About The Position

The role requires regular in-person engagement in the Knoxville office.

• Ability to develop junior talent, set clear expectations, and hold people accountable with care.
• Track record of building a culture of quality, discipline, and continuous improvement.
• Comfortable being the most experienced person in the room and modeling the standard you expect.
• End-to-end project delivery experience, including ATS implementations, process builds, employer brand refreshes, and hiring manager enablement programs.
• Ability to scope, plan, and execute without being pushed.
• Strong stakeholder management skills to drive alignment and adoption across regions.
• Builds reporting that tells a real story rather than just tracking activity.
• Uses data to influence hiring manager behavior and inform workforce planning.
• Comfortable establishing metrics frameworks where none currently exist.
• Experience implementing or significantly configuring a mature ATS is strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to drive adoption and data integrity across a recruiting team.
