Managing Director (Phoenix)

Express Employment Professionals Defunct

Managing Director (Agency Staffing & Recruiting)

For Staffing Industry Professionals Ready for the Next Step

Location: Phoenix, AZ

Built a Successful Staffing Career? Ready to Run the Business Instead of Just Working In It?

This opportunity is specifically for professionals with a background in agency staffing, recruiting, and business development who are ready to take the next step in their career.

If you've spent years building client relationships, developing business, recruiting talent, managing accounts, or leading a staffing team, you may have reached a point where you're looking for more than another recruiter, account manager, or branch manager position.

We're seeking an experienced staffing industry professional to step into a Managing Director role with a clear path toward business ownership, market leadership, and long-term wealth creation.

This is not a corporate recruiting role, HR position, or traditional sales job. We're looking for someone who understands the agency staffing business and is ready to lead and grow it.

Who This Role Is Designed For

You may be an:

  • Senior Recruiter ready for leadership
  • Recruiting Manager seeking broader responsibility
  • Business Development Manager looking to run a market
  • Staffing Branch Manager seeking greater autonomy
  • Regional Staffing Leader ready for ownership opportunities
  • Agency staffing professional who wants to move from employee to entrepreneur

If you've been successful in staffing and recruiting but feel your growth opportunities have become limited, this role offers a clear path forward.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Lead and grow a staffing and recruiting operation in the Phoenix market
  • Drive new business development and strategic client partnerships
  • Recruit, train, and mentor a high-performing team
  • Manage revenue, profitability, retention, and overall business performance
  • Develop and execute growth strategies for market expansion
  • Operate with the mindset of a business owner, not simply a manager

What You Bring

Required Staffing Industry Experience

  • 5+ years of experience in agency staffing, recruiting, or staffing industry sales
  • Proven success generating new business within the staffing industry
  • Experience managing client relationships and growing accounts
  • Demonstrated success in recruiting, staffing operations, or branch leadership
  • Strong understanding of staffing metrics, margin management, and workforce solutions

Leadership & Growth Mindset

  • Entrepreneurial approach to business
  • Desire to lead, coach, and develop others
  • Confidence making strategic business decisions
  • Ambition to build something bigger than an individual desk
  • Interest in pursuing a future ownership opportunity

Why This Role Is Different

Most staffing professionals spend their careers moving from:

Recruiter → Senior Recruiter → Recruiting Manager → Branch Manager

This opportunity creates a different path:

Staffing Professional → Managing Director → Business Leader → Potential Owner

Instead of being limited by a territory, desk, commission structure, or organizational hierarchy, you'll have the opportunity to build, lead, and grow an entire market while creating long-term value for yourself and your team.

Take the Next Step in Your Staffing Career

If you're an experienced agency staffing professional looking to move beyond recruiting, account management, or branch operations and into executive leadership with a path toward ownership, we want to talk with you.

Apply today and discover what your next chapter in staffing leadership could look like.

Compensation: Competitive base salary plus performance incentives. Compensation is commensurate with experience.

Location Requirement: Phoenix-area candidates only.
