About Us

We are a startup recruitment agency. We are looking for an ambitious, high-billing recruitment professional to lead our front-office operations, build a diverse multi-sector desk from scratch, and share directly in the profits of the empire they help build.

Position Overview

As the Managing Partner, you will act as the operational engine of the agency. Excellent opportunity to prove yourselves and make money in the process. Initially, you will operate as a high-performing 360 Billing Manager—actively hunting new client business, managing key relationships, and sourcing candidates. As net fee margins grow, you will transition into an executive leadership role, hiring, training, and scaling a team of junior recruiters.

You will have total operational autonomy to shape the agency's sales strategy, market positioning, and internal culture, supported by the Founder’s premium corporate network.

Key Responsibilities

• 360 Desk Execution: End-to-end management of the recruitment lifecycle, including aggressive business development, client pitching, candidate sourcing, interviewing, and deal closing.
• Market Expansion: Leverage your existing market contacts to establish a stable generalist pipeline while systematically exploiting warm client introductions provided via the Founder's finance network.
• Operations & CRM Compliance: Build, clean, and maintain the company-owned CRM database, ensuring 100% of client data and candidate communication are systematically logged as company assets.
• Strategic Scaling: Define hiring profiles, milestones, and training programs to onboard junior recruitment consultants and sourcers as company profitability allows.
• P&L Awareness: Work alongside the Founder to manage pipeline forecasting and quarterly net profit goals.

What We Are Offering

• Foundation Base Salary: A steady, guaranteed base salary up to $60,000 to cover your living costs.
• Aggressive Quarterly Profit Share: A tiered payout structure giving you up to 25% of the agency’s quarterly net profits.
• Total Autonomy: Micro-management does not live here. You run the front office, set your hours, choose your strategies, and build the brand your way.
• Warm Lead Pipeline: Immediate entry into premium, high-fee financial and corporate environments via the Founder’s existing network.
• Capital Investments: Open to reasonable capital investments as required.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Experience: 5+ years of continuous experience within a staffing or recruitment agency setting, with a verifiable track record of consistent billing performance.
• Skill Set: Proven 360 recruitment expertise. You must love the thrill of cold business development and possess robust candidate headhunting skills.
• Startup Mindset: Highly resilient, self-motivated, and comfortable building operational workflows from the ground up without an enterprise-level HR department holding your hand.
• Leadership Potential: Prior experience mentoring junior consultants or leading a small team is highly advantageous but not required if you possess strong natural leadership instincts.
• Tech Savvy: Deep familiarity with modern recruitment tech stacks (CRMs like Bullhorn/Vincere, LinkedIn Recruiter, and automated sourcing tools.
