About The Position

RCR Consulting Group is hiring a Part-Time Full Life-Cycle Recruiter to join our growing HR Consulting team. In this role, you won't just fill seats — you'll own your requisitions from start to finish. We're looking for a self-directed recruiting professional who thrives with autonomy, takes genuine ownership of their req load, and brings a consultative mindset to every search. Our team supports a diverse portfolio of clients spanning industries such as Solar, Manufacturing, IT, Transportation, Logistics, Property Management, Mental Health, Government Contracting, and more. No two client environments are the same — each comes with its own culture, interview process, hiring pace, and talent landscape. Your ability to assess each client's unique needs, tailor your recruiting approach accordingly, and make proactive recommendations is what sets great performance apart here. This is a fully remote, permanent part-time position working Monday through Friday. Hours will typically range between 10-15 per week; however, due to the natural ebb and flow of client hiring activity, hours may occasionally run lighter or increase beyond that range. We need someone with the flexibility to adapt as business demands shift. Prior experience working successfully in a remote environment is required. We are seeking a recruiter committed to RCR long-term — this is not a transitional role or a supplement to other employment.

4+ years of experience in full life-cycle recruiting or talent acquisition
Demonstrated ability to work independently, manage your own workload, and drive searches forward without heavy oversight
Proven adaptability — you've recruited across multiple industries or client environments and know how to shift your approach based on context
Comfort operating with ambiguity and adjusting priorities as client needs change
Strong communication and relationship-building skills
Experience working in a fully remote setting
Proficiency with ATS and HRIS platforms
BA/BS in Human Resources or related field
