    $90000–$130000 yearly
    Full-time
    East Bronx, The Bronx

    About the Company: Founded in 2008 by Ross Sapir, Roadway Moving is built on the core principles of accountability, kindness, generosity, and dedication. These values drive a culture of excellence, where our people not just our trucks, set us apart in a crowded industry. We believe in investing in both our employees and our clients, fostering an environment rooted in respect, urgency, clear communication, and appreciation. At Roadway, we don't just move boxes, we move lives, and we do it with a commitment to making the experience remarkable for everyone involved. Right here in the Bronx, where it all began back in 2008, that same hard working, big hearted spirit is still what drives us every day. Roadway is a company that has grown fast and is still growing. We hire at volume and we hire across every level, from movers and drivers to directors and executives. This seat owns the hiring that sits above the field, and sets the standard for the hiring that happens in it. What you will own • Full cycle recruitment for corporate and leadership hiring: sales, operations, dispatch, logistics, marketing, finance, and management roles through the VP level. Intake, sourcing, screening, interview process design, offer negotiation, and close., • Hiring manager partnership. You define the role with the manager before it opens, calibrate early, and hold the process to a standard instead of chasing whoever moves fastest., • The ATS as system of record. Postings, pipeline hygiene, candidate communication, clean data., • Hiring metrics that leadership actually uses: time to fill, source quality, offer acceptance, cost per hire, and where the process is breaking., • Oversight of the field recruitment process currently run by the HR team. You are not doing the volume screening yourself. You set the standard, watch quality and throughput by market, and step in when a location falls behind., • Depending on level, this role may include a management line into our global recruiting and sourcing team. If you come in without that experience, it is the path this seat grows toward. Who this is for • You have presence. You can sit across from a VP candidate or a warehouse manager and be credible with both., • You work hard and you work fast. Our growth does not slow down while a search is open., • You handle pressure without dropping quality. Multiple open roles, competing priorities, and a hiring manager who needs someone yesterday are normal conditions here., • You want to learn. You ask questions about the business, not just the job description., • You take ownership. When a search stalls, you diagnose it and change the approach instead of reporting that the market is tough. Background • We care more about how you operate than where you have operated. Recruiting agency experience, in-house talent acquisition, or high-volume hiring backgrounds all translate well., • We will also consider career changers with strong sales, hospitality, or operations management backgrounds who can demonstrate the judgment, hustle, and people read that this job requires. If that is you, tell us in your application why recruiting and why now., • Comfort working onsite at least three days a week, and comfort in a business that moves at the speed of a hiring surge, are non-negotiable. This role is based in our Bronx office with a minimum of three days onsite. We work closely with leadership in person, and this is a collaborative environment by design. Why Roadway? We care about the people who work here, and we put real effort behind that. That looks like training that actually prepares you, managers who coach instead of just assign, and clear paths to grow. It looks like knowing the people you work with. It looks like being trusted with real work early. We have teams across the United States and internationally, and they get the same version of this company. Same standards, same investment, same care.
