Job description

If you’re an early-career professional who is eager to learn, you take ownership, move fast, and want to lead, this is not just another job. This is a structured, entry-level, path into management.

At Summit Careers, we don’t hire experienced managers off the street, we build them. This role is designed for individuals who want to earn leadership through performance, not tenure. You’ll start by learning the business from the ground up and progress into a leadership role in under a year.

From day one, you’ll be actively involved in the core of our business:

• Recruit, interview, and onboard candidates
• Manage employees throughout their lifecycle (performance, engagement, retention)

Growth Path (Performance-Based)

This is a clearly defined, accelerated path into leadership:

• Phase 2: Account Management (~3-6 Months)
• Phase 3: Operations Manager (Ideally under 12 months)

Your progression is entirely performance-driven. The faster you produce results, the faster you advance.

Training & Development

We invest heavily in your success:

• Hands-on, real-world training from experienced leaders
• Advanced technology and AI tools to accelerate learning
• Continuous coaching and feedbackClear expectations and measurable goals

You won’t be guessing, you’ll know exactly what it takes to win.
