Our organization is a leader in STEM talent solutions, supporting clients across the U.S. with deep technical expertise and industry-leading workforce strategies. As a Principal Account Executive, you will be a driving force in our new business development efforts, focused on acquiring new clients (“new logos”) within a designated industry vertical—such as Energy/Utilities, Transportation, Retail, Big Tech, etc. across North America.

  • Build and maintain a robust pipeline of prospective clients (“new logos”) through research, outreach, and networking.

  • Develop tailored proposals and presentations that showcase our STEM talent solutions and industry expertise.

  • Lead the full sales cycle from prospecting to closing, ensuring a consultative and value-driven approach.

Industry Vertical Focus

  • Become a subject matter expert in your vertical, understanding market trends, challenges, and opportunities.

  • Leverage industry knowledge and client success stories to position our solutions effectively.

  • Collaborate with marketing and leadership to refine messaging and go-to-market strategies for your vertical.

Relationship Building & Collaboration

  • Establish strong relationships with key decision-makers and influencers at target companies.

  • Work closely with recruiting, delivery, and leadership teams to ensure alignment and support throughout the sales process.

  • Participate in industry events, conferences, and networking opportunities to build brand awareness and generate leads.

Sales Operations & Reporting

  • Maintain accurate records of sales activities, pipeline, and forecasts in CRM systems.

  • Track progress against targets and report regularly to sales leadership.

  • Continuously seek feedback and share market insights to inform strategy and improve outcomes.

At Impellam, it is our moral obligation to safeguard each other, our customers, our temporary workforce and the environment by operating an injury-free, healthy workplace that minimizes our environmental impact.

You will meet our HSE obligations by committing to:

  • Seek to prevent injury to any employee, customer, worker, or contractor.

  • Actively participating and completing compliance training as required.

  • Consider the safety implications of decisions.

Education and qualification

Essential:

  • High School Diploma, GED/ GSCEs / A Levels or equivalent credentials

 

Desired:

  • Bachelor’s degree preferred, but can be substituted for applicable experience

Work experience and attributes:

  • Proven track record in new business development, sales, or account management within staffing, consulting, or talent solutions—preferably in STEM industries.

  • Demonstrated success in acquiring new clients and growing revenue.

  • Strong executive presence, communication, and negotiation skills.
