About the Company

Our client is an established European technology recruitment and staffing firm. While the organization offers a range of talent solutions, this position is focused specifically on growing its U.S. IT contract staffing business.

Backed by a successful international operation, the company is expanding its presence in the United States and is seeking experienced business development professionals to help build and grow its U.S. IT contract staffing practice. This is an opportunity to join an established organization while helping shape the next phase of its international growth.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Business Development Manager with a proven track record of selling IT contract staffing and staff augmentation services into enterprise and mid-market organizations.

The ideal candidate has an established network of technology hiring managers, procurement teams, MSP/VMS programs, and talent acquisition leaders, along with a transferable book of business capable of generating contract staffing opportunities from day one.

While this role will initially operate as a full desk (business development and recruiting), the long-term objective is to transition into a business development-focused position as dedicated recruiting resources are added to support the continued growth of the U.S. business.

This position is focused almost exclusively on contract and temporary IT staffing. Candidates whose experience is primarily limited to permanent/direct-hire recruiting will not be the right fit.

Responsibilities

Develop new business opportunities focused on IT contract staffing and staff augmentation services.
Leverage an existing network and book of business to generate immediate contract staffing revenue.
Build and maintain relationships with hiring managers, procurement teams, MSP/VMS partners, HR leaders, and Talent Acquisition professionals.
Identify, pursue, and close new client partnerships.
Negotiate staffing agreements and consulting contracts.
Manage and grow existing client accounts through exceptional service and consistent delivery.
Partner closely with recruiting teams to deliver highly qualified technical consultants.
During the initial growth phase, recruit candidates for your own client accounts as needed.
Manage the full sales and recruiting lifecycle from client acquisition through candidate placement.
Achieve monthly and quarterly revenue goals through proactive business development.
Stay informed on technology hiring trends, staffing market conditions, and competitive activity.
Help establish and expand the company's U.S. presence.

Required Qualifications

2+ years of experience selling IT contract staffing, technology staffing, or IT consulting services.
Proven success generating new business within the IT staffing industry.
An active, transferable book of business with existing client relationships capable of producing contract staffing opportunities.
Existing relationships with technology hiring managers, procurement organizations, MSPs, VMS programs, or Talent Acquisition leaders.
Experience operating a full desk, including both business development and recruiting.
Strong understanding of IT contract staffing, staff augmentation, and contingent workforce solutions.
Experience recruiting or selling services for technical professionals such as:
Software Engineers
Cloud Engineers
Data Engineers
AI & Machine Learning Engineers
DevOps Engineers
Cybersecurity Professionals
Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to help grow a new geographic market.
Authorization to work in the United States.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience selling staffing services within the Quantitative Finance, Capital Markets, Hedge Fund, or FinTech sectors.
Existing relationships with quantitative trading firms, investment banks, hedge funds, or financial technology organizations.
Experience recruiting or placing:
Quantitative Developers
Quantitative Researchers
Financial Software Engineers
Trading Technology Professionals
