Part-Time Recruiter (Skilled Trades & Apprenticeships)
About Zoom Drain | Who we are:
Zoom Drain is a growing, customer-focused company specializing in drain and sewer services for homeowners and businesses. As the continuation of a third-generation family business, we’re known for fast, reliable solutions that put customers first, built on our core values of Grit, Responsibility, Optimism, and Willingness.
We invest in our people. Real training, real advancement, and a challenging environment for people who want to build a career, not just clock in.
The Role | What you’ll be doing:
Zoom Drain is growing, and we need skilled tradespeople to keep up. We're hiring a part-time Recruiter to lead hiring for our registered apprenticeship program, bringing people into the trades on a structured path to a skilled career. You'll also support hiring for our field and office roles as openings come up.
This is a full recruiting seat, not a coordinator role. You'll source, screen, interview, and close, working directly with our field and office leaders.
Schedule: 10–20 hours per week, mostly remote, with a few hours onsite each week. Hours are flexible, but most work happens during core business hours, when candidates and hiring managers are available. Expect occasional extra onsite time for recruiting and company events.
Essential Functions: What you'll own
- Own apprentice recruiting end to end. Build a steady pipeline through job boards, referrals, sourcing, trade and vo-tech schools, and workforce boards then screen, interview, and move candidates to offer.
- Track every candidate's screening process, from application review through phone screens, interviews, and selection decisions.
- Recruit for skilled trade roles, such as technicians, and back-office roles, such as customer service, dispatch, and administrative positions, as needs arise.
- Run phone and video screens, and meet candidates in person on office days.
- Partner with hiring managers to define what each role actually requires before sourcing starts.
- Manage candidates in the ATS and keep pipeline and hiring metrics current.
- Schedule interviews, handle follow-up, prepare and extend offers, and manage the background and drug screening process.
- Represent Zoom Drain at hiring events as needed.
Qualifications | What you bring
- 2+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience. Hourly, skilled trades, or high-volume hiring is strongly preferred.
- Experience finding candidates beyond the usual job boards, through schools, referrals, community partners, and direct outreach.
- A natural phone presence. You like talking to people and can get a candidate excited about a career they may not have considered.
- Sound judgment in assessing candidates against clear, job-related criteria.
- ATS experience - JazzHR or Rippling is a plus.
- Organized and self-directed, able to run a pipeline independently on a part-time schedule.
- Able to be onsite in Plymouth Meeting weekly.
- Bonus: experience with registered apprenticeship programs, trade school partnerships, or workforce development.
Pay & Perks
- $33–$35/hour
- Paid weekly by direct deposit
- Mostly remote with flexible hours
