Job Description

Are you a results-driven sales professional with 5+ years of experience in the dynamic world of staffing—ideally IT staffing? We’re looking for a strategic and ambitious Sales Lead & Account Executive to join our IT Services division. This is your chance to make an impact, build relationships, support a growing team, and drive success in a fast-paced, high-reward environment.

As a Sales Lead & Account Executive, you are confident in sales and business development strategy. You will lead by curiosity and seek to build a deep understanding of your buyers, your industry, and your competitive offerings. You will turn to data and performance measurement to support your decisions and to identify areas of opportunity. You can balance the needs of your clients and carry a deep sense of pride in being an ambassador to our values and mission, and as a culture-driver.

Beyond business, you are connected to your work through your purpose and your values. You are authentic, understand the importance of diplomacy, and you are conscious of your ability to positively impact a team. You act with accountability and gratitude. Environments that are dynamic, inclusive, innovative, and energetic are where you do your best work. You have a learner-mindset, and you believe in the power of challenging the ways that we work.

We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package. This includes remote work options, flex days, career pathing opportunities, and continuous access to a collaborative team and resources to help you succeed. If you’re ready to bring your expertise, energy, and entrepreneurial spirit to a role that offers exciting challenges and endless opportunities, we want to hear from you!
