Business Development Specialist

AI. Data. Cyber. Software. Technology. New York or Philadelphia | Investigo, part of The IN Group A real opportunity to operate at the front of the market. There's a reason the best tech recruiters are repositioning right now. The market is shifting - fast. AI, data, and advanced tech aren't "emerging" anymore - they're defining where the entire industry is heading, and the recruiters who position themselves there first are the ones who'll be writing their own numbers in 18 months' time. That's exactly where Investigo has been building for years - quietly, deliberately, and with real intent. We're hiring into our New York AI Sciences & Technology team , with a second opportunity based out of Philadelphia covering the broader tech portfolio. We're not running this as an open call - we're speaking to a small number of recruiters who genuinely want to operate at the front of this market, not catch up to it six months from now. Why now Markets like this don't stay open forever. Right now, AI and data recruitment is in that rare window where demand is exploding but the recruiter talent pool serving it hasn't caught up - which means real first-mover advantage for anyone who gets in early with the right platform behind them. That's the conversation we want to have with you. What makes this different This isn't about plugging into a saturated desk, inheriting someone else's tired patch, or being handed a target with no support to hit it. It's about stepping into a high-growth, high-demand space with genuine momentum already behind it: AI & Data performance has grown 4x year-on-year - not a one-off spike, a sustained trend 9+ years building a serious, credible US tech presence - this isn't a desk being launched from zero Deep, established client relationships across some of the most innovative businesses in the space - the groundwork is already done A platform that's proven and scaling, not something you're being asked to build from scratch with no infrastructure behind you You're not catching up here - you're joining ahead of the curve, with a running start. The market you'll operate in AI Sciences in New York (and the broader tech portfolio out of Philadelphia) is one of the most exciting and fastest-moving spaces in tech recruitment right now. Day to day, you'll be working across: AI / Machine Learning / Data Science - some of the highest-demand, highest-fee roles in the market right now Software Engineering (backend, platform, distributed systems) - deep technical roles with strong repeat business Cybersecurity & Infrastructure - a market that's only becoming more critical, not less Advanced tech roles sitting at the intersection of AI and industry - the roles that don't fit a neat box, where specialist recruiters genuinely win With real scope to build across the wider technology landscape over time - not stay boxed into one narrow lane for the rest of your career here. Why Investigo Definia-backed - a genuinely differentiated capability that opens doors competitors simply can't access. This isn't a line on a slide - it's a real commercial edge when you're in front of clients. Leadership that delivers - Amir Al-Ajooz and Jordan Fitzpatrick have built high-performing teams with real longevity, not revolving-door desks. You're joining a leadership team that's done this before and knows how to set people up to win. 8-year average tenure - in an industry built on churn, that single number tells you almost everything about the environment, the support, and whether people actually stay and build careers here. Up to 50% commission (Platinum scheme) + genuine autonomy to run your desk the way you know works, not the way a rigid structure tells you to. Multiple routes to success - specialise deep in AI Sciences, or flex across the broader tech portfolio. Your path isn't fixed the day you walk in. What success looks like here This is a platform for recruiters who want to build a genuine book of business in one of the most in-demand markets in tech - with the backing, the brand, and the client relationships already in place to make that realistic, not aspirational. Who this is for You're likely already a tech 360 recruiter who: Understands where the market is heading - AI, data, advanced tech - and wants to be positioned there before everyone else catches on Wants more ownership, autonomy, and earning potential than your current setup allows Is frustrated by limitations - whether that's structure, support, leadership, or simply a lack of scope to grow Wants to build something properly, with longevity, rather than chase short-term wins on a desk with no future We're not speaking to everyone about this. If you've already heard from us, take a proper look - this is worth your time. If you haven't yet, and you back yourself as someone who should be in this conversation, reach out directly. We'd rather have the right conversation with the right people than a hundred generic ones. View email address on click.appcast.io | View phone number on click.appcast.io #J-18808-Ljbffr Investigo
