The Director of Talent Acquisition is a hands-on recruiting leader responsible for delivering high-volume, multi-site hiring in hospitality and retail environments.

The Director oversees end-to-end recruiting operations—from requisition and intake through hiring—while supervising in-house recruiters, partnering closely with operational leaders, and ensuring the organization is staffed appropriately for fluctuating seasonal needs.

Key Responsibilities

High-Volume & Seasonal Recruiting Execution

Lead and actively participate in high-volume, full-cycle recruiting for hourly, supervisory, and management roles in hospitality and retail operations.
Plan and execute seasonal hiring ramps tied to peak operating periods, new site openings, and contract start dates.
Personally manage recruiting for critical leadership, hard-to-fill, or time-sensitive roles.
Ensure rapid yet compliant hiring processes that balance speed, quality, and candidate experience.

Recruitment Operations, Policy & Team Leadership

Develop, implement, and maintain standardized recruiting policies, workflows, and tools designed for high-volume and seasonal hiring.
Supervise, coach, and support in-house recruiters, while engaging with HR specialists who assist in hiring.
Establish recruiting service-level expectations, requisition prioritization frameworks, and surge-capacity plans during peak hiring periods.
Oversee use of third-party recruitment and staffing agencies.

Partnership with Operations & Leadership

Partner closely with Vice Presidents, Directors, General Managers, and site leaders to forecast staffing needs, align hiring plans with operational timelines, and understand competitive hiring practices
Translate operational requirements into recruiting strategies that account for local labor markets, seasonality, wage competitiveness, and turnover patterns.
Serve as a trusted advisor to leaders on hiring tradeoffs, market constraints, and workforce availability.

Talent Pipelines & Workforce Partnerships

Build and maintain ongoing talent pipelines for frontline, seasonal, and returning associate roles.
Establish relationships with colleges, universities, trade schools, hospitality programs, workforce agencies, and community organizations.
Oversee and expand the internship program, seasonal leadership pipelines, and early-career hiring initiatives.
Develop rehire and return-season strategies to improve retention and reduce time-to-fill.

Systems, Metrics & Process Optimization

Track and manage all open requisitions across multiple locations; maintain real-time visibility into vacancy status and seasonal hiring progress.
Monitor and analyze recruiting metrics including time-to-hire, time-to-start, source-of-hire, applicant conversion rates, and seasonal fill rates.
Use data to identify bottlenecks, improve recruiter productivity, and inform staffing decisions during peak periods.
Implement, administer, and continuously optimize the applicant tracking system (ATS) for high-volume recruiting workflows, batch hiring, and reporting.

Job Boards, Employer Visibility & Sourcing Channels

Optimize use of hospitality- and retail-focused job boards and sourcing platforms, including CoolWorks, Indeed, LinkedIn, and similar channels.
Manage posting strategies, budgets, and performance tracking to ensure maximum applicant flow during peak hiring windows.
Ensure job postings are clear, compelling, and aligned with employer branding for frontline and seasonal candidates.

Key Requirements

Demonstrated experience as a working recruiting manager actively filling roles while leading a recruiting team.
Experience with high-volume recruiting for hourly, frontline, and multi-site operational roles.
Experience supervising recruiters or coordinating hiring teams across multiple locations.
Strong working knowledge of applicant tracking systems and high-volume recruiting workflows.
Familiarity with wage competitiveness, turnover dynamics, and labor availability in hospitality or retail environments.
Strong operational planning and seasonal workforce management skills
Data-driven approach to staffing and recruiting decisions
Ability to operate with urgency in fast-paced environments
Clear, practical communication with operational leaders
Hands-on leadership style with a focus on results and accountability

Experience staffing seasonal operations, new site launches, or contract-driven environments.
Experience building internship, seasonal leadership, or returning-associate pipelines.
Knowledge of federal and state employment laws applicable to seasonal employment.

Education and/or Experience

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Experience: 7–10 years of progressive talent acquisition experience, including high-volume and seasonal recruiting.

Salary: Starting at $100k DOE
