How We Work

We Partner, We Don’t Compete

Our History

Built From the Inside

KMJ Recruiting was founded after years of internal experience leading HR and talent acquisition. Kate Johnson began her career on construction job sites before moving into corporate recruiting and HR leadership.

She saw firsthand how disconnected external recruiters often were from real hiring needs. So, she launched KMJ to bridge that gap. Today, every client solution is built from the perspective of someone who’s been in your seat.

The KMJ Mission

Real Partnership, Real Results

Our mission is to provide recruiting support that functions as a true extension of your team. We prioritize quality over volume, long-term alignment over quick fills, and transparency over transactional service. Whether you’re hiring field engineers, HR leaders, or financial analysts, we tailor our approach to meet your goals. Our work is shaped by firsthand experience — not assumptions. And when we say, “strategic partner,” we mean it.

Where We Make an Impact

Built for Growth Mode

KMJ Recruiting makes the biggest impact with organizations in growth or transition. We work best with clients who don’t have a full internal team but need to scale fast — or who simply need support from someone who gets it. We focus on placing candidates who align with your mission, culture, and roadmap. And we serve professionals who are intentional about their careers.

That’s how we create lasting matches on both sides.

Who We Serve

Companies and Candidates

We partner with construction, HR, and accounting teams who want flexible, strategic recruiting support without the overhead. We also support professionals who are looking to make smart, long-term moves — not just jump for a title or raise.

Whether you’re solving for one role or scaling a department, we’re ready to help. And we only work with people and companies we believe in.
