For our client, employees aren't just part of the team. They're owners. When the company wins, the people who helped make it happen win too, and that shapes how everyone shows up: with pride, accountability, and a real stake in the outcome.

It's also a growing company, and they're looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist & HR Generalist. You'll have a hand in employer branding, represent the company at trade shows, build relationships with trade schools, and spend time with teams at offices across Texas, while also supporting HR, with room to take on more as the company grows.

If you're ready to help shape how a growing company finds its people, and grow your own career along the way, this one's for you.
