fill these roles.
• ATS fluency (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, Bullhorn, or iCIMS) and clean, consistent documentation habits.
• Written communication that a hiring manager can forward without editing.
• Self-directed work style — you will be given context and priorities, not daily supervision.
• Curious, adaptable, and open to learning as roles and workflows evolve.

Responsibilities

• Run intake calls with hiring managers and translate them into a written search strategy covering target titles, target companies, compensation range, and must-haves versus trainables.
• Source passive candidates through LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, referrals, alumni networks of local public accounting firms, and your own professional network.
• Screen for technical depth — distinguishing candidates who owned month-end close from those who reconciled a handful of accounts.
• Write and post job ads that read like a person wrote them.
• Submit qualified candidates with a written summary covering fit, comp expectations, reason for the move, notice period, and offer risk.
• Coordinate interviews, prep candidates, run manager debriefs, and keep every active candidate warm throughout the process.
• Manage offer conversations including compensation negotiation, counteroffer risk, and start date alignment.
• Keep the ATS current daily — notes, stages, and dispositions accurate enough that someone else could pick up your desk tomorrow.
• Report weekly on pipeline health: sourced, screened, submitted, interviewed, offers out, and where each role is stuck.
