A little bit about the role!
We’re looking for a strategic, innovative, and results-driven Recruiting Manager who is energized by the opportunity to build something new while staying close to the work. This person will lead the design and implementation of scalable recruiting processes and systems - including full life-cycle process design and ATS configuration - while also managing a light requisition load. A key focus of the role will be supporting high-volume hiring for our Operations division, along with corporate and tech functions.
The ideal candidate is both strategic and hands-on, thrives in a fast-paced, mission-driven, people-first environment, and is passionate about inclusive hiring practices. This role requires someone who can build strong cross-functional partnerships, deliver engaging candidate experiences, and drive excellence in the recruiting function every day.
As our Recruiting Manager, you will be responsible for the following:
Leading Strategic Talent Initiatives
- Developing and implementing a strategic recruitment roadmap that addresses current hiring challenges while proactively planning for future workforce needs.
- Leveraging analytics, insights, and external trends to guide hiring strategies and inform decision-making.
- Immersing in the business to understand internal strategies, goals, and pain points, and translating that understanding into effective recruiting approaches.
- Using labor market knowledge to align talent acquisition with broader organizational and environmental trends.
Building and Executing Full Life-Cycle Recruiting
- Owning a light requisition load and actively managing full-cycle recruiting for high-priority roles across Operations, Tech, and Corporate functions.
- Designing and configuring recruiting systems and workflows, specifically with BambooHR, to enable scalable and efficient processes.
- Building a recruiting team and leading efforts to attract, review, interview, assess, and negotiate offers across departments.
- Developing robust and proactive candidate pipelines through networking, sourcing, and community engagement.
- Understanding skill needs in the context of organizational strategy, identifying transferable skills and alternative talent markets, and hiring for potential.
Cultivating Strong Relationships
- Building trust-based partnerships with internal stakeholders and serving as a strategic advisor on hiring and market trends.
- Establishing and strengthening relationships with external talent sources, especially in local and community-based networks.
- Creating an inclusive, people-first candidate experience that reflects UZURV’s mission and values.
We are excited about you because…
- You have 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including both high-volume, corporate, and technical roles.
- You’ve led and developed small recruiting teams and understand how to motivate and coach others.
- You’re excited to “build the engine” and fine-tune systems, not just run them.
- You’re confident in your ability to use data and systems to improve outcomes - especially in high-growth or scaling environments.
- You’re a clear communicator and cross-functional collaborator.
- You’re adaptable, resourceful, and don’t mind rolling up your sleeves when needed.
- You have experience with tools like BambooHR and Google Suite.
To be successful at UZURV, you must be:
- Metrics minded - We build great stuff, but it is not easy. You must be driven to find the numbers that help us hit goals and identify solutions, especially while under pressure.
- Agile - Multitasking is necessary in a growing, fast paced company, as is the ability to plan and organize your workload. You must be flexible and nimble to adapt to shifting priorities.
- Collaborative - Collaboration is critical at UZURV, and we work together to provide greater independence for the communities we serve. You should be committed to approaching this role with a results focused, collaborative and inclusive mindset.
- Mission driven - We believe that the ADA is a promise and Mobility Independence is for Everyone. What we are creating every day is to ensure access to reliable, safe, and on-demand transportation is available to people who need assistance getting around. Valuing your work and the time you spend in your career is core to who you are – you work where you want to make a true difference.
Reasons it pays to work at UZURV (in addition to the pay itself)...
UZURV employees understand we are building a company that is greatly needed to improve access to mobility for all of us, regardless of our disabilities, illnesses, or impacts of age. We get daily affirmation from our riders, drivers, and the transportation companies we work with about the innovation, value, and quality inherent in what we bring to market. In addition to providing our employees with a safe and collaborative environment UZURV also offers:
- 401K matching
