Job Description
Role Overview

The Senior Driver Recruiter is a high-impact, results-driven role that sits at the intersection of talent acquisition and sales. You will sell the Roadrunner opportunity to experienced Independent Contractors—building urgency, handling objections, and closing candidates who strengthen our network. Success is measured by results: quality hires, speed-to-fill, conversion rates, and early-tenure retention.

What You Will Do

Own the full hiring lifecycle like a sales process, drive high-volume, high-intensity communication, operate with precision in a metrics-driven environment, and coordinate clean handoffs and support retention.

Why It Might Be a Fit

You will model what high-performance recruiting looks like in a results-oriented culture, share market feedback, process gaps, and winning approaches, and contribute to a team that moves fast, owns outcomes, and continuously improves.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of high-volume recruiting, sales, or business development experience (transportation or driver recruiting preferred)
  • Proven ability to hit aggressive targets in a fast-paced, metrics-driven environment
  • Strong phone presence and the ability to build rapport quickly while managing high call volume
  • Natural closer mentality—comfortable creating urgency, handling objections, and driving decisions
  • Real understanding of how drivers think, what they care about, and how to earn their trust
  • Exceptional organizational discipline and follow-through under pressure
  • Comfort operating within defined processes while identifying ways to improve them
  • Proficiency with ATS/CRM systems and strong data hygiene
  • Resilience and composure in a high-pressure, results-oriented setting

Benefits

  • Full benefits package including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and PTO
  • Pay: $85,000 - $100,000 per year
