Build the Team That Powers a National Operation

We’re looking for a hands-on, strategic Director of Talent Acquisition to lead and evolve our recruiting function across a fast-growing, multi-location organization.

This is a fully onsite role based in Fort Lauderdale and requires national travel as needed to support hiring initiatives, leadership alignment, and field operations.

This is a player-coach role leading a small but impactful team, with direct visibility and regular communication with the CEO. You’ll be expected to move quickly, make decisions, and drive results in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

If you thrive in high-volume operations, know how to build structure, and can turn recruiting into a scalable, performance-driven function — we want to talk to you.

What You’ll Own

• Lead national talent acquisition strategy across field, corporate, and leadership hiring
• Partner directly with the CEO, executive team, and regional leadership on workforce planning and hiring strategy
• Drive recruiting performance across multiple locations, ensuring teams are staffed to meet operational demand
• Build and implement structured hiring processes, workflows, and accountability measures
• Oversee and optimize the ATS (configuration, reporting, compliance, and adoption)
• Analyze and report on key metrics: time-to-fill, cost-per-hire, source effectiveness, and hiring trends
• Develop executive-level reporting to support real-time decision-making
• Strengthen recruiting pipelines through community partnerships, job marketing, and hiring events
• Lead employer branding initiatives and elevate the candidate experience
• Manage vendors, job boards, and external recruiting partnerships
• Coach and train hiring managers on interviewing and selection best practices
• Lead, mentor, and develop a small recruiting team
• Ensure compliance with all employment laws and company policies
• Continuously improve processes to increase efficiency, quality of hire, and retention

Why This Role

• Direct partnership and visibility with the CEO and executive leadership team
• Opportunity to build, shape, and scale recruiting across a national footprint
• High-impact role where speed, execution, and results matter
• Lead a team while remaining hands-on in a fast-moving, growth-focused company

 What You Bring

• 6+ years of progressive talent acquisition experience
• 3+ years leading recruiting teams or functions
• Experience in high-volume, multi-site environments (transportation, logistics, operations, retail, hospitality, etc.)
• Strong background in ATS management, recruiting analytics, and process design
• Proven ability to build structure, drive accountability, and execute quickly
• Experience managing recruiting budgets and analyzing ROI
• Advanced skills in data analysis, reporting, and dashboards (Excel or similar tools)
• Strong communication skills with the ability to interact directly with executive leadership
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, operationally driven environment
• Must be able to work onsite in Fort Lauderdale and travel nationally as needed (approximately 20%)
