Director, Recruitment Delivery

ICON's People & Places organization finds, grows, and supports the talent behind ICON's robotics, software, construction, corporate, and government teams. ICON builds robotic systems that construct multi-story buildings. We commercially launched Titan, our multi-story robotic construction platform, in March 2026, have raised more than $550M, and hold more than $360M in government contracts across the Army, Air Force, DARPA, and NASA. Sustaining that growth means hiring robotics engineers, software developers, skilled trades, and cleared government talent at the same time, out of one recruiting function. The Director of Recruitment Delivery leads ICON's centralized recruiting Center of Excellence, the execution engine behind our embedded Talent Acquisition Partners. TA Partners own each search and its sourcing strategy. You own everything that executes it: the recruiters and sourcers staffed onto every search, the core recruiting craft, the platform and tooling (LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS/CRM, sourcing and AI tools), enablement, and the end-to-end candidate experience. You are accountable for the speed, quality, cost, and consistency of delivery across every business unit as ICON scales. OPERATING MODEL: The TA Partner is the search lead: they map the market, set the sourcing strategy, and manage stakeholders for their business unit. The Recruiting COE staffs recruiters and sourcers onto that Partner's search in order to execute it, running the core recruiting skillset (LinkedIn Recruiter and other sourcing platforms, outreach, screening, pipeline management) against the strategy the Partner sets. This role owns the capability and the people; the TA Partner owns the strategy and the stakeholders. RESPONSIBILITIES: Delivery capacity & staffing model Build, scale, and flex a blended pool of contract and permanent recruiters and sourcers, and staff them onto TA Partner–led searches based on demand and priority. Allocate recruiter/sourcer capacity across business units in partnership with the TA Partners, who direct each search's sourcing strategy. Own the make-vs-buy decision on recruiting labor; manage agency/contract/RPO partnerships and the contingent recruiting budget. Set delivery SLAs and hold the team accountable to them. Enablement & quality Own recruiter and sourcer training, onboarding, certification, and ongoing capability development — especially depth on the core toolset (LinkedIn Recruiter, sourcing platforms). Standardize the execution playbook — intake response, screening, and req workflow — so delivery is consistent regardless of who staffs a search. Core recruiting craft, tools & AI Define the standard search plan that starts every search: a target company map (companies, inclusion rationale, talent pool sizing, prior search history), the outreach content and cadence, and the tools to be used, produced by the staffed sourcer, or by the TA Partner on searches they run without COE support.
