We’re looking for a Senior Recruitment Manager to join our Shared Services Area.

When you come work for us, here’s what you’ll find:

• Work that is meaningful. We are a fast-paced, deadline-driven consulting firm that only works with nonprofit clients who are essential to advancing the cause of justice, alleviating suffering, and solving the greatest challenges we face.
• Commitment to Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion (AEI). We envision an anti-oppressive workplace that ensures an inclusive employee experience, promotes equitable outcomes for staff, and supports clients to center accessibility and anti-racism in their programs.
• Colleagues you can count on. Kind, dedicated, passionate people who work collaboratively to get things done and help you do your best.
• An organization that embraces change. We strive to improve and adapt and always seek new ways that we can contribute to a just, inclusive, and sustainable world. We are also continually working on making M+R a better place for our staff.

So that’s us. Now about the work:

• The Senior Recruitment Manager is part of our Shared Services Area -- composed of five specializations: finance, operations, people, marketing, and anti-racism, equity, and inclusion (AEI). We ensure M+R is positioned to deliver outstanding services to clients such as Planned Parenthood, Feeding America, International Rescue Committee, NRDC, and many more.
• Day-to-day, we focus on benefits administration, human resources, and hiring, developing, and retaining competent, dedicated staff. We help cultivate high-functioning teams at M+R so that we work collaboratively, efficiently, and effectively, and we help foster a strong organizational culture that reflects and furthers M+R’s values.

Here’s what you’ll be doing in this role:

• Lead M+R’s Recruitment and Hiring Team, creating the vision, managing the scopes of work, monitoring the budget, and coordinating with external consultants and vendors.
• Create alignment between recruitment and hiring strategies and procedures and the organization’s Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion priorities and initiatives.
• Coordinate searches for 3-6 positions at a time, including developing hiring materials, posting jobs, screening resumes, scheduling and conducting interviews, and coordinating skills assessments.
• Coordinate with senior M+R leadership to determine staffing targets and hiring plans for the agency.
• Manage and update recruitment and hiring documents and processes including templates, tutorials, and scripts.
• Ensure a strong, diverse, and qualified pipeline of candidates by developing and driving a robust recruitment strategy.
• Update the firm on hiring and recruitment practices by creating compelling presentations and reports.
• Collaborate with Brand Strategist to create effective marketing materials to highlight available positions.
• Contribute to staff onboarding strategy and implementation.
• Directly supervise staff -- being proactive about their professional development and well-being.
• Do your part to help us run smoothly, including carefully tracking all of your hours.

Skills and experiences required for this role:

• 7-9 years of experience in HR or People work, including at least 5 years of experience with full-cycle recruitment.
• Proven ability to develop a strategy and vision for recruitment and hiring work.
• Experience working within an organization or team to advance anti-racism, equity, and/or inclusion efforts.
• Experience setting hiring targets and meeting recruitment goals.
• Experience supporting the professional development of more junior staff or interns, and directly supervising and coaching staff.
• Demonstrated ability to run meetings to identify project goals and ensure successful outcomes.
• Ability to communicate persuasively in a way that articulates your ideas and conveys your expertise, whether on the phone, in-person, or in writing.
