Senior Recruiter

Job Description

ECS is seeking a Senior Recruiter to work in our Norman, OK office.

ECS is seeking a driven and innovative Senior Recruiter to support our Postal and Field Service operations in Norman, Oklahoma. This position is responsible for full-cycle recruiting and staffing vendor management for high-volume, skilled technical roles that support the maintenance, documentation, and engineering of critical mail-processing systems nationwide.

This is not a conventional sourcing role-success requires creativity, persistence, and a deep understanding of skilled-trade recruiting in constrained labor markets. You'll blend hands-on recruiting with partnership management across vendors, subcontractors, and workforce programs to ensure ECS can meet its Postal staffing commitments.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead full-cycle recruiting for Field Service Technicians, Documentation Specialists, Engineers, and related technical roles supporting ECS's Postal portfolio.
• Develop and manage relationships with staffing vendors and subcontracting partners, ensuring alignment on quality, compliance, and fulfillment timelines.
• Evaluate vendor performance, negotiate rates within contract parameters, and coordinate requisition distribution and candidate submissions.
• Build grassroots pipelines through trade schools, veteran transition programs, workforce centers, and community colleges to supplement vendor sourcing.
• Partner with hiring managers and program leadership to define staffing forecasts, labor category requirements, and candidate qualification criteria.
• Maintain accurate and timely candidate data, requisition notes, and vendor tracking within the ADP Applicant Tracking System.
• Represent ECS at job fairs, industry events, and targeted community outreach initiatives to enhance brand visibility and candidate engagement.
• Coordinate pre-employment processing, onboarding logistics, and compliance activities with internal HR and operations teams.
• Track and report recruiting metrics for both internal and vendor-supplied candidates, identifying trends and recommending process improvements.
• Ensure all recruiting and staffing activities adhere to OFCCP, EEO, and AAP requirements and ECS policies.

Required Skills

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
• 5+ years of recruiting experience, with emphasis on technical, field service, or skilled-trade roles.
  
• Prior experience managing or partnering with third-party staffing vendors or subcontractors.
• Strong sourcing skills using job boards, social media, Boolean search, and local outreach.
• Knowledge of veteran and trade-school recruitment programs and related community partnerships.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
• Experience with Applicant Tracking Systems (ADP preferred).
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent requisitions under tight deadlines and evolving priorities.

Desired Skills

• Experience supporting USPS or similar federal operations environments.
• Understanding of labor market dynamics in Oklahoma and the surrounding region.
• Familiarity with Public Trust clearance processes and federal contracting compliance.
• Proven ability to manage vendor scorecards, rate structures, and contract adherence.
• Passion for creative sourcing and workforce development in skilled technical domains.
