This role has two clear priorities: recruit great people for Benchmark’s corporate office teams, and provide focused sourcing support for hard-to-fill or high-priority roles in our communities.

Step into urgent searches when a community has a serious staffing or leadership need and help create a focused recruiting plan.

How You’ll Work

Balance multiple searches while knowing which roles need the most attention.
Work closely with recruiters, HR, Operations, and hiring leaders without creating extra steps or handoffs.
Use recruiting data to see what is working, where candidates are coming from, and where we need to change approach.
Represent Benchmark well in every candidate conversation and build relationships that may lead to future hires.

7+ years of recruiting experience, including full-cycle recruiting and proactive sourcing.

Able to work independently, move quickly, and handle several priorities at once. Strong organizational skills.

What Success Looks Like
Corporate office roles are filled with strong candidates and hiring leaders have a clear, responsive recruiting partner.
Priority community searches get focused sourcing support when the normal recruiting process is not producing enough qualified candidates.
Benchmark builds stronger pipelines for important roles instead of relying only on posted jobs.
