  • If you answered yes, please keep reading.

Common titles for this role may include Administrative Assistant, Entry-Level Recruiter, and Sales Support Specialist.

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Join a fast-moving team in the tree care industry as an Administrative Assistant who splits their time between Sales and Recruiting by making outbound sales calls to customers we’re already working with, and emailing/texting with job candidates who have already applied. 

This is a hybrid role that requires strong writing/editing, accurate typing, personable phone outreach, and the ability to OPTIMIZE our recruiting software, JazzHR, by automating email templates, and texts. 

In all cases, qualified candidates will be highly computer savvy, and have experience working or volunteering in a role that required them be in contact with many people daily (retails, customer service, grocery store clerk, bartender, etc.)

Reporting to our Chief People & Strategy Officer, you will spend the first two hours of our day supporting our Client Services Manager by contacting clients to confirm they’ve received their written estimates. Later, you’ll follow up with anyone who has not yet accepted a project bid and will do post-project email surveys to ensure our clients consistently appreciate our services and would recommend us to others.  

During the second portion of your day, you’ll work inside our ATS (Applicant Tracking System) to find great matches to our open positions. You’ll send out surveys, learn to read survey results, schedule then hold phone interviews, and pass the best candidates forward for review.  When time allows, you’ll create new email templates and work to optimize the software to that it sends texts and communicates to job candidates automatically.
