We have a vibrant, fast-paced, and friendly office environment and are hoping to find the right person to join our expanding office team.
The Recruiter is a vital link to the growth and success of Seniors Helping Seniors® of Greater Boston and Metrowest and will be the first point of contact for all potential caregivers; therefore, strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential qualities in order to be successful in this role. The ideal candidate must have superior attention to detail, excellent written and oral communication skills, and an ability to multitask and see tasks through completion amid frequent interruptions. Three or more years of recruiting, human resources and/or sales experience is strongly preferred.
Essential Skills and Qualities:
- Enthusiastic. We are looking for someone who is excited about the unique work we do and is able to easily convey this to prospective caregivers. In a competitive labor market, articulating why SHS is a great place to work compared to comparable hourly positions is critical.
- Superior attention to detail and ability to switch gears with shifting priorities. Given all of the moving parts and daily interruptions, it is critical that the Recruiter is able to shift his/her/their attention while still being detail-oriented and focused on quality.
- Organized, systems-thinker. In an environment with lots of moving pieces, systems are essential and the ideal candidate would have a firm grasp on the importance of organization and systems.
- Highly communicative and collaborative. We are a quickly expanding team and we deeply value cohesiveness and collaboration. Communication and respect are key to our success in serving our clients, caregivers, and referral sources effectively.
- Self-motivated and a “can-do” attitude. If you encounter a problem, we want you to be a part of the solution! While we value collaboration, it is important to have the ability to work independently and the ideal candidate would be someone who is self-directed.
- Strong desire to learn. We want to work with people who are curious by nature and there are lots of learning opportunities offered in our community. We value working with people who are excited about gaining knowledge and we support continuing education opportunities.
- Problem Solver. Working in human services, challenging situations are the norm. We want someone who is a good problem solver, has a positive attitude, is a good listener, and knows when to ask for help.
- Creative Thinker. The demand for our services is strong and continues to grow year over year. However, the post-COVID labor market looks very different than it did before, especially for older workers. We want someone who thinks outside the box when it comes to our recruitment and outreach process.
