You'll primarily work remotely, with occasional in-person appearances at recruitment events, tutor trainings, and partner-school meetings.

- Screen resumés, conduct phone/Zoom interviews, and run structured teaching demos to assess instructional prowess and classroom readiness.
- Coordinate background checks, reference verifications, and DOE fingerprinting.
- Oversee the offer and onboarding process, ensuring every new hire is classroom-primed and logged in our HRIS/ATS (Workable, Salesforce).
- Track funnel metrics (time-to-fill, pass-through rates, tutor quality KPIs) and deliver weekly leadership dashboards.
- Partner with the Program Manager to forecast staffing needs and schedule tutors for active programs.
- Represent Toolkit Tutors at recruitment fairs and occasional evening/weekend events (≈ 5–6 times per year).
- Take full ownership of - and meticulously document - recruitment processes to enable rapid scaling while maintaining top-notch quality.
