Recruiter - Business Development

Opening: Sales & Recruiting Position!

City: Lake Oswego, OR

Who We Are

Opti is a locally owned and operated full-service staffing agency that thrives on growth, grit, and a whole lot of personality. With offices across the Pacific Northwest (Alaska, Oregon, Washington), we specialize in long-term career placement—and we don’t just fill jobs, we change lives.

Our offices are known for loud music, big laughs, and bells ringing when we make a deal. We’re competitive, supportive, and always up for some good professional banter. If you’re looking for a stuffy, beige office environment—sorry, wrong place!

What You’ll Do

This is not a sit-back-and-wait recruiting role. This is sales with a recruiting twist (and about 75% business development). You’ll:

• Run the full desk: sales + recruiting = 360° action.
• Build and manage customer relationships from the first cold call to the celebratory placement.
• Grow your book of business like it’s your personal empire—through B2B sales, networking, and fearless cold calling.
• Match top-tier talent with companies in Manufacturing, Construction, and Transportation/Distribution.
• Be the trusted partner for both your clients and your candidates.

Translation: you’ll be part recruiter, part salesperson, part matchmaker, and part professional problem solver.

What’s In It For You

• $40k base + uncapped commission (sky’s the limit, and yes, people actually hit it)
• Medical/dental/vision/401k (after 90 days)
• 2 weeks paid vacation + PTO (48 hrs.) after your 1st year
• Ongoing professional development
• Quarterly sales meetings, contests, and plenty of prizes
• Energetic office: bells ringing, music blasting, laughs guaranteed
• Access to leadership—have an idea? Speak up, we actually listen!

What You Need to Have

• High energy & confidence (if you’re timid on the phone, this isn’t for you)
• Tenacity like a bulldog—you don’t give up after the first “no”
• “Action over analysis” mindset—you’d rather pick up the phone than overthink
• Reliable vehicle + clean driving record (yes, you’ll be out meeting people face-to-face)
• Goal-oriented—you set targets and actually hit them

Preferred (a.k.a. Things That Will Make You a Rockstar Here)

• Huge personality, eager to learn, and able to take coaching on the fly
• Loves to win (but can laugh about the misses too)
• Doesn’t just want a job—wants a career with growth, impact, and fun!
• We hire people, not résumés—so bring your energy, not just your experience!
