With a heavy focus on mission-critical facilities, our teams collaborate seamlessly to ensure our customers receive the highest level of service in the construction industry. Our success is fueled by an exceptional workforce, and we are scaling quickly in the construction and utility infrastructure space. We are investing in the talent engine that will power that growth.\nJob Summary\nThe Talent Acquisition Recruiter partners closely with the Talent Acquisition Manager, HR leadership, and hiring managers to attract, evaluate, and secure talent across the business. This role manages full-cycle searches for positions ranging from Project Managers and field leadership to corporate functions, guiding candidates from first outreach through accepted offer.\nThis is more than a requisition-filling role. The recruiter builds trusted relationships, provides practical market insight, finds hard-to-reach talent, and delivers a responsive, professional candidate experience.\nThe ideal candidate is a resourceful recruiter with strong sourcing skills, sound judgment, and the ability to manage multiple priorities while helping Benchmark compete for talent in the market.\nKey Roles & Responsibilities\n· Manage full-cycle recruiting across field and corporate functions, including construction Project Managers, Assistant Project Managers, foremen, technicians, and other critical roles.\n· Partner with hiring managers to understand workforce needs, clarify role requirements, and provide practical market insight throughout the hiring process.\n· Source and engage candidates through LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, referrals, trade schools, associations, and local networks.\n· Deliver a responsive, professional candidate experience from first contact through onboarding.\n· Track recruiting activity and outcomes, including time-to-fill, source effectiveness, pipeline health, and offer acceptance.\n· Maintain accurate ATS records, support EEO/OFCCP compliance, and ensure complete recruiting documentation.\n· Coordinate interviews, gather timely feedback, manage candidate communication, and help move hiring decisions forward.\n· Represent Benchmark’s employer brand and build trusted relationships within the construction and utility talent market.\n· Perform additional duties as assigned.\nRequired Qualifications\n· Five or more years of full-cycle recruiting experience, preferably in construction, utilities, infrastructure, skilled trades, or a closely related industry.\n· Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field or an equivalent combination of education and experience.\n· Demonstrated success recruiting for critical roles such as Project Managers, Assistant Project Managers, field leadership, technicians, and corporate functions.\n· Strong sourcing skills and the persistence to identify and engage passive candidates.\n· Comfort using recruiting data and ATS reporting to organize priorities and improve results.\n· Ability to work independently in a remote environment while staying closely connected to hiring managers and a distributed team.\nPreferred Qualifications\n· Fluency in English and Spanish, written and verbal.\n· HR certification, such as SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, PHR, or SPHR.\n· Experience with workforce planning and talent analytics.\n· Experience recruiting in fast-growing environments or for prevailing-wage workforces.\nWork Arrangement\nWhile local residency and networks are preferred, this role can be fully remote, with the expectation of traveling to Benchmark’s headquarters in Sterling, Virginia, approximately 20% of the time. These visits support strong relationships with leadership and hiring managers and keep the recruiter connected to the operational heartbeat of the business.\nWhy Join Benchmark Utility Services\nBenchmark Utility Services offers competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and a dynamic work environment that values excellence, teamwork, and professional growth. If you possess the qualifications and skills to excel in this role, we encourage you to apply.\nEqual Opportunity Employer.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4217,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Spanish","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":true},{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":true}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Energy & Utilities","Civil & Structural Engineering","Construction"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-26T22:10:55Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":53,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.556,"p_room":0.945,"age_days":8,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["conf:3","stale_co","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/benchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/benchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T16:24:49Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":25018,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4416396},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4416396"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbenchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fbenchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fbenchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/benchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbenchmark-utility-services-talent-acquisition-recruiter"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3296927}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"benchmarkutilityservices.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3296927},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
