Business Development Consultant

Business Development Consultant | Recruitment Background

Sydney or Melbourne | 3 Openings | Base from $120k to $170k + Super | OTE up to $300k (uncapped).

Love winning new business but not so keen on the candidate side of recruitment?

I’m partnering with an established global professional services business that’s expanding its Australian sales team, with three new opportunities across Sydney and Melbourne.

They’re looking for commercially driven recruiters who enjoy opening doors, developing relationships and winning new clients, but would happily leave candidate sourcing and delivery to someone else.

We’re considering people at all levels, from Associate through to Associate Director, provided you’ve got the drive and ability to generate new business.

The Opportunity

This is essentially a 180-degree business development role, working with major organisations to provide specialist talent and flexible workforce solutions.

As the business development consultant, you’ll be responsible for developing new client relationships, identifying opportunities and winning business, while a dedicated talent team manages sourcing and delivery.

You’ll be joining an established international business with a strong client base, a proven service offering and ambitious growth plans in Australia.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Winning new enterprise clients and developing existing relationships.
• Building relationships with senior decision-makers
• Identifying opportunities for interim staffing and specialist resourcing.
• Managing your own business development activity, pipeline and client relationships.
• Working closely with an experienced talent delivery team to fulfil client requirements.
• Developing a strong network of clients and building recurring revenue opportunities.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re particularly interested in speaking with recruiters who have experience winning new business and enjoy the commercial side of recruitment.

You might currently be an Associate, Recruitment Consultant, Senior Consultant, Principal Consultant or Associate Director – what matters most is your ability to prospect, build relationships, win new clients and generate revenue.

What’s on Offer?

• Base salaries up to $170k + super, depending on experience.
• OTE up to approximately $300k
• Three individual-contributor opportunities across Sydney and Melbourne.
• A dedicated talent team handling sourcing and delivery.
• An established global business with major enterprise clients.
• The opportunity to focus on sales without managing a recruitment desk.
• Supportive leadership and a collaborative sales culture.
• Fully remote.
