Your Job

As a Senior Recruiter supporting Molex operations in Nogales, you will deliver end‑to‑end recruiting for a dynamic manufacturing environment.

In this role, you will bring a clear recruiting point of view—using market insights, data, and business understanding to challenge assumptions that unnecessarily narrow talent pools and to help leaders make better, faster hiring decisions.

The team works closely with leaders across functions to forecast talent needs, prioritize critical roles, and continuously improve how the organization attracts and selects talent in alignment with Koch’s business philosophy.

Screen and assess candidates using consistent, job‑relevant criteria; coordinate structured interview plans and support interviewers in effective evaluation.
Maintain accurate requisition, pipeline, and decision documentation; ensure timely follow‑up and strong candidate communication throughout the process.
Partner with HR and business leaders to identify opportunities to improve hiring effectiveness, reduce cycle time, and strengthen selection quality through continuous learning.
Uphold compliance, confidentiality, and respectful hiring practices at all stages of the recruiting and selection process.

About the Company

Koch Industries

Private conglomerate in energy and materials

Koch Industries is a large, private, diversified conglomerate that operates in energy, chemical processing, and manufacturing. It started from an innovation that turned heavy crude oil into gasoline and grew through long‑term investments rather than short‑term market moves. The company generates value by refining fuels and producing chemical products, and it operates Georgia-Pacific, a major maker of paper and building products. Its business model relies on reinvesting most earnings back into the company to fund steady, long‑term growth rather than paying out frequent dividends or seeking quick profits. Koch differentiates itself from many competitors by staying privately owned, which reduces pressure from public markets and enables longer‑range planning. The company’s goal is to build scale and durability across its holdings by sustainable, multi‑decade growth rather than rapid, episodic gains.

Company size: 5,001-10,000
Company stage: Growth Equity (Non-Venture Capital)
Total funding: $985.2M
Headquarters: Wichita, KS
