Job Description

Business Development Executive — Houston, TX (Hybrid)

Our client, an established Houston staffing and professional services firm, is investing in its next stage of growth and looking for an experienced Business Development Executive who knows how to open doors, build relationships, and create new business.

This is a true hunter role for someone who understands the staffing industry and wants the freedom to develop business through relationships — not just sit behind a desk making calls. You'll own the relationships and accounts you develop while partnering with an established recruiting team to deliver talent across Finance & Accounting, IT, and professional staffing solutions.

What You'll Do:

• Develop new client relationships throughout the Houston market across energy, manufacturing, and healthcare
• Connect with hiring managers, executives, and decision-makers through networking, referrals, LinkedIn, phone, email, and events
• Lead consultative conversations around clients' hiring and workforce needs
• Own and grow the accounts you bring in, partnering closely with recruiters to deliver strong candidates
• Identify both permanent placement and contract staffing opportunities within client accounts

What You Bring:

• 5+ years of staffing industry sales or business development experience preferred
• Proven ability to hunt, open new accounts, and generate business
• Finance & Accounting or IT staffing experience strongly preferred
• Comfortable selling both permanent placement and contract staffing solutions
• A hungry, humble, and smart mindset — competitive and driven without a “salesy” approach

Why This Opportunity:

An established firm entering a new growth stage, with strong recruiting and delivery support, existing infrastructure to support significant contract growth, and investment in AI and tools designed to free up more time for selling. Hybrid schedule (Tuesday–Thursday in-office), with increased flexibility for proven performers.
