Co-Founder
Scott Heitland is the co-owner of H2 Recruiting, a manufacturing-focused recruiting firm founded in 2022 alongside Kim Heitland.
Scott brings a practical, operations-driven perspective to recruiting, shaped by an understanding of production environments, organizational efficiency, and the impact hiring decisions have on day-to-day performance.
As a leader, Scott values consistency, transparency, and disciplined execution. He believes successful recruiting requires more than filling roles—it requires aligning people, processes, and expectations. By focusing on long-term outcomes rather than short-term placements, Scott helps manufacturing organizations build stable, effective teams and helps professionals step into roles where they can lead, perform, and succeed.

Known for her honest, professional, and refreshingly down-to-earth approach, Kim helps clients and candidates navigate the hiring process with clarity, confidence, and a sense of humor when it’s needed most.
Specializing in the manufacturing industry, Kim partners with companies to identify and secure skilled professionals who align not only with technical requirements but also with company culture and long-term goals.
Kim believes recruiting doesn’t have to be rigid or impersonal to be effective. By combining integrity, clear communication, and a practical understanding of the challenges on both sides of the hiring table, she works to make the process productive, respectful, and even a little enjoyable.
