About the Role

Honey Homes is hiring a driven, inquisitive, and resourceful Recruiter to help build its nationwide handyperson workforce. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys discovering great talent, creating systems that scale, and using technology to make recruiting faster and more effective.

You will partner closely with the National Operations Lead and own a critical growth lever from the start: bringing the right people into the business quickly. AI tools, including Claude, will be part of your day-to-day workflow to improve screening, outreach, and overall recruiting efficiency.

No previous recruiting background is necessary. The company is prioritizing curiosity, energy, and the ability to help build and improve the function from the ground up.

What You'll Own

• Manage the end-to-end hiring process to bring on 10 or more handypeople each month across the country.
• Create and sustain a strong candidate pipeline through proactive and inventive sourcing.
• Introduce AI-enabled screening and outreach methods to expand the funnel and shorten hiring timelines.
• Explore new sourcing channels and test different approaches to learn what works best for tradespeople.
• Own the candidate journey so it stays quick, friendly, and professional from first outreach through day one.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Find candidates and review resumes across platforms such as Indeed, Craigslist, and other channels.
• Keep candidates interested and informed throughout each stage of the hiring process.
• Create and update job listings while maintaining a clean and accurate ATS record in Ashby.
• Arrange interviews, gather feedback, and ensure hiring managers stay aligned.
• Build AI workflows with Claude to automate repetitive sourcing and screening tasks.
• Support offers and onboarding, making sure each hire is closed out properly.

What We're Looking For

• Strong enthusiasm for building processes from scratch and improving them continuously.
• Comfort with high-volume work and repeated outreach, including making many calls in a day.
• Quick adoption of new tools, especially AI, and the ability to apply them to real recruiting challenges.
• Persistence and initiative when obstacles come up, with a habit of finding alternative solutions.
• Clear, warm, and approachable communication style.
• No recruiting experience required; the company will teach the role. Energy, optimism, and grit matter most.

Why Join Honey Homes

• Meaningful ownership from day one, with the opportunity to shape national hiring growth.
• Direct exposure to the CEO and leadership team, with work that is visible and valued.
• Room to grow as the company expands into additional markets.
• AI tools are embedded into daily work rather than treated as a side feature.

Work Setup and Compensation

The position is based in Oakland, CA and follows a hybrid schedule with four in-office days per week.

This is a full-time role with compensation of $65,000, plus benefits and stock options.
