Job description

Account Manager / Business Development Representative

Skilled Trades & Construction Staffing | Remote | Full-Time | W2

Compensation: $70,000–$90,000 base salary + tiered commission | OTE $120,000–$300,000/year Benefits: Generous benefits, 401(k) with 3% match, PTO, and paid holidays

About the Opportunity

Our client is a construction and skilled trades staffing agency with over 20 years in business — and they're booming. They're looking for a driven Account Manager/BD Rep to fuel continued growth: fully REMOTE, full-time W2, with uncapped earning potential for someone who knows how to sell temporary skilled trades staffing and produce in a fast-paced environment.

What You'll Do

• Drive new business within skilled trades staffing
• Identify and source prospects using Apollo
• Set daily targets and execute against a sales plan
• Call prospects and book virtual/in-person meetings
• Build client relationships and grow accounts; pursue opportunities locally and nationwide
• Participate in weekly production meetings to review activity, opportunities, and problem-solve
• Maintain ongoing client relationships and communication

How It Works

Temporary staffing model: e.g., supplying electricians to a contractor at an agreed bill rate, employing and insuring the workers, paying the workforce weekly, and billing the client weekly. Selling a people-based service means the product — temporary skilled labor — is inherently unpredictable. Success requires enough staffing experience to understand that dynamic, solve problems quickly, and consistently produce in a high-growth environment.

Tools: Apollo (lead sourcing) and a proprietary ERP/applicant tracking system.

Must Haves

• Minimum 2 years of proven staffing SALES/BD experience — not entry level
• Experience selling temporary construction/skilled trades staffing
• Proven new-business development, prospecting, appointment setting, client relationship building, and territory/book development, with measurable revenue production within staffing
• Solid understanding of the temporary staffing model; ability to work independently

Nice to Have

• Existing relationships/network in skilled trades staffing
• Experience selling nationally
• Large-volume construction or data center client experience
• Strong character and work ethic
