Hiring manager is person you’d report into should you get the job.

Recruiter is HR person who is helping the Hiring manager. They take care of logistics / offer letter / visa stuff etc.

One finds you and the other fires you.

They also typically are the first screen. The hiring manager doesn't have the time, nor desire to sort through resumes, search on-line for qualified candidates and do initial phone or zoom interviews.

smart

Hiring manager is usually going to be the person you'd work for directly when hired on.

Also at search firms, someone can have the title of recruiter and be a consultant that sources and recruits top executive talent.

One gets paid to hire you, the other pays you when you are hired.
