POSITION SUMMARY

The Recruitment & Community Home Care Outreach Specialist serves as a vital link between the agency’s internal operations and its visibility within the community.

In the recruitment function, the specialist is responsible for sourcing, screening, onboarding, and supporting the retention of qualified caregivers. This includes overseeing job postings, coordinating pre-employment checks, assisting with orientation and training, and maintaining operational readiness to meet client demand.

In the community outreach function, the role focuses on building partnerships with referral sources, promoting services through community events and presentations, supporting intake efforts, and identifying new opportunities for business growth. The specialist also serves as a liaison between new clients, families, and caregivers to ensure smooth transitions and high-quality care delivery.

This position is ideal for a compassionate, highly organized individual who thrives in both structured office settings and hands-on, field-based work. The ideal candidate is a confident communicator, a natural relationship builder, and someone deeply committed to supporting both caregivers and the families they serve.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
