Job Summary
If you've successfully sold direct hire recruiting services, you already know the hardest part isn't finding great candidates, it's winning great clients.
We're looking for a true business developer who loves the hunt, knows how to open doors, and can build lasting partnerships with companies that hire. This isn't an account management role. This is a high-impact sales position where your success is measured by the clients you bring in and the revenue you generate.
You'll be backed by an experienced recruiting team that handles candidate delivery, allowing you to focus on what you do best: prospecting, closing new business, and growing client relationships.
If you're looking for unlimited earning potential, complete remote flexibility, and a commission structure that truly rewards top performers, we'd love to meet you.
What You'll Do
- Prospect and win new clients through cold calling, email campaigns, LinkedIn outreach, networking, referrals, and strategic business development.
- Sell direct hire recruiting solutions to hiring managers, HR leaders, founders, and executives.
- Conduct discovery meetings to understand hiring challenges and position customized recruiting solutions.
- Negotiate recruiting agreements and confidently close new business.
- Build a strong pipeline of qualified opportunities while consistently exceeding activity and revenue goals.
- Partner with recruiters to ensure an exceptional client experience from intake through placement.
- Expand existing accounts by uncovering additional hiring needs and building long-term relationships.
- Maintain accurate CRM records, forecasts, and sales activity.
- Become a trusted recruiting partner for your clients rather than simply another vendor.
What We're Looking For
- 3+ years of experience selling direct hire recruiting or staffing services.
- Demonstrated success generating new business through outbound prospecting.
- Proven ability to consistently close new client accounts.
- Experience selling retained, contingent, or direct hire recruiting solutions.
- Excellent communication, presentation, negotiation, and closing skills.
- Comfortable making high-volume outbound calls and leading virtual sales meetings.
- Highly self-motivated, competitive, and driven by performance-based compensation.
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple opportunities simultaneously.
- Experience using CRM platforms such as RecruitCRM, Bullhorn, HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar is preferred.
Pay: $50,000.00 - $70,000.00 per year
Benefits:
Experience:
- selling direct hire recruiting: 3 years (Required)
