Buffalo, NY | $60,000-$75,000 Base + Monthly Commission | $100,000-$150,000 OTE Hybrid flexibility after training Are you an experienced agency recruiter who knows how to make professional direct-hire placements, but would rather step into an established desk than start from zero? Key Resource Group is a Buffalo-based, woman-owned staffing and recruiting firm that has been connecting exceptional professionals with Western New York employers for more than four decades. We are looking for an experienced full-desk recruiter to join our team and manage an established portfolio of client relationships while continuing to grow the business. This is not an entry-level recruiting position. We are looking for someone who understands professional recruiting, knows how to find passive talent, can build credibility with clients and candidates, and enjoys the business side of running a successful recruiting desk. What You'll Do Manage the complete professional direct-hire recruiting process, from client intake through placement and follow-up. Partner with hiring managers, HR leaders, executives and business owners to understand their hiring needs. Source and engage both active and passive candidates through LinkedIn Recruiter, databases, referrals, networking and direct outreach. Conduct in-depth candidate interviews to evaluate experience, accomplishments, career goals, compensation and overall fit. Present qualified candidates to clients and manage the interview process from beginning to end. Prepare candidates for interviews and maintain consistent communication throughout the search. Manage offers, negotiations, counteroffers, acceptances and post-placement follow-up. Maintain and expand established client relationships. Identify opportunities to develop new business and grow your desk. Recruit primarily within professional disciplines including Legal, Accounting & Finance, Human Resources, Engineering, Information Technology, Operations Management and Administrative/Professional Support. What We're Looking For Minimum 2 years of hands-on professional recruiting experience. Direct-hire/permanent placement experience required. Staffing agency, search firm or executive recruiting experience strongly preferred. Demonstrated ability to proactively source and recruit passive candidates, not simply manage incoming applicants. Experience recruiting professional, technical, administrative and/or management-level talent. Experience managing relationships with hiring managers or staffing clients. Ability and desire to work both sides of a recruiting desk - candidates and clients. Business-development experience or a demonstrated ability to grow client relationships. Strong interviewing, negotiation, communication and follow-up skills. Competitive and results-oriented while maintaining a high level of integrity and professionalism. Why Key Resource Group? You won't be handed a phone and told to build a business from scratch. You'll join an established recruiting firm with long-standing client relationships, an existing professional recruiting desk and more than four decades of history. We offer a $60,000-$75,000 base salary, monthly commission with $100,000-$150,000 OTE, comprehensive benefits and hybrid flexibility after training. Most importantly, you'll join a supportive, experienced team that genuinely enjoys what we do. If you're an experienced professional recruiter who loves the hunt, enjoys building relationships and wants the earning potential of running a successful desk, we'd like to meet you.
