Why Join Project HOME?

At Project HOME, housing, healthcare, and dignity are human rights. Our work is rooted in compassion, equity, and community, and our people are at the heart of everything we do. Joining Project HOME means using your professional skills to directly support individuals and families working to overcome homelessness and poverty.

This role offers a rare opportunity to shape and grow the Talent Acquisition function at a mission-driven organization with a strong equity framework, while expanding services with a clear vision for the future.

What to Expect in This Role

This is a recruiter-first leadership role. The Senior Manager of Talent Acquisition and Recruitment will carry a full-cycle requisition load, particularly for senior-level and health services roles, while also coaching and leading a growing recruitment team.

As the first role of its kind at Project HOME, you will help define how Talent Acquisition operates and lay the groundwork for a function that is expected to grow over the next one to two years. You will work closely with the SVP of People and Culture as a trusted thought partner, with the autonomy to bring ideas forward and lead meaningful initiatives.

Project HOME is a complex organization with multiple lines of service, including a federally qualified health center, supportive housing, education, and administrative services. The learning curve is real, and so is the support. Success requires comfort with complexity, strong time management, and the ability to prioritize while staying grounded in data.

What You Will Do

Hands-On Full-Cycle Recruitment

• Carry a requisition load, with emphasis on senior-level and health services roles including providers, nursing, behavioral health, dental, and clinical support positions.
• Support hiring across administrative, operational, and programmatic teams as needed.

Hiring Manager Partnership and Workforce Planning

• Partner with hiring leaders to clarify needs, forecast priorities, and reinforce equitable hiring practices.
• Keep searches moving by addressing barriers and aligning expectations.

Team Leadership and Standardization

• Coach, mentor, and develop recruiters, modeling strong candidate engagement and effective hiring manager partnership.
• Reinforce consistent workflows, applicant tracking system (ATS) utilization, and standardized practices.

Talent Pipelines and Employer Brand

• Build pipelines for recurring and hard-to-fill roles through proactive sourcing and partnerships.
• Strengthen Project HOME's employer brand across healthcare and social services.

Data, Metrics, and Continuous Improvement

• Track, analyze, and present key hiring metrics including time to fill, pipeline health, and vacancy risk.
• Use data to guide decisions and continuously improve hiring outcomes.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Collaborate with HR, credentialing, onboarding, and learning teams to support seamless hiring and day-one readiness.

About You

This role is a strong fit for someone who genuinely enjoys full-cycle recruiting and feels energized by staying close to the work while leading others. You are comfortable carrying a requisition load while also thinking strategically about systems, process improvement, and team development.

You are structured, organized, and intentional about how you manage your time. You do well in fast-moving, complex environments and are able to create guardrails that help you and others stay focused and effective.

You value partnership and collaboration, are comfortable navigating ambiguity, and approach leadership with curiosity, humility, and accountability. You see yourself as both a leader and a learner.

This role may be less satisfying for someone seeking a strategy-only position, minimal hands-on recruiting, or a highly static environment.

What You Bring (Required)

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or related field, or equivalent experience.
• Seven or more years of experience in recruitment or talent acquisition.
• At least three years of experience in a leadership or management role, building, coaching, and leading recruiters.
• Demonstrated success in full-cycle recruiting, including sourcing, employer branding, candidate engagement, and process optimization.
• Hands-on experience recruiting for healthcare or clinical roles such as providers, nursing, behavioral health, medical, and dental positions.
• Strong knowledge of equitable hiring practices.
• Proficiency with applicant tracking systems and recruitment technology, including reporting and data integrity.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence, partner with, and coach hiring leaders.

What You May Bring (Preferred experience)

• Experience working in nonprofit healthcare, federally qualified health centers, or behavioral health settings.
• Familiarity with HRSA requirements, licensure, and credentialing processes.
• Demonstrated success building pipelines for leadership or other hard-to-fill roles.
• Experience using data, metrics, and analytics to guide recruitment strategy and tell a clear story.
• Experience recruiting across multiple functional areas, including operations, supportive housing, or administrative roles.
