  • Establish clear expectations, provide ongoing feedback, and help team members strengthen business development and recruiting skills.

  • Monitor team activity, pipeline health, and results to identify priorities, remove barriers, and improve execution.

  • Partner closely with experienced recruiters to deliver high-quality technology professionals and ensure strong client service.

  • Develop and maintain a focused target-account strategy for your own portfolio while helping the team establish effective market and account plans.

  • Expand existing relationships by introducing additional Vaco and Highspring capabilities where appropriate.

  • Collaborate across offices, practices, and markets to pursue opportunities, share best practices, and serve clients.

  • Maintain accurate client, pipeline, and activity information in our ATS and CRM system while reinforcing consistent team usage.

  • Achieve individual activity, revenue, and gross-margin objectives while driving progress toward team goals.

  • Eligibility for team performance bonuses based on the team’s results.

  • The opportunity to maintain an active book of business while developing and leading a team.

  • An experienced recruiting team that supports client delivery and revenue growth.

  • Opportunities to cross-sell across national practices and complementary service offerings.

  • An established brand combined with the autonomy to own and shape your market.

  • Recognition programs, including a five-star vacation for top performers.

  • Training, professional development, and transparent career-growth opportunities.

  • Flexible PTO, technology support, and comprehensive benefits that include 401(k), health insurance, fertility assistance, maternity and paternity leave, and more.

**What You Bring **

  • 5+ years of successful technology staffing, consulting, or solutions-sales experience.
