Talent Acquisition Partner

Hazelwood, Missouri, United States

 

A Real Look at the Role

One of the most valuable things a recruiter can do is give candidates a clear, honest picture of the role—what it takes to succeed, what challenges to expect, and whether it’s truly the right fit. So, let’s start with that:

Impact:
This isn’t just a recruiting role—it’s a key position that directly affects our ability to operate. You’ll be the driving force behind keeping our manufacturing production lines staffed and running. When we’re short on people, lines slow or shut down. When you’re doing your job well, the entire site feels it—and thrives because of it.

Workload & Expectations:
You’ll be independently responsible for hiring 12–15 front-line manufacturing associates per week. That includes everything from sourcing and screening to engaging, assessing, and closing candidates. You’ll need to move fast, stay organized, and own your pipeline from start to finish. It's fast-paced, high-impact work—perfect for someone who thrives under pressure and takes pride in results.  This is an onsite role - that has some flexibility but expectations to be in office 4 days a week at minimum and some flexibility to support events or activities during off hours (for instance setting up a once a month hiring event for our overnight shifts might mean working on night a month during off hours).  

Tools & Innovation:
We’re currently using Greenhouse as our ATS—it gets the job done, but we know there's room to improve. We'd love your support to make it even better. We’re looking for someone who’s tech-savvy, process-driven, and not afraid to challenge the status quo. If you can spot opportunities to make things better and help drive the change, you'll make a big impact here.

 

Facility Overview

Our Hazelwood facility operates 24 hours a day, Monday through Friday, with our front-line associates often working weekends to help meet production goals.

We see opportunities for change and improvement in our facilitates production—and we’re actively working toward it. We’re looking for someone who can step into a fast-paced, high-pressure environment, embrace the challenge, and be part of building solutions. If you're motivated by the opportunity to drive real change and want to be part of a team that’s evolving and growing, this could be the right fit for you.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
