About the Job

The Talent Acquisition Partner leads recruiting for Bright’s management, office-based, and salaried roles across our regions and brands. You’ll own the front end of the hiring process: working with hiring managers to define what each role really needs, writing the job description, getting the opening in front of the right people, and screening candidates so hiring managers spend their time on the people worth meeting. Once you’ve found qualified candidates, you hand them off to the hiring manager and their HR partner to take it from there.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys being both the hunter and the advisor. You’ll post and source, and you’ll also set expectations with managers, ask the hard questions when a role isn’t clearly defined, and help raise the bar on how Bright hires. You’ll support hourly recruiting when volume calls for it, and you’ll pick up other HR projects as the business needs.

What You’ll Do

Partner with Hiring Managers

• Run an intake meeting for every new opening to understand the role, the team, the must-haves versus nice-to-haves, and what success looks like in the first year.

• Walk hiring managers through our hiring process, timeline, and their part in it, so everyone knows what to expect from day one.

• Set realistic expectations on candidate availability, pay, and time-to-fill, and advise when a role’s requirements or pay range need a second look.

• Keep hiring managers updated on pipeline status and candidate progress.

Write and Post Jobs

• Write and update job descriptions that are clear, accurate, and appealing to the candidates we want, using our standard template.

• Post openings on our career site, job boards, LinkedIn, and other channels that fit the role.

• Make sure postings meet pay transparency and other posting requirements in each state where we hire.

Find and Screen Talent

• Source passive candidates through LinkedIn, networking, referrals, and industry contacts when a posting alone won’t fill the role.

• Review applicants and conduct phone screens to assess experience, fit, motivation, and pay expectations.

• Use Predictive Index and other tools to round out the picture of each candidate.

• Send the hiring manager and HR partner a short list of qualified candidates with screening notes, then hand off for interviews and next steps.

Keep the Process Running Smoothly

• Manage requisitions and candidate records in our applicant tracking system.

• Track and report on recruiting metrics such as open requisitions, time-to-fill, and source of hire.

• Deliver a candidate experience that reflects well on Bright, including timely communication with every applicant.

• Promote our employee referral program and build relationships with schools, associations, and industry groups to strengthen future pipelines.

• Support hourly recruiting alongside our HR team during peak season or high-volume hiring.

• Take on other HR projects and responsibilities as needed.
