Key Responsibilities:

  • Client Engagement: Build trust with hiring managers by understanding their talent needs and positioning our search capabilities as the solution.

  • Deal Ownership: Take the lead on pitching, negotiating, and closing new business deals with high-potential prospects.

  • Account Management: Support and grow relationships with existing clients by anticipating needs, following up on searches, and offering insights.

  • Pipeline & CRM Management: Keep meticulous records of leads, conversations, and follow-ups using modern CRM tools to manage your book of business.

 

What’s in It for You

  • Training & Development: Structured training and ongoing access to professional training programs led by industry experts.

  • Autonomy & Impact: We give you room to run, trusting you to operate independently while providing the support you need to win.

  • Remote Flexibility: Work from wherever you’re most productive—we prioritize outcomes, not micromanagement.

  • Recognition-Driven Culture: Your wins will be seen, celebrated, and rewarded.

 

Qualifications:

  • Goal-Oriented: You love closing deals and thrive in a performance-driven environment.

  • Persuasive Communicator: You have a knack for building rapport and uncovering client needs.

  • Self-Starter: You’re proactive, resourceful, and can operate independently without constant supervision.

  • Sales-Focused Background: Minimum 3 years of outbound sales experience (cold calling, prospecting, closing).

  • Recruiting Knowledge: At least 1 year of full-cycle recruiting experience - agency or in-house.

  • Bonus Points: Familiarity with the mining, energy, or heavy industrial sectors.
