About Walbec Group

Walbec produces high-quality construction materials and delivers unparalleled professional design, engineering and construction services at its six companies, including Payne and Dolan, Northeast Asphalt, Zenith Tech, Parisi, PremierConcrete, and Construction Resources Management. Whether building bridges, stabilizing shorelines, rehabilitating structures, or providing site engineering and construction solutions for solar, Walbec is your bridge to expertise in construction and engineering.

With safety and ethics at the core of everything we do, our experienced professionals are hard at work on commercial and industrial sites throughout the Midwest.

Position Overview The Recruiter is responsible for full-cycle recruitment of professional, technical, and office-based roles across Walbec Group's heavy highway, asphalt, mining, and construction operations. This role requires a sharp sourcer and relationship builder - someone who can identify and engage hard-to-find talent in niche, industry-specific markets while managing the urgency and on-demand pace that comes with a growing construction organization. This isn't a post-and-pray role. It requires proactive pipeline development, deep industry networking, and the ability to pivot quickly when business needs shift.

Key Responsibilities

Execute full-cycle recruitment for professional and technical roles including Construction Management, Structural Engineering, Heavy Civil, Safety, Risk, and office-based positions supporting heavy highway, asphalt production, and mining operations
Build and maintain proactive talent pipelines for niche, hard-to-fill roles through targeted sourcing strategies including LinkedIn, industry networks, professional associations, and direct outreach
Partner with hiring managers to develop a deep understanding of role requirements, team dynamics, and business context - going beyond the job description to source candidates who are a genuine fit
Manage multiple active requisitions simultaneously with the urgency and responsiveness expected in a fast-moving operational environment
Represent Walbec Group at industry conferences, professional events, and association meetings to build brand awareness and develop long-term talent relationships
Maintain accurate and timely candidate and requisition data in Workday ATS throughout the full recruitment lifecycle
Deliver a high-quality candidate experience through consistent, clear, and timely communication at every stage of the process
Communicate offer details compliantly and effectively, including compensation, benefits, pre-employment requirements, and start logistics
Ensure all hiring activity aligns with federal and state employment laws and internal hiring policies
Coordinate new hire orientation logistics to ensure a smooth transition from offer acceptance through first day
Track and report on recruitment metrics including time-to-fill, pipeline activity, and sourcing effectiveness

Required Qualifications

4-7 years of dedicated Talent Acquisition experience - HR generalist or HR business partner experience will not substitute for hands-on recruiting experience
Strong sourcing skills with proven ability to build pipelines for niche or hard-to-fill positions
Experience managing a varied requisition load in a fast-paced, on-demand environment
Hands-on experience with Applicant Tracking Systems; Workday experience a plus
Strong knowledge of employment law and compliance requirements
Exceptional relationship-building, communication, and organizational skills
Comfortable shifting priorities quickly and maintaining quality output under pressure

Preferred Qualifications

Experience recruiting within construction, engineering, infrastructure, or industrial sectors
Familiarity with heavy civil, asphalt, mining, or safety/risk professional talent markets
Active participation in industry associations or professional networks relevant to construction or engineering
