The Opportunity

Following a record-breaking launch in mid-2025---generating $1M in revenue within its first five months---this high-growth technical staffing firm is aggressively expanding its sales leadership. Backed by a $60M industry leader, the firm provides the financial muscle of a national player with the agility, transparency, and "people-first" culture of a startup.

With a foundation of 50+ active enterprise contracts already in place. This role is about more than just cold calling. It's about building a legacy. We are looking for elite Business Development professionals who are tired of micromanagement and ready to "build and keep" their own high-value territory.

The Role

  • Market Expansion: Drive new business within Engineering, Life Sciences, or specialized IT (ideally aligning with Manufacturing or the Tech space).
  • Inherited Foundation: Immediate access to sell into elite, household-name client accounts. You will have a strong foundation out of the gate while being expected to supplement this base by bringing on 2--3 new strategic accounts per year.
  • Hub Delivery Model: You focus entirely on client strategy and market acquisition. You will be supported by a dedicated hub of 20+ recruiters---ensuring your requirements are filled with speed and precision without you ever having to manage the internal delivery team.
  • Autonomy: We operate on a "treated like an adult" philosophy. No arbitrary KPIs or management breathing down your neck---if you are a proven producer, you are given total professional freedom.

The Requirements

  • Experience: 2--5+ years of proven staffing sales success within Engineering, Life Sciences, or Industrial IT markets.
  • Track Record: A documented history of winning and retaining accounts at a high level (All-Stars, President's Club, or Top Producer status).
  • The "Entrepreneur" Mindset: Professionals who want a seat at the table. If you have a strong network and can bring 1--2 key accounts with you, we offer a dedicated path to maximize that revenue.

Market-Leading Compensation & Rewards

  • Strategic Salary Growth: Your base scales with your success. We offer five incremental $2,000 salary increases triggered automatically as you achieve and maintain weekly GP milestones (scaling your base up to an additional $10,000 as you move from $5k to $25k weekly GP).
  • Aggressive Tiered Commission (Weekly GP-Based):
    1. $5,000 -- $10,000 weekly GP → 10% commission
    2. $10,001 -- $20,000 weekly GP → 20% commission
    3. $20,001+ weekly GP → 30% commission
  • Named Account Ownership: Designate 3--4 strategic accounts that you bring to the business. For these accounts, you will receive a standalone 40% of profit after EBITDA (exempt from your standard weekly GP calculation), allowing you to build true long-term wealth.
  • Equity-Style Profit Sharing:
    • 1% profit sharing upon achieving $500,000 in cumulative GP.
    • An additional 1.5% profit sharing upon hitting $1,000,000 in cumulative GP.
  • Benefits: Unlimited PTO and a strict "you build it, you keep it" territory philosophy---we will never cut your commissions or shrink your boundaries as you scale.

ZERO Micromanagement

We are looking for self-starters who are tired of heavy corporate oversight and want to get significantly more out of what they bring in. If you have the tenure, the corporate relationship pedigree, and the drive to scale a premium territory, this is your next career move.
