Junior Recruiter at Zippymh

Zippy was founded with one mission: to make getting a loan for a manufactured home simple, fast, and fully online. We believe modern manufactured homes are affordable, well-built, eco-friendly, and stylish, but finding a lender who understands this market can be challenging. That’s why Zippy focuses exclusively on manufactured home loans, offering a seamless, digital experience. Headquartered in Dallas, TX, with an office in Tempe, AZ, Zippy provides home loans and insurance to manufactured home buyers throughout the United States. Our remote-first team is spread across cities like Dallas, Houston, Knoxville, Omaha, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and several other states and cities. Backed by institutional investors, we offer competitive pay, stock options, and excellent benefits. At Zippy, we pride ourselves on our commitment to finance happiness through the power of home. We are dedicated to enhancing consumers' financial outcomes and tackling the affordable housing crisis through cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions. THE ROLE We’re looking for a Junior Recruiter who thrives in high-volume environments and brings structure, urgency, and consistency to the hiring process. This is not an entry-level role - we’re seeking someone who already understands recruiting operations and can step in quickly to drive both execution and organization across recruiting. This role reports directly to the Director of Talent Acquisition. The Director will focus on strategic, mid-level, and senior hiring, while this role will own full-cycle recruiting for assigned high-volume, entry-level roles and own recruiting operations across the function. You’ll play a critical role in keeping everything moving - from sourcing and screening to scheduling and candidate experience - while also ensuring recruiting operations run smoothly across all roles. You’ll also support the Director with coordination on more complex searches and contribute to improving recruiting processes and infrastructure as we scale. Think of this role as a hybrid between a recruiter and a recruiting operator - someone who can move candidates through the funnel while helping build the systems that keep hiring efficient. If you enjoy being in the middle of the action, figuring things out, and helping build something that’s still evolving, you’ll do well here.
