About the Role
This is not a traditional recruiting role—and this is not a typical education organization.
The Connor Group is seeking an Executive Recruiter to lead teacher and education hiring for our nonprofit school, Greater Dayton School. This role is critical to building a world-class faculty and staff that will directly impact student outcomes.
You will operate with a high level of ownership, partnering with school leadership to identify, attract, and close exceptional educators—many of whom are not actively looking.

We are building something special—and talent is the foundation.
What You’ll Do
- Own full-cycle recruiting for teachers and school leadership roles
- Proactively source high-caliber educators (not just active applicants)
- Build pipelines from education, nonprofit, and mission-driven organizations
- Partner closely with school leadership to define hiring needs
- Evaluate candidates for both capability and cultural alignment
- Create a best-in-class candidate experience
- Drive urgency and close candidates in a competitive talent market
- Track pipeline, activity, and hiring metrics with discipline
What We’re Looking For
- Background in recruiting, education, or a mission-driven organization
- Strong preference for candidates with education experience (teaching, administration, or education recruiting)
- Proven ability to proactively source and engage talent
- High level of ownership, urgency, and follow-through
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- Ability to operate in a fast-paced, performance-driven environment
Why Join Us
