Mid-Atlantic Truck & Equipment (MATE)

Talent Acquisition Specialist — Full-Cycle Recruiting

Do you enjoy connecting with people, figuring things out, and finding the right person for the job?

We’re looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist who brings a sales-minded approach to recruiting—someone who enjoys building relationships, asking good questions, thinking creatively, and finding solutions when the obvious answer isn’t always the right one.

This is a fast-paced role with a lot of variety. You’ll work with hiring managers across the business, recruit for a wide range of positions, and manage the process from the first candidate conversation through the first day. Priorities can change, searches can take unexpected turns, and some roles will be harder to fill than others. We’re looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership, adapting to changing priorities, and finding creative ways to keep things moving forward.

You don’t need a traditional recruiting background to succeed here. We’re interested in people who have experience in sales, hospitality, retail management, customer service, recruiting, or other people-focused environments where building relationships, communicating well, solving problems, and staying adaptable were important to success.

If you like having ownership of your work, enjoy a good challenge, and get satisfaction from connecting the right people with the right opportunities, we’d love to talk with you.

Independent and self-directed — enjoys taking ownership and having the opportunity to make an impact

Adaptable — comfortable when priorities shift and able to adjust your approach as business needs change

Organized and detail-oriented — able to keep multiple searches, conversations, deadlines, and follow-ups moving at the same time

A strong communicator — comfortable communicating with candidates, hiring managers, and leadership across a variety of roles and backgrounds

Comfortable with a challenge — understands that some positions will be easier to fill than others and enjoys working through the more difficult searches

Collaborative and accountable — works well with others while taking responsibility for your own work and follow-through
