About the Role

You’ll lead full lifecycle recruiting across key Ford Racing functions, working closely with hiring leaders and talent partners to define talent needs, drive search strategy, and deliver exceptional candidates. While you will be remote, you’ll collaborate regularly with teams based in Concord, NC and Allen Park, MI and may support roles in both locations. The ideal candidate brings senior-level recruiting experience, strong stakeholder management skills, and an ability to navigate niche talent markets, ideally including motorsport and performance automotive domains.

  • Manage candidate pipelines, drive proactive outreach, and maintain accurate documentation in Ford’s ATS and Sustainable Talent systems.

  • Facilitate regular stakeholder updates, presenting pipeline data, market insights, and recommendations to improve hiring outcomes.

  • Identify search challenges early and propose creative solutions, leveraging motorsport/performance/aftermarket automotive networks where possible.

  • Guide candidates through the process with clear expectations, timely follow-up, and a focus on creating an exceptional candidate experience.

  • Collaborate closely with the Senior Sourcer to align on sourcing priorities, calibrate profiles, and ensure smooth handoffs from top-of-funnel through offer.

What We Need to See

  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, preferably in corporate, technical, or specialized talent environments.

  • Proven success managing senior-level stakeholders, driving intake discussions, and influencing hiring decisions.

  • Strong skills in candidate assessment, interviewing, and resume/profile evaluation, with a focus on quality and fit.

  • Comfort working remotely while partnering with geographically distributed teams in Concord, NC and Allen Park, MI.

  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to present data, market insights, and recommendations clearly to leadership.

  • High attention to detail, strong follow-through, and ability to manage multiple searches simultaneously in a fast-paced setting.

Bonus Points

  • Motorsport expertise or experience in performance, motorsports, or the aftermarket automotive industry.

  • Experience recruiting for engineering, technical, or highly specialized roles where talent markets are niche or competitive.

  • Background working with or within large enterprise organizations, preferably automotive or industrial.

  • Familiarity with Ford’s ATS or similar enterprise applicant tracking systems and recruiting tools.

Logistics

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.
