We're looking for a highly experienced US staffing sales professional to own North American business development from day one . The ideal candidate has 8–10 years of direct, hands-on experience selling staffing or workforce solutions directly to US-based end clients, not through intermediaries, not in a support or coordination capacity, but personally owning the full sales cycle from cold outreach to signed agreement.
You know the US hiring landscape, you have real client relationships, and you can generate qualified pipeline independently — without relying on inbound leads or a support team.
Roles & Responsibilities
- Identify and directly approach US-based companies and hiring decision-makers - founders, HR leaders, TA professionals, and operations heads - who have active contractor or staffing requirements
- Generate new business opportunities for contract, remote, on-site, and contract-to-hire staffing requirements directly from end clients
- Run outbound campaigns via LinkedIn, email, calls, referrals, and professional networks - building your own outreach cadence from the ground up
- Pitch Gofer's AI-powered hiring and screening model; position it compellingly against traditional agencies and ATS-based competitors
- Conduct discovery calls to understand client hiring needs, role expectations, timelines, and budget ranges
- Coordinate with the internal team to match client requirements with suitable talent pipelines or hiring workflows
- Negotiate commercial terms and close deals in coordination with the founders
- Build and manage your own pipeline tracking using Google Sheets, Notion, Excel, or a similar tool
- Maintain daily and weekly follow-up discipline, meeting notes, and deal status updates
- Help define repeatable sales processes, outreach scripts, client qualification criteria, and proposal formats
- Share market intelligence on client objections, pricing expectations, competitor positioning, and hiring demand patterns
- Convert qualified leads into active clients,
staffing requirements, pilot projects, or paid engagements
- Build long-term client relationships that generate repeat business and referrals
Requirements
- 8–10 years of direct experience in staffing sales or workforce solutions - this means personally owning client relationships and closing deals, not indirect, coordination, or account support roles
- Proven track record of selling staffing solutions directly to US-based end clients across contract, remote, on-site, and contract-to-hire models
- Deep understanding of US staffing models: contract staffing, remote hiring, on-site hiring, contract-to-hire, and direct placement
- Existing network of US-based hiring managers, HR leaders, and startup founders - people who will take your call or respond to your message based on an established relationship
- Ability to generate and qualify leads independently, without inbound support or marketing assistance
- Robust written and verbal English communication - credible and confident in front of US decision-makers on video calls and in writing
- Hands-on experience with LinkedIn outreach, cold emailing, calling, client follow-ups, and proposal discussions
- Ability to understand both technical and non-technical job requirements across industries
- Strong negotiation, objection handling, and relationship-building skills
- Self-driven and comfortable in a contractual role where your earnings are directly tied to your performance
Preferred Qualifications
- Existing book of business or warm client relationships with US-based end clients actively hiring contractors
- Prior experience selling US IT/Non-IT staffing (White Collar only), SaaS hiring, startup hiring, technology recruitment, or AI-based recruitment solutions
- Experience selling to startups, SMBs, and enterprise hiring teams
- Understanding of common hiring pain points: resume screening quality, interview scheduling, time-to-hire, candidate drop-off, and recruitment cost
- Prior experience in a commission-linked role where personal performance directly drove earnings
