About Hand Over Hand LLC

At Hand Over Hand, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. As a leading provider of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, we partner with families to empower children with autism and developmental disabilities. Our work is deeply mission-driven: we’re here to make a difference in the lives of children and their communities.

Our culture is collaborative, supportive, and purpose-filled. We celebrate growth of our team, of our families, and of ourselves. If you’re passionate about early childhood development and want to do meaningful, hands-on work that truly changes lives, you’ll feel right at home here.

Why This Role Matters

This isn’t just a recruiting role; it’s the engine behind our growth! As the Talent Acquisition Manager, you will lead a high-impact, data-driven recruiting function responsible for building the workforce that powers our clinical and operational success. Every hire you influence directly impacts access to care, client outcomes, and organizational performance.

From scaling high-volume pipelines for RBTs to attracting top-tier BCBAs and operational leaders, you’ll design and execute strategies that ensure we have the right people, in the right roles, at the right time. If you’re energized by turning hiring challenges into scalable solutions and want to see your work translate into real-world impact, this role is for you.

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Drive workforce growth: Build and execute recruiting strategies aligned with caseload demand, waitlist reduction, and service expansion
  • Increase applicant volume: Design multi-channel sourcing strategies that generate strong, consistent candidate pipelines
  • Own full-cycle recruitment: Lead hiring from sourcing through offer, ensuring speed, quality, and candidate experience
  • Optimize hiring efficiency: Improve time-to-fill, conversion rates, and offer acceptance through structured processes and data insights
  • Partner with leadership: Align hiring priorities with Operations, Clinical Leadership, and HR to meet business goals
  • Strengthen employer brand: Position Hand Over Hand as an employer of choice in a competitive ABA market
  • Elevate hiring quality: Implement structured interviews, scorecards, and training to improve selection decisions
  • Leverage data for impact: Analyze recruiting metrics to continuously refine strategy and drive measurable improvement

What You’ll Own & Elevate

  • End-to-end recruitment strategy across clinical and operational roles
  • High-volume hiring pipelines for RBTs, Behavior Therapists, and clinical staff
  • Talent pipelines for hard-to-fill roles, including BCBAs and leadership positions
  • ATS optimization, workflow design, and recruiting process standardization
  • Recruitment marketing campaigns and sourcing channel performance
  • Candidate experience from first touchpoint through onboarding
  • Key recruiting metrics, including application volume, time-to-fill / time-to-hire, offer acceptance rate, cost per hire, source effectiveness, and funnel conversion rates

Who You Are

  • A strategic and hands-on talent leader who thrives in fast-paced, high-growth environments
  • Data-driven and comfortable using metrics to guide decisions and improve outcomes
  • A strong communicator who can influence hiring managers and executive stakeholders
  • A builder: you enjoy creating systems, processes, and scalable recruiting models
  • Solutions-oriented, adaptable, and able to navigate ambiguity with confidence
  • Passionate about connecting great people to meaningful work

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business, Psychology, or related field
  • 5+ years of progressive talent acquisition experience, including leadership responsibility
  • Experience in high-volume recruiting and workforce planning (required)
  • Experience in healthcare, behavioral health, or ABA environments (strongly preferred)
  • SHRM-CP or PHR certification (required)
  • Strong expertise in ATS platforms, recruiting analytics, and process optimization
  • Proven ability to improve recruiting KPIs and drive hiring outcomes

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Competitive compensation: Based on experience and recruitment performance
  • Comprehensive benefits package: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO, sick time, and more
  • Hybrid flexibility: A thoughtful blend of remote and in-person work that supports productivity and balance
  • High-impact role: Your work directly drives growth, access to care, and client outcomes
  • Growth-focused culture: We invest in leadership development and continuous improvement
  • Collaborative environment: Partner with passionate leaders across clinical, operations, and HR
  • Purpose & pride: Build the teams that make life-changing services possible
  • Meaningful work: Everything you do helps children gain skills that last a lifetime
