New Business Developer

Are you looking for a growth opportunity to join a strong brand with a niche focus staffing firm who have been in their industry for some 20 years and are looking for a bright, enthusiastic New Business Developer who has the competitive drive to succeed?

Company Overview

Our client is a leading global consumer search practice with decades of experience supporting the world’s most innovative and sought-after brands. From startups to Fortune 500 companies, they understand the fundamental need to have the right people in the right positions to propel businesses to the next level. They get to know the people who make up their clients’ ethos to find the perfect candidates to support and drive organisations forward.

Our client’s recruiters personally meet and screen each and every candidate they work with to ensure the matches they make are based on the most important criteria. Their journey began when our client discovered a passion for the recruiting industry and saw a void for the niche world of fashion and shortly thereafter, in pursuit of global consumer growth acquired a boutique Executive Search firm and simultaneously launched smaller sister companies to cater to the contingent global consumer creative and tech industries. Over the years and driven by demand, the smaller sister companies were built and launched to support the niche needs of this existing client base.
