Position Overview

We are seeking a high-performing Business Development Manager with staffing agency sales experience to drive new business growth, expand client partnerships, and increase market penetration nationwide. This role is designed for a true hunter, someone who thrives on prospecting, building relationships, closing new accounts, and growing revenue within a staffing and recruiting environment.

You will partner with an established recruiting delivery team and a collaborative sales organization while maintaining full autonomy over your book of business. There are no territory restrictions, no geographic limitations, and no commission caps, giving you complete freedom to maximize your earning potential.

This is a pure sales and business development role, ideal for staffing sales professionals who are motivated by results, relationship building, and long-term account growth.

What You'll Be Doing

* Identify, prospect, and secure new client relationships across multiple industries
* Sell staffing and recruiting solutions including contingent, temporary, project-based, temp-to-hire, and direct hire services
* Execute outbound business development activities including cold calling, virtual meetings, in-person client visits, and networking
* Build and manage strong relationships with hiring managers, HR leaders, and decision-makers
* Develop and execute strategic sales plans to drive new business and expand existing accounts
* Manage and grow client programs while ensuring long-term retention and satisfaction
* Negotiate pricing, contract terms, and service agreements to drive profitable growth
* Partner closely with recruiting teams to ensure delivery alignment and client success
* Participate in RFP and proposal responses as part of the business development team
* Leverage CRM tools, sales technology, and personal outreach to maintain a strong pipeline
* Attend networking events and industry functions to promote staffing capabilities and brand presence

Required Qualifications

* 3+ years of client-facing staffing agency experience in business development, sales, or account management
* Proven success selling staffing and recruiting services
* Demonstrated ability to prospect, cold call, and generate new business
* Strong closing skills with a consultative, relationship-based sales approach
* Experience operating in a fast-paced, metric-driven sales environment
* Ability to build trust and credibility via phone, video, email, social platforms, and in-person meetings
* Self-motivated, competitive, and results-oriented mindset
* Strong negotiation, presentation, and communication skills
* Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Teams, and SharePoint

Preferred Qualifications

* Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field
* Established professional network and history of repeatable sales success
* Experience selling staffing solutions on a regional or national level

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

* Uncapped earning potential with aggressive commission structure
* Nationwide client reach with no territory limitations
* Strong recruiting support and delivery infrastructure
* Collaborative, growth-focused sales culture
* Opportunity to build long-term accounts, not just transactional deals

Important Note - This is a true sales and business development role within a staffing and recruitment environment. Candidates must have prior staffing agency experience and a demonstrated history of generating new business.
