You will independently identify prospects, research decision-makers, generate leads, conduct outreach, arrange client meetings, understand hiring requirements, present recruitment solutions, prepare proposals, negotiate commercials, close new business, and support client handover to the recruitment/delivery team.

This is not a role where you wait for company-provided leads.

You will own your pipeline. You will own your follow-ups. You will own your targets. You will own your closures.

Independently generate leads through LinkedIn, cold calling, email outreach, networking, referrals, and market research.
