M Force Partners | Talent Acquisition, Recruiting/Staffing Opportunity

\n

\n

About M Force Partners:

\n

\n

M Force Partners is a nationally ranked recruiting/staffing and executive search firm delivering contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire, and retained search solutions across multiple industries:

\n

\n

• Engineering & Technical

\n

• Professional Services

\n

• Healthcare

\n

• Private Equity

\n

• Executive Search

\n

\n

As an EOS-run organization, we operate through a proven delivery framework - The M Force Way - built around structured search execution, true client partnership, and high-quality hiring outcomes.

\n

\n

We are growing and adding a true business development sales professional who wants ownership of their accounts, strong recruiting support, and the ability to build long-term revenue, not just chase one-off deals.

\n

\n

The Role:

\n

\n

This is a full-cycle sales position focused on new business development and client growth.

\n

You will generate opportunities, own relationships, and partner with our recruiting delivery team to execute successful searches.

\n

\n

This is not a transactional sales seat - you will operate as a talent advisor and account owner.

\n

\n

What You’ll Do:

\n

\n

Business Development

\n

• Prospect and generate new clients (calls, meetings, networking, LinkedIn, events)

\n

• Identify hiring needs and position M Force as the solution

\n

• Secure contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire, and retained search agreements

\n

\n

Client Ownership

\n

• Serve as primary contact for your accounts

\n

• Build relationships with hiring leaders and executives

\n

• Manage ongoing partnerships and retention

\n

\n

Search Leadership

\n

• Lead intake calls and define search strategy

\n

• Drive communication between client and recruiting team

\n

• Guide interviews, feedback, and offer process

\n

\n

Account Growth

\n

• Expand existing accounts and develop long-term partnerships

\n

• Identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities

\n

• Manage pipeline and revenue targets

\n

\n

What Success Looks Like:

\n

• Consistent outbound activity

\n

• New client acquisition

\n

• Repeat business from existing accounts

\n

• High fill rate through recruiter partnership

\n

• Revenue growth and territory expansion

\n

\n

Qualifications:

\n

• 2+ years experience in recruiting/staffing sales or B2B sales preferred

\n

• Recent graduates, former collegiate athletes, transferable workforce skill sets also encouraged to apply

\n

• Comfortable generating your own opportunities (hunter mentality)

\n

• Strong relationship-building and communication skills

\n

• Ability to manage multiple searches and priorities

\n

• CRM or sales tool experience (Tracker, LinkedIn, Indeed, ZipRecruiter preferred)

\n

\n

Compensation & Schedule:

\n

• Competitive base salary (weekly pay)

\n

• Base range $50k +, depending on experience {negotiable}

\n

• Uncapped commission plan • Bonus opportunities

\n

• Full benefits (medical, dental, vision) • Unlimited Vacation

\n

• Full-time onsite

\n

\n

Why This Role Stands Out:

\n

\n

You get:

\n

• Dedicated recruiting partnership (not doing everything alone)

\n

• Ability to sell retained and direct hire - higher margin deals

\n

• Long-term account ownership

\n

• A structured delivery model that improves fill rates

\n

• Growth path into senior sales leadership

\n

If you want to build a long-term career in staffing sales - not just another desk - we’d like to talk.
