Knoxville – National Search Portfolio
M Force Partners | Talent Acquisition / Recruiting Opportunity
About M Force Partners:
M Force Partners is a nationally ranked recruiting/staffing and executive search firm delivering contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire, and retained search solutions across multiple industries:
Engineering & Technical
Professional Services
Healthcare
Private Equity
Executive Search
As an EOS-run organization, we operate through a proven delivery framework —
The M Force Way
— built around structured search execution, true client partnership, and high-quality hiring outcomes.
The Role:
This is a full-cycle recruiting position focused on sourcing, attracting, evaluating, and placing top talent across multiple industries and functional areas.
You will own searches from intake to placement, partner directly with sales leadership and clients, and deliver a high-level candidate experience throughout the process.
This is
not
a resume-pushing recruiter role — you will operate as a talent advisor and search owner.
What You’ll Do:
Search Execution
Lead searches from kickoff to placement
Build sourcing strategies for active and passive talent
Utilize calls, LinkedIn, networking, referrals, and databases to identify candidates
Screen and qualify talent for skills, culture fit, motivation, and compensation alignment
Candidate Relationship Management
Build strong relationships with candidates throughout the hiring process
Prepare candidates for interviews
Manage feedback, offers, negotiations, and closing process
Deliver an exceptional candidate experience
Client Partnership
Partner with internal sales team and hiring managers on search strategy
Understand business needs, hiring priorities, and role requirements
Provide market feedback, talent insights, and pipeline updates
Help guide hiring decisions through strong communication and process management
Talent Pipeline Development
Build talent communities in key markets and industries
Maintain organized pipelines for future openings
Re-engage prior candidates and referrals
Develop long-term networks that create repeat placements
Operational Excellence
Manage activity, notes, and workflow in CRM/ATS
Prioritize multiple searches simultaneously
Maintain urgency, organization, and consistent follow-up
Execute within structured recruiting processes and KPIs
What Success Looks Like
Consistent outbound recruiting activity
Qualified candidate pipelines
High submission-to-interview ratios
Placements and repeat business
Strong candidate experience and reputation
Ability to manage multiple searches with urgency and quality
Qualifications:
2+ years of recruiting/staffing experience preferred
(agency, search firm, or corporate recruiting backgrounds considered)
Strong sourcing and candidate engagement skills
Ability to build relationships and influence people
Strong communication and follow-up discipline
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
CRM / ATS experience preferred
(Tracker, LinkedIn Recruiter, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, etc.)
Competitive mindset with a sense of urgency and ownership
Compensation & Schedule:
Competitive base salary
(weekly pay)
Uncapped commission plan
Bonus opportunities
Full benefits
(medical, dental, vision, life, 401k)
Unlimited PTO
Hybrid Schedule after 90 days
Why This Role Stands Out:
High-quality job orders and national client exposure
Ability to work direct hire, retained, and contract to hire searches
A structured recruiting process that drives results
Growth path into senior recruiting or sales roles
Strong leadership support and clear expectations
Opportunity to build a long-term recruiting career, not just work another desk
Apply:
If you want to build a long-term career in recruiting with a firm that values structure, growth, and winning the right way — we’d like to talk.
